Abstract
Prior to beginning treatment, it is essential that a multidisciplinary tumour board discuss each patient's situation and devise a treatment plan for oral cavity squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC), a heterogeneous illness. One of the common postoperative consequences following oral cancer surgery is an orocutaneous fistula (OCF). This incident broadens the amount of knowledge on OCF regression after adjuvant therapy. It is also important not to give up on a relpased oncology case, just on the basis of age of the patient.
