Abstract

The information concerning epithelial dysplasia of the oral cavity has been relatively little published. Of the histolgic grades, most of the cases were classified as moderate and severe category. Their ages ranged from 27 to 78 years(mean 57 years). The developmental incidence by sex was superior in male by ratio of 6 : 1. Epithelial lesions were located in the buccal mucosa, Floor of the mouth, the gingiva and the tongue. It is generally believed with a few exceptions that mild degree of epithelial dysplasia do not indicate any great danger for the patient. But severs dysplasia indicates that there is a very considerable risR of malignant transformation. Surgical excision is the effective method of controlling epithelial dysplasia. The authors investigated 7 cases of epithelial dysplasia histopathologically, 2 patients of them had malignant transformation. We discuss the clinical feature, treatment, prognosis, and histopatholgic analysis with literature reviews.
