  schema:description "Cancer of the mouth and tongue, a head and neck cancer, is caused mainly by tobacco, alcohol and betel quid and is usually visible or feelable early, yet often diagnosed late. Surgery is the mainstay, with radiotherapy or chemoradiation after operation for higher-risk disease, and reconstruction to restore speech and swallowing."@en ;
