squamous cell carcinoma arising in oral lichen planus
نویسندگان
چکیده
it has been argued that oral lichen planus (olp) may increase the risk of oral cancer. patients with olp may be at an increased risk for developing of oscc (oral squamous cell carcinoma). here, the author reports a case of olp initially presenting with a clearly benign olp lesion that transformed into oscc over a course of 18 months. this report may provide a clear evidence for olp lesion as a potential pre-malignant state.

Squamous cell carcinoma arising from chronic hypertrophic Lichen Planus: A case report
Association of lichen planus and cutaneous malignancies is rare. Reports of neoplastic changes are mostly related to buccal chronic erosive lichen planus. We report herein a 29-year-old man who developed squamous cell carcinoma on previous lesions of chronic hypertrophic lichen planus of lower legs. Careful follow up of patients with chronic lichen planus and biopsy sampling of uncommon lesions...
متن کاملSquamous Cell Carcinoma Arising from Hypertrophic Lichen Planus
Lichen planus is not a common premalignant condition; a study showed only 8 SCC developing in 2071 patients of lichen planus followed up for over 9.9 years.[1] LPH and oral lichen planus are two variants which have a higher risk of malignant transformation. Till December 2015, 38 cases of SCC developing in LPH have been reported.[2] SCC arising from LPH is most commonly seen on the lower limbs,...
متن کاملSquamous Cell Carcinoma Arising Within Gingival Lichen Planus
Oral squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is a malignant tumour of the epithelial cells of the oral mucosa and accounts for more than 90% of all head and neck cancers (Silverman, 2001). SCC’s may arise in different areas of the oral cavity, the most common sites being the posterior ventero-lateral border of the tongue and floor of mouth (McGaw and Pan, 1996). Gingival SCC’s account for approximately 9...
متن کاملOral-esophageal lichen planus associated with oral squamous cell carcinoma.
Although ultraviolet radiation may be an important etiologic factor for BCCs on sun-exposed areas, the cause of their occurrence on areas not exposed to sun has not been identified. Chronic skin irritation, previous trauma, exposure to ionizing radiation, coal tar and other carcinogens or immunosuppressive drugs may be responsible for the development of tumors at uncommon sites.[1,2] In our cas...
متن کاملSquamous cell carcinoma in hypertrophic lichen planus.
Neoplastic transformation (development of squamous cell carcinoma / verrucous carcinoma) in lichen planus has been described, especially in the oral form of the disease where an estimated 0.3-3% of patients may develop squamous cell carcinoma. Malignancy though uncommon with cutaneous lichen planus has been described in chronic hypertrophic lesions of lichen planus on the legs, including a case...
متن کاملComparison of Expression of p53 and bcl-2 Markers in Oral Lichen Planus and Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma
Background and Aim: It has been suggested that oral lichen planus (OLP) can be a potential premalignant lesion. Reports are also available on the role of bcl-2 and p53 proteins in malignant transformation of OLP into oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). Due to controversies in these reports, the present study aimed to compare the expression of p53 and bcl-2 markers in OLP and OSCC. Materials a...
