I'm sure this will get picked up by the OCF RSS news feed -- but for those who don't subscribe to that feed, the Chicago Tribune has an article today (Sun. June 8) about the HPV connection to oral cancer, along with a short sidebar on screening.

April 2006: Husband dx by dentist with leukoplakia on tongue. Oral surgeon's biopsy 4/28/06: Moderate dysplasia; pathology report warned of possible "skip effect." ENT's excisional biopsy (got it all) 5/31/06: SCC in situ/small bit superficially invasive. Early detection saves lives.
