摘要：
Introduction. Patient's age is known to have no influence on either treatment or prognosis of oral squamous cell carcinoma. Observation. A 94-year old female patient, with a squamous cell carcinoma of the floor of the mouth, stage pT1pN0cM0, was classically treated by surgical tumor resection, selective neck dissection and immediate surgical reconstruction with a vascularized radial flap. Discussion. This clinical case, which could be a record taking into account the patient's advanced age, confirms that treatment decision of oral squamous cell carcinoma must not be influenced by age. Only some age-related comorbidities must be considered. (C) 2006 Elsevier Masson SAS. All rights reserved.
