| --- | --- |
| Description | This cluster of papers focuses on the epidemiology, treatment, and prognosis of head and neck cancer, with a particular emphasis on human papillomavirus (HPV)-related oropharyngeal cancer. It covers topics such as the impact of HPV infection, the role of radiotherapy and chemotherapy, survival outcomes, and the molecular landscape of head and neck squamous cell carcinomas. |
