Therefore, in this study, we decided to discuss the impact of COVID\u201019 on the stage and histological characteristics of patients with tongue cancer from March 2020 to March 2021 and compared to the previous 3 years.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>In this time series study, patients diagnosed with squamous cell carcinoma of the operated tongue cancer were divided into two groups. Patients who operated from March 2020 to March 2021 (<jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u200936) and patients who operated 3 years ago (<jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u200970) were included in the study. The results were analyzed using SPSS 21 software.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>The study found that during the pandemic, the stage of tongue cancer in patients who underwent surgery was higher than before the pandemic (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20090.01). Moreover, the depth of invasion was significantly higher during the COVID\u201019 outbreak in the pathology sample of the patients (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20090.006), while the involvement of lymph nodes and other variables between the groups was not statistically significant.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title><jats:p>COVID\u201019 has adverse effects on the diagnosis and treatment of tongue cancer. Also, it leads to advanced stages of the tumor and increases the depth of invasion of the cancer. Hence, it is important to plan correctly and appropriately for the diagnosis and treatment of these patients in conditions such as the COVID\u201019 pandemic.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1002\/hsr2.1832","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,1,23]],"date-time":"2024-01-23T05:14:09Z","timestamp":1705986849000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Increasing stage and depth of invasion (DOI) in patients with tongue cancer during the COVID\u201019 pandemic: A time series study"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"7","author":[{"given":"Maryam","family":"Akbari","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Otorhinolaryngology Research Center, Amir Alam Hospital Tehran University of Medical Sciences Tehran Iran"},{"name":"Otorhinolaryngology Research Center, Department of Otolaryngology and Head and Neck Surgery, Amiralmomenin Hospital, School of Medicine Guilan University of Medical Sciences Rasht Iran"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Samira","family":"Ahadi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Otorhinolaryngology Research Center, Amir Alam Hospital Tehran University of Medical Sciences Tehran Iran"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ebrahim","family":"Karimi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Otorhinolaryngology Research Center, Amir Alam Hospital Tehran University of Medical Sciences Tehran Iran"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Farrokh","family":"Heidari","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Otorhinolaryngology Research Center, Amir Alam Hospital Tehran University of Medical Sciences Tehran Iran"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Maryam","family":"Lotfi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pathology, Amir\u2010Alam Hospital Tehran University of Medical Sciences Tehran Iran"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Sajjad","family":"Rezvan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Radiology Qom University of Medical Sciences Qom Iran"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Alireza","family":"Mazarei","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Otorhinolaryngology Research Center, Amir Alam Hospital Tehran University of Medical Sciences Tehran Iran"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-9949-890X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Amin","family":"Beheshti","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Otorhinolaryngology Research Center, Amir Alam Hospital Tehran University of Medical Sciences Tehran Iran"},{"name":"Department of Pathology, Amir\u2010Alam Hospital Tehran University of Medical Sciences Tehran Iran"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,1,22]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_12_2_1","unstructured":"StevensonMM AnandJ BradenCD PetruzzelliGJ.
