Mandibular cancer is a type of oropharynx. Oropharynx easily occurs in soft palate, tongue base, and tonsil, etc. Is a common location.

Mandibular cancer is one of oropharynx cancers.

This is because the lower jaw is contained within the anatomic location of the oropharynx.

Oropharynx is a common place where soft palate, tongue base, and tonsil are common.

Usually, the diagnosis is often misdiagnosed as inflammation at the beginning, such as tonsillitis, or sore throat, etc., and often feel ear pain,

This type of reason is due to the glossopharyngeal nerve, whose sensory network is distributed to the ears and oropharynx.

Then came the trismus, which was due to tumor expansion and reached the retromandibular space.

Another paralysis of the tongue is caused by the tumor expanding to invade the hypoglossal nerve.
