Micronucleus Frequency Test in Epithelial Cells Desquamated From the Oral Mucosa of Patients With Fanconi Anemia

Journal of Oral Pathology &Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Fanconi anemia (FA) is a rare genetic disorder predisposing patients to oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) corrects bone marrow failure but may increase the risk of malignancies. Exfoliative cytology and the micronucleus (MN) test provide noninvasive assessment of genomic instability.
