“…It has been reported that atrophie, erosive and ulcerative lesions of oral lichen planus and those showing erythroplakic components are potentially more dangerous (2,5,8,9,(18)(19)(20)(21). Although in the present study the lesions were not recorded by subtypes, a retrospective assessment from the photographs showed that all 3 oral cancers were preceded by an atrophie form of lichen planus (Figs.…”

J Oial Pathol 1986: 15: 71-77.Abstraet -The malignant potential of oral liehen planus was assessed on the basis of observations in 722 patients found among 27,599 individuals examined in various epidetniologic studies in Ketala, Ernakulam district, India. Seven hundred and two patients with oral lichen platnis were re-examined annually over a 10-year period with a mean obsetvation period of 5.1 years. Most of the lesions (93%) were ob.setved artiong tobaeeo usets. Carcinoma developed in 3 (0.4%) patients with or;tl lichen planus. Clinieally, all 3 had attophie eomponents in their lesions, and all were tobaeeo usets. The telative risk of a lichen planus developing oral cancer eotnpared to a tobacco user was estitnated as 3.3. However, this telative risk was not significatit. Histologieally, 74% of the 94 biopsies ftom oral liehen planus showed epithelial atrophy. Two of the 3 in whom eaneer developed also showed epithelial attophy. It is felt that epithelial atrophy probably renders the tnueosa tnoie vulnerable to the carcinogenie aetion of tobaeeo. Although this study could not confirm the precancerous natute of this disease with a high degree of certainty, the disease did not appear to be innocuous either.

There has been a continuous debate regarding the possible malignant potential of oral lichen planus (OLP). Based on the results from follow-up studies, OLP is regarded by several authors as a pre-malignant condition, and patients with OLP have been recommended to have their lesions monitored two to four times annually. This recommendation needs reconsideration, because a recall system of all patients with OLP requires substantial economic resources. In a reality where such resources are limited, a recall system must be weighed against other benefits and the fact that the malignant potential of OLP is most likely very low. The present review focuses on the diagnostic criteria for OLP, the pre-malignant potential of OLP, and the extent to which the available information can be used to reduce morbidity and mortality of oral cancer related to OLP.

“…Une étude déjà ancienne, à partir de deux cas cliniques, évoque la possibilité d'une relation entre une ulcération chronique et un carcinome épidermoïde buccal [12]. Pour une prothèse amovible, l'intrados des crochets doit épouser fidèle-ment la surface des dents supports [13], sans venir au contact des tissus mous.…”

Mots clés : carcinome / tabagisme / prothèse dentaire / irritation chronique Résumé -Les carcinomes épidermoïdes des voies aéro-digestives supérieures se rencontrent en général sur un terrain dominé par l'intoxication éthylo-tabagisme chronique. Ils sont caractérisés par une importante agressivité locorégionale. Ce travail a pour objectif de mettre en garde les praticiens contre les consé-quences fatales des appareils prothétiques mal adaptés. Nous rapportons un cas de carcinome épidermoïde de la langue mobile chez une femme de 47 ans. Deux facteurs ont été incriminés : le tabagisme chronique qui est un facteur de risque reconnu et un facteur déclenchant qui serait l'irritation chronique provoquée par le crochet mal adapté d'une prothèse dentaire amovible. Ainsi, la présence d'une agression chronique, aussi minime soit-elle, sur un terrain à risque, doit être supprimée afin d'éviter cette transformation maligne. L'importance de la fréquence des récidives locorégionales en moins d'un an postopératoire et l'issue fatale liée à ce type de cancer amènent les chirurgiens à effectuer des exérèses en bloc, au large de la tumeur, quelquefois très mutilantes, associées ou non à un évidement ganglionnaire. La radiothérapie postopératoire complémentaire, associée ou non à une chimiothérapie, permet d'améliorer la survie des patients.Key words: carcinoma / smoking / dental prosthesis / chronic irritation Abstract -Squamous cell carcinoma of the mobile tongue and teeth prosthesis irritation: report of a case. Usually, the head and neck squamous cell carcinomas occur on a chronic alcohol-smoking field. They are characterized by significant locoregional aggressiveness. This work aims to warn caregivers against the fatal consequences of inappropriate prosthetic. We report a case of mobile tongue squamous cell carcinoma in a 47 years old woman. Two factors were incriminated: chronic smoking that is a recognized risk factor and a trigger factor that would be chronic irritation caused by the hook unsuitable for removable prosthesis. Thus, a chronic irritation, however small it may be, associated with risk field must concern in order to avoid a fatal disease. The importance of locoregional recurrence rate within one year and the fatal outcome of these cancers lead surgeons to perform bloc resections, off the tumor limits, sometimes disfiguring, closed or not to cell and lymph nodes recess. Postoperative radiotherapy, with or without chemotherapy, can improve survival of patients.Les cancers de la cavité buccale font partie des cancers des voies aéro-digestives supérieures et leurs caractéristiques histologiques et épidémiologiques sont communes. Il s'agit en général de carcinomes épidermoïdes survenant sur un terrain éthylo-tabagique et/ou résultant de la transformation maligne de lésions précancéreuses [1]. La notion de soins dentaires et prothétiques a été relatée dans la littérature même si on n'a jamais observé de différences significatives [2].
