The 2008 treatment protocols, published by the National Comprehensive Cancer Network, are available here, on the NCCN site. You may have to register, but it is brief and painless.

The OCF site has the 2007 protocols here.

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.
