“…We found 93 (62.0%) suffering from maxillary gingival swelling. Another study led by Carod-Artal et al also found maxillary gingival swelling among most epulis cases [19,20] . Chi-square test was applied for both fibrous epulis and pyogenic granuloma, and non-significant gender association was noted (p-value =0.160) as mentioned in Table-IV.…”

BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVES: Gingival enlargement is a common characteristic of gums infection. Enlargement of the gums can possibly occur due to numerous factors, comprising of inflammatory disorders as well as certain meditational side effects. Pyogenic granuloma expresses as red, small erythematous papules on pedunculated or rather sessile base. The current study aims to evaluate the cases of epulis and to grade histological types of epulis. METHODOLOGY: This descriptive cross-sectional study was carried out at oral surgery OPD ISRA Dental College for a six-month duration. The diagnosis of epulis was made on the basis of clinical and histological examination. The research data was recorded on pre-designed proforma, and data were analyzed using SPSS version 22.0 (IBM, Corporation). RESULTS: Out of 150 study subjects, 90 (60%) patients were female, while 60 (40%) were male. Majority of the cases in our study were found with a maxillary site (n=93, 62.0%). Most had a size of 2cm-3cm (n=132, 76%). Coral Pink color was the most common in (n=90, 60%) patients, followed by red color (n=45, 30%) and pale color was found in (n=15,10%) of the cases. The histological findings proved pyogenic granuloma was most common in (n=75, 50%) of the cases followed by fibrous epulis (n=63, 42%), peripheral giant cell granuloma (n=6, 4%) and Peripheral ossifying fibroma (n=6, 4%). CONCLUSION: Pyogenic granulomas are the most prevalent reactive lesion. The lesions were more common in females in maxilla portion, and they were mostly found in the second to third decade of life.

“…These are considered responsible for about 50% of cases [6]. Data from a survey involving 90 patients, 21 smokers, and 27 alcoholics found precursor lesions of oral cancer such as actinic cheilitis and leukoplakia in ve and three patients, respectively [17]. They considered smoking and alcohol consumption to be the factors most associated with the appearance of cancer in the tongue and lip, both for active users and for those who stopped the habit [15].…”

Background: This study analyzed the most prevalent diagnoses of oral lesions submitted to biopsy using data from a pathology laboratory and associations between malignant and oral potentially malignant disorders with patient’s demographic variables and the anatomical location. Methods: This is a cross-sectional study. All 1,298 histopathological reports of oral lesions recorded in the database of the Institute of Pathology were reviewed. Demographic variables, anatomical location of the lesion, histopathological diagnosis of the lesions and their biological behavior were analyzed using a logistic regression. Results: Regarding the biological behavior of the identified lesions, benign lesions were predominant (70%), followed by lesions of undetermined behavior (14.3%), malignant lesions (14.2%), absence of histological alteration in the sample (1.2%), and finally, oral potentially malignant disorders (0.5%). The anatomical locations of the most prevalent oral lesions potentially malignant disorders and malignant were in the following structures of the oral cavity: gums, roof of the mouth, floor of the mouth, inner lining of the cheeks (P=49.2%), and tongue (P=48.7%). In the final adjusted model, the probability of malignant and premalignant lesions was higher among males (PR= 4.21; 95% CI 2.08-6.22), the increase in age (PR = 1.06; 95% CI 1, 05-1.08), and in the tongue region (PR = 5.48; 95% CI 1.67; 17.92). Conclusion: This study suggests that the probability of identifying malignant and oral potentially malignant disorders is higher in males whit age advanced and specimens from the tongue.

To establish the prevalence of oral mucosal lesions and normal variations in a population of older adults. This observational study was conducted from 2015 to 2016 and involved 156 participants from Los Guido (San José, Costa Rica). The participants’ sociodemographic information, risk factors, comorbidity, and clinical examination were evaluated and analyzed descriptively and qualitatively. Findings in oral mucosa were found to preferentially affect women (n=111; 71%) and individuals between the ages of 60 and 69 years (n=65; 42%), having smoking as a risk factor (n=67; 43%), and suffering from arterial hypertension (n=101; 65%). Intraoral findings were mainly presented together with variations from normal and pathology (n=71; 46%), predominantly one variation from normal (n=67; 33%) and one pathology (n=51; 43%). The most prevalent normal variations were the saburral tongue, lingual varicose veins, and cryptic tonsils. Infectious diseases (n=33; 21%), potentially malignant disorders (n=30; 19%), and physical and chemical injuries (n=18; 12%) were the most prevalent groups. The four most predominant lesions were prosthetic stomatitis, actinic cheilitis, frictional keratosis, and atrophic glossitis. The differences in pathological groups were not statistically significant (p=0.392) when comparing the frequency ratio by sex. Variations of the normal anatomy are the predominant ones, the saburral tongue being the most prevalent individually; among the pathologies, the most remarkable group was the infectious diseases, and prosthetic stomatitis was the most frequent. The information about this subject in Costa Rica is limited. So it is important to conduct more studies that contribute to the oral health of the elderly population in this area.
