We read the article with interest the study by the author Yopovinu Rhusto., et al. This study has elucidated a statistically significant and clinically relevant association between POI, PNI with LNM and locoreginal recurrence. Other pathological features: along with pattern of invasion such as depth of invasion, grade of pathological differentiation and neuro - vascular invasion are usually considered for prognostication for disease [1-6].

Keywords: Tongue; Squamous Cell Carcinoma; Pattern of Invasion (POI); Worst Pattern of Invasion (WOPI) Perineural Invasion (PNI); Lymphnode Metastasis (LNM); Tumour Budding
