Here's a National Cancer Institute fact sheet on tumor grade . It does not specifically discuss the effect of grade on the treatment plan, other than to say that there is an effect, but does offer an overview of what the different grades mean.

I expect others with a similar dx to yours will weigh in, but this is a start.

All the best,
Leslie

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.
