Background: The oral mucosa serves as a protective barrier against trauma, pathogens and carcinogenic agents. It can be affected by a wide variety of lesions and conditions, some of which are harmless while others may have serious complications. The appearance of benign oral soft tissue masses can occasionally resemble malignant tumors. Methods: Present study is an observational and cross sectional study under taken in the Department of ENT in Shri Vasant Rao Naik Government Medical College, Yavatmal. All cases of benign oral lesions were included in the study and following cases were excluded: malignant oral lesions, immunocompromised state and benign Oral lesions due to systemic diseases. Results: Present study included 235 lesions of oral cavity which were clinically or histo-pathologically found to be benign in nature. Benign oral lesions were more commonly found in males with (70.2%) than females (29.8%), and M:F ratio was 2.3:1. most common benign oral lesions were found to be Oral Sub Mucus Fibrosis (26.8%) followed by Apthous ulcers (20.4%), Leukoplakia (18.3%) and Mucocele (17.1%). Least common benign oral lesions were found to be Minor Salivary Gland Tumor (MSGT) (1.7%) followed by Squamous Papilloma (2.1%), Ranula (2.1%) and Hemangioma (2.1). There was a male predominance in oral sub mucus fibrosis with M:F ratio of 9.5:1 followed by Leukoplakia with M:F ratio of 4.4:1. OSMF was found most commonly in 21-30 years age group with (57.1%). Followed by 11-20 years with (20.6%). No cases were found in ≤10 years, 51-60 and >60 years age group. Conclusions: Most of the benign oral lesions have a predilection to transform into malignant lesions therefore imperative to diagnose the pre malignant lesions of oral cavity in an early stage where appropriate treatment can be given.

Depression symptoms and recurrent aphthous stomatitis—Evidence from a population‐based study in Indonesia

et al. 2020

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Objectives This study aims to report the prevalence and distribution of recurrent aphthous stomatitis (RAS) among Indonesian adults and to test the relationship between symptom of depression and RAS. Methods Data from the 2007 Indonesia Family Life Survey (IFLS 2007) were analysed to assess the association between symptom of depression and RAS. The prevalence of RAS in the previous month was self‐reported. Symptom of depression was measured using the 10‐item Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression (CES‐D) scale. The distribution of RAS according to age, sex and level of stress was also presented in the bivariate analysis. Multivariable logistic regression models were fitted to test associations between symptom of depression and RAS, controlling for age, sex and the stress level. Results The previous month prevalence of RAS in Indonesian population was 12%. The adjusted odds ratios (ORs) from the logistic regression models indicate that, for each unit increase in the CES‐D depression score (range: 0–30), there was a 9% increase in the odds of having RAS (OR: 1.09, 95%CI: 1.08–1.10). Being older and being male was related with lower prevalence of RAS. Conclusions A higher score of depression was related to a higher prevalence of RAS. This association was persistent even after controlling for age, sex and the level of stress.

“…It is likely that such studies give a prevalence much greater than those adhering to the RAS definition. Reported estimates vary between 1.5 and 28 % in different parts of the world, suggesting that there may be genetic differences to account for these geographical variances [2][3][4]. The prevalence in children may be greater than adults [5,6] Aetiology An impressive array of factors has been implicated in the aetiology of RAS, although it is likely that many of them influence the nature of the disease rather than cause it.…”

Recurrent aphthous stomatitis is one of the most common oral mucosal diseases seen by dental professionals, and yet its aetiology remains unclear, and its management based on less than robust evidence. The literature remains confused because of the lack of clarity in diagnosis and the lack of a standardised ulcer severity scoring system and agreed outcome measures. However, recent literature is encouraging in meeting these aims. There is agreement that recurrent aphthous stomatitis (RAS) is a localized mucosal disease not secondary to systemic disease and therefore distinguishable from over 40 other types of oral ulcers. Disease severity scores have been introduced and outcome measures have become more standardised. RAS appears to be an autoimmune disease directed at epitopes of heat shock proteins whilst most recent work on aetiology has focused on cytokines and genetics. Pro-inflammatory cytokines including TNF-a and IL-6 and IL-17 are raised in RAS and TNF inhibitors can inhibit episodes of ulceration. Many local antiinflammatory agents will help ulcers heal, and local steroids remain the treatment of choice. Some systemic drugs have evidence-based data indicating efficacy at preventing new ulcers including colchicine, prednisolone, thalidomide, pentoxyfilline and dapsone. The field would benefit from further trials combining local and systemic therapy using defined outcome measures.
