Dot plot demonstrates cases of oropharyngeal cancer in women relative to previous diagnosis of cervical cancer. Cases above 0 denote OPSCC cases diagnosed after cervical cancer. Mean time from diagnosis of cervical cancer to OPSCC is 15.3 (SD 16.1) years. Mean time to diagnosis according to subsite was as follows: 14.5 years for tonsil, 18.0 years for BOT and 13.7 years for soft palate (p = 0.61 between tonsil and BOT, p = 0.92 between tonsil and soft palate).
