Are changes of serum beta-endorphin by programmed exercise training correlated with improvement of clinical symptoms and quality of life in female mitral valve prolapse syndrome?

Local excision of T1 and T2 buccal mucosa cancers with pathologically negative margins had a high rate of local recurrence in our series. Low T-stage and negative margins are not adequate predictors of local control. Even early buccal tumors may benefit from adjuvant therapy to enhance local control.
