Two demographic factors that influence speech intelligibility could be identified: sex and age. It was determined that the only disease-related factor that influences speech intelligibility before therapy is the location of the tumor.CONCLUSION: The results of this study reveal that a preoperative speech intelligibility impairment in patients suffering from OSCC occurs independent of tumor stage, size of the tumor and infiltration status.",
