Study of Caspase 8 mutation in oral cancer and adjacent precancer tissues and implication in progression.

PLoS ONE, 2020
It is hypothesized that same driver gene mutations should be present in both oral leukoplakia and cancer tissues. So, we attempted to find out mutations at one of the driver genes, CASP8, in cancer and adjacent leukoplakia tissues.

Aggressive Mandibular Squamous Cell Carcinoma Mimicking Periodontal Disease in a Non‐Transplanted Patient With Fanconi Anemia

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Fanconi anemia (FA) is associated with markedly increased risk for early‐onset oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). Methods We report an aggressive mandibular squamous cell carcinoma in a 26‐year‐old non‐transplanted woman with FA initially interpreted as localized periodontal disease adjacent to a tongue leukoplakia.
