description Introduction: Carcinoma is a highly malignant tumour of epithelium that occurred in the oral cavity. One of the most common therapies given is radiotherapy, with healing, adjuvant, and palliative intentions.

The most frequent type of oral carcinoma case requiring radiotherapy was squamous cell carcinoma, by 12 (52.1%) cases. Tongue become the most common area of oral carcinoma requiring radiotherapy, by 7 (30.4%) cases. Oral carcinoma case requiring radiotherapy was most frequently found in men by 14 (60.8%) cases. The age group of 41-50 was become the majority by 7 (30.4%) cases from all of the oral carcinoma case requiring radiotherapy. Conclusion: Distribution of oral carcinoma case requiring radiotherapy in the Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Clinics of Hasan Sadikin Hospital is found in as many as 23 (20.9%) cases. Most frequent radiotherapy given is adjuvant radiotherapy (14 (60.8%) cases). The most frequent type of oral carcinoma case requiring radiotherapy is squamous cell carcinoma (12 (52.1%) cases). The most common area of oral carcinoma requiring radiotherapy is tongue (7 (30.4%) cases). Oral carcinoma case requiring radiotherapy was most frequently found in men (14 (60.8%) cases).
