Malignant transformation of oral submucous fibrosis
Several studies have demonstrated an independent association of deleterious oral habits such as smoking, betel quid chewing, and chewing tobacco with the occurrence of oral cancer. The potentially malignant conditions such as oral submucous fibrosis (OSF), leukoplakia, erythroplakia associated with smoking, and smokeless tobacco, have a greater prevalence in our country. OSF has high cancer tur...
متن کاملOral Submucous Fibrosis: A Chronic Deliberating Disease of Oral Cavity
Oral submucous fibrosis is chronic progressive condition of oral cavity. The condition is well recognized for its malignant potential. Usually the disease initiates with redness, blistering, and ulceration inside the mouth. It is characterized by progressive fibrosis of submucosal tissue. The pathogenesis of oral submucous fibrosis is not well understood. Betelquid chewing is the major etiologi...
متن کاملOral Submucous Fibrosis: a case report
We describe an interesting case of oral sub mucous fibrosis accompanied by severe trismus in a 23 years old man. The patient had initially been diagnosed as having internal derangement of the temporomandibular joint and conservative treatment had failed to decrease the symptoms. Despite extremely limited temporomandibular joint movement, cone beam computed tomography revealed no important abnor...
متن کاملIdentification of a combined biomarker for malignant transformation in oral submucous fibrosis
BACKGROUND Oral submucous fibrosis (OSF) is a chronic progressive disease of the oral cavity that is considered a common potentially malignant disorder in South Asia. Areca nut chewing is the main etiological factor, but its carcinogenic mechanism has yet to be proven. The purpose of this study was to identify the useful biomarkers in predicting high-risk patients with OSF. METHODS Thirty-six...
متن کاملOral Submucous Fibrosis: Review on Mechanisms of Pathogenesis and Malignant Transformation
Studies focusing on epidemiology, histopathology and molecular biology/pathology on various aspects of oral submucous fibrosis (OSF), especially in the last decade have helped to understand the pathogenesis to a larger extent. In addition research in some aspects of carcinogenesis in the background of fibrosis has also advanced significantly in the recent past allowing us to understand the mech...
