Resumo: The aim of this study is to report the experience with late diagnosis in five patients with oral squamous cell carcinoma. Five patients (4 male and 1 female), with a mean age of 61.2 years, all smokers and drinkers, were diagnosed at an advanced stage. The locations comprised lower lip, tongue, soft and hard palate, floor and staging were, respectively, T2N0MO (ECII), T3aN1MO (ECIII), T4bN2BMO (ECIVB), T4aN3bMO. One patient was unable to obtain staging. The mean time of evolution until diagnosis was 51.8 months. The proposed treatments were surgery for 2 patients and chemotherapy/radiotherapy for 2 patients. Two patients died and 3 are still alive in follow-up. In conclusion, the prevention, screening and early diagnosis programs should be intensified because patients were diagnosed late and access to basic care should be expanded and available, resulting in a better prognosis and reduced mortality.
