B. S. M. S. Siriwardena,Yasusei Kudo,Ikuko Ogawa,M N G P K Udagama,Wanninayake Mudiyanselage Tilakaratne,Takashi Takata +5 more
TL;DR: Examination of VEGF-C expression and its correlation with lymphatic status, including the number of lymph vessels and lymphatic invasion, tumour invasion and metastasis in OSCC suggests that VEGf-C may play an important role for lymphangiogenesis and invasion in the metastatic process and can be a strong predicting factor for metastasis of OSCC.
Journal ArticleDOI
Analysis of histopathological and immunohistochemical differences of oral squamous cell carcinoma in young and old patients in Sri Lanka.
B. S. M. S. Siriwardena,B. S. M. S. Siriwardena,A Tilakaratne,E. A. P. D. Amaratunga,M N G P K Udagama,Ikuko Ogawa,Yasusei Kudo,Takashi Takata,Wanninayake Mudiyanselage Tilakaratne +8 more
TL;DR: Although tumours of the young patients showed more nuclear aberrations, OSCC of the older patients is proliferative and showed higher metastatic rate.
Journal ArticleDOI

B. S. M. S. Siriwardena,I K Rambukewela,T N Pitakotuwage,M N G P K Udagama,Pallegoda Vithanage Ranjith Kumarasiri,Wanninayake Mudiyanselage Tilakaratne +5 more
TL;DR: The proposed predictive model may provide some guidance for maxillofacial surgeons to decide the appropriate treatment plan for OSCC, especially in developing countries and may guide surgeons in planning surgical management of neck nodes.
