What is the survival rate for head and neck squamous cell carcinoma?

user

The life expectancy for a person with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) varies widely based on several factors, including the stage at which the cancer is diagnosed, the patient's overall health, and treatment options. Generally, early-stage head and neck SCC has a better prognosis, with a five-year survival rate that can exceed 80%. However, advanced cases, particularly with lymph node involvement, might show a significant decrease in survival rates and require comprehensive treatment interventions.
