RESUMEN
La frecuencia del carcinoma epidermoide originado en mucosas de cabeza y cuello ha aumentado mundialmente en la última década, sobre todo en países con economías emergentes; el cáncer de cavidad oral ocupa el sexto lugar de todas las neoplasias. Aquí se lleva a cabo una revisión de la literatura en relación a la epidemiología y factores de riesgo en cáncer de cabeza y cuello, y se hace énfasis en la prevención del carcinoma originado en mucosas de vías aerodigestivas superiores. Se concluye que el pronóstico de los pacientes con cáncer de cabeza y cuello depende de la etapa clínica, y si bien la identificación de población en riesgo y de lesiones precursoras, así como el diagnóstico precoz disminuyen la tasa de mortalidad, el esfuerzo mayor debe hacerse en la prevención primaria.
