Head and Neck (H&N) cancers are malignant types contributing to one-third of all cancer types in India. The actual burden of this cancer type in India is much greater than reported and reflected through the existing literature. South-East Asia is documented to face steep increase of over 75% in the number of cancer deaths in 2020 as compared to 2000. Also, on the logic of Indian population becoming nearly twice that of the world in the past 15 years, increase in cancer burden with the same proportion is anticipated.
