“…Among of the disorders that can undergo a process of malignant transformation there is the AC, which in some situations can turn into SCC of the lower lip [9,21]. The rate for malignant transformation of these lesions ranges from 10 to 30 % [28] and solar radiation is the main etiological factor in its development and consequent progression to SCC [9,28].…”

A maioria dos pacientes encontrados com a lesão era de homens 1,2,4,5,9,19,22,25,26 , embora o número de mulheres também tenha sido expressivo, provavelmente devido à natureza de trabalho destas pacientes. Cavalcante et al 2 As características histopatológicas da QA são importantes para o diagnóstico, o prognóstico e o tratamento da lesão.…”

Tem grande importância clínica por se tratar de uma lesão com reconhecido potencial de transformação maligna 4,7,8 , podendo chegar a 17% dos casos, ocasionando carcinoma, que se desenvolve lentamente, produzindo metástases tardiamente 9 .…”
