Oral lesions of psoriasis are rare clinical observations. Report on oral psoriasis that are well documented show no consistent lesion pattern. The oral lesions range in type from red plaques to white plaques to ulcers. In this report, an unusual palatal presentation of oral psoriasis with red serpiginous concentric arcs is described. The diagnosis of intraoral psoriasis is supported by clinical...

Background: Lymphoma is a malignant proliferation of lymphoid cells. External T-cell lymphoma is very rare. Lymphomas are neoplastic growth of lymphocytes caused by organisms like EBV, HIV, etc. This malignancy is classified as Hodgkin’s lymphoma and non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma. Oral lymphomas account for a small percentage of head and neck malignancies, and intraoral lymphoma is rare and mostly see...

Cancer-associated fibroblasts are amongst the key tumor microenvironment components that determine invasion, progression, and resistance to cancer therapeutics. Histologically normal mucosa adjacent oral squamous cell carcinoma has been shown harbor cancer-associated which aid in loco-regional recurrence of lesion. Read more at JCTRes.com

Secondary oral cavity neoplasms are rare. We describe a case of an indurated, nonulcerating gingival lesion in a 59-year-old nonsmoking man with no family history of lung cancer. The lesion was the presenting symptom of metastatic lung adenocarcinoma. Reviewing the literature, we find that primary lung cancer among men is one of the most common cancers to metastasize to the oral cavity. Renal a...

The most predominant sites for oral malignant melanoma (MM) are the maxillary gingiva and hard palate that usually involve parts of the maxilla. The signs and symptoms of oral MM vary widely and clinically can present anywhere from a small irregular pigmented or discolored site, to a friable-pigmented lesion, to ulceration, to a non-pigmented mass. Many of patients do not show early symptoms, l...

Oral leukoplakia is a common potentially malignant oral lesion. Most scholars consider that its cancerization follows a multistep process of gradual progression. If surveillance and assessment could be performed at earlier stages to assess the risk of cancerization, the probability of malignancy would obviously be reduced. In this paper, we report on a patient with cancerous oral leukoplakia in...

Introduction: Heterotopic gastrointestinal cyst of the oral cavity is an extremely rare lesion with fewer than 40 cases reported in the English literature. It usually involves the soft tissue covering the floor of the mouth and the tongue. Lining of this lesion resembles gastric or intestinal mucosa. Case Report: In this report we describe the lesion in two boys and discuss their pathogenesis.

IgG4-related sclerosing disease is a distinct clinicopathologic entity known to involve the maxillofacial region, particularly the salivary, lacrimal, and pituitary glands. We report a case with lesions involving the tongue and palatine tonsil with associated skin lesions. A 45-year-old female patient presented with a history of soreness, dysphagia, and an asymptomatic rash involving the upper ...
