1. Introduction Tongue squamous cell carcinoma (TSCC) is the most common malignancy of the oral cavity [1,2]. A recent study suggested that about 45% of all oral cavity cancers were TSCCs [3]. TSCC generally affects the older age group of patients (e.g., 60 to 80 years of age) who have been exposed to tobacco and/or drinking for certain period of time. However, recent studies indicate that there has been an increasing incidence of TSCC in the younger age group [4,5,6].
