BACKGROUND Oral cancer is associated initially by the presence of pre-malignant lesions or pre-malignant conditions. Oral Leukoplakia is one of the best-known pre-malignant lesions in the oral cavity that have the highest rate of malignant transformation. Numerous studies have shown an altered lipid profile in various cancers including head and neck cancers. An inverse relationship between plas...

The role of 3 p53 polymorphisms (16 bp duplication at intron 3, codon 72 Arg/Pro and intron 6 NciI RFLP at np 13494) as potential markers for indicating cancer risk remains inconclusive. In our case-control study consisting of 197 leukoplakia and 310 oral squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) patients and 348 controls, genotype frequencies at these 3 p53 loci were determined by PCR-RFLP method and anal...

The article studies the prevalence of dental diseases oral mucosa among adult population Kabardino-Balkarian Republic, Moscow and Vladimir regions; identification predictors malignancy. analysis 345 outpatient records a patient in 3 regions Russian Federation: region, Republic was carried out. It revealed that nosology’s first diagnosed patients with mucosa, leukoplakia prevailed all (15.2 %, 1...

This article is a systematic review to evaluate the role of LASER in treatment LP and OLP. These two are potentially malignant disorder with high prevalence rate transformation. Many modality been stated for same but has attracted special attention properties it possess. : The aim this research was compare effectiveness (light amplification by stimulated emission radiation) on management leukop...

Leukoplakia is defined as a predominantly white lesion of the oral mucosa that cannot be characterized as any other definable lesion. Histopathological diagnosis is needed to evaluate prognosis of this lesion. Chewing tobacco and smoking are distinct risk factors particularly among males in certain countries; however it has been noted that females or non-smokers may be at risk of malignant tran...

PURPOSE Leukoplakia is the term given to a white patch or plaque that is found mainly on the oral mucus membrane. It can occasionally be seen on the corneal surface. We report our clinical and histopathological findings in a case of unilateral corneal leukoplakia. METHODS A 26-year-old woman was referred to our hospital because of a white patch on her right cornea that continued to expand. Sh...

Curcumin has shown some promise in the prevention of oral carcinogenesis by mechanism(s) that are still not completely resolved. Messenger RNA translation is mediated in eukaryotes by the eIF4F complex composed of eukaryotic translation initiation factors eIF4E, eIF4G, and eIF4A. Overexpression of some of these components or the inactivation of initiation repressor proteins (4E-BP1) has been im...

UNLABELLED Erythroplakia and speckled leukoplakia are oral precancerous lesions that have a high potential for malignant transformation. AIM A retrospective analysis was conducted to investigate the clinicopathologic features of 13 cases of oral erythroplakia and speckled leukoplakia in patients who were seen at a center specialized in stomatology and Histopathological diagnosis of oral disea...
