Oral cancer rates in India surpass those in any other nation, with patients manifesting varied disease stages, including pre-malignant phases. Tobacco chewing promotes field cancerization, and related surgical interventions can be remarkably morbid. Advanced-stage patients with frequent recurrences undergo treatments that significantly degrade their quality of life. In such instances, Photodynamic Therapy (PDT) emerges as an invaluable tool, enhancing both the longevity and quality of life. This paper elucidates two such cases benefiting from PDT, spotlighting its potential in transforming cancer care in India.
