Oral lichen planus – retrospective study of 563 Croatian patients
2014
Objectives were to evaluate sociodemographic and clinical data of oral lichen planus (OLP) patients attending our Department from 2006.-2012. Retrospective chart review was performed. Data regarding age, gender, medical history, drugs, smoking, alcohol, chief complaint, clinical type, localization, histology, treatment and malignant transformation were registered for 563 patients. Majority of patients were female (414 ; 73.5%) and median age was 58 (range 11-94). Majority of patients did not smoke (408 ; 72.5%) and did not consume alcohol (392 ; 69.6%). Chief complaint was oral soreness (242 ; 43.3%) followed by mucosal roughness (39 ; 7%), xerostomia (17 ; 3%), gingival bleeding (11 ; 2%) …
Postsurgical Paracicatricial Cutaneous Satellitosis of Giant Cell Tumour of Tendon Sheath, Localized Type.
2011
The tenosynovial giant cell tumour (localized type) is a tumour of tendon sheaths and interphalangeal joints, affecting the digits and arising from the synovium. It is characterized by a proliferation of mononuclear cells and osteoclast-like polykaryocytes. Its propagation to the skin is an exceptional event, which can take place either in localized form in the fingertips (localized type) or in the rare diffuse form called giant cell tumour of the tendon sheath, ( diffuse type ). We report here a case of giant cell tumour with cutaneous satellites, which appeared close to and around the surgical scar following the excision of the primary lesion, in a 9-year-old boy. In the cutaneous satelli…
Oral Lichen Planus : risk factors of malignant transformation and follow up. Ten years retrospective study
2020
Background Oral Lichen Planus (OLP) is an inflammatory chronic disease. Modified World Health Organization (WHO) diagnostic criteria (2003) suggest diagnosing OLP both clinically and histologically. Furthermore, it is known the potential of malignant transformation of OLP, especially those affecting mucosa. Aims of this retrospective study on 100 patients were i) to estimate the timing of transformation of OLP lesions in OSCC in a cohort of patients observed between 2008 and 2018; ii) to assess risk factors of OLP patients diagnosed with OSCC; iii) to analyse forms of OLP evolved in cancer. Material and methods A database of 100 patients diagnosed with OLP was evaluated and clinical, histol…
