Abstract: The role of multidisciplinary collaborative diagnosis and treatment (MDT) in improving the prognosis of colorectal cancer, lung cancer, breast cancer and other tumors has been proven, but the research of oral cancer MDT is still in the exploratory stage and has not formed a complete conceptual system and operating mode. Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is one of the main malignant tumors of the head and neck, with a 5-year survival rate of less than 50%. This article mainly elaborates on the difficulties of oral cancer treatment, the advantages of MDT, and the progress of oral cancer MDT.
