Extensive surgery in OSCC patients is associated with a transient shift toward postoperative systemic immune tolerance compared with patients undergoing minor surgery. However, even extensive surgery causes no signs of long-lasting systemic immunosuppression. The degree of immune tolerance that occurred was associated with the duration of surgery. This supports efforts to minimize the duration of surgery.
