Salivary bacterial shifts in oral leukoplakia resemble the dysbiotic oral cancer bacteriome

Journal of Oral Microbiology, 2021
Objective: While some oral carcinomas appear to arise de novo, others develop within long-standing conditions of the oral cavity that have malignant potential, now known as oral potentially malignant disorders (OPMDs). The oral bacteriome associated with

Malignant Transformation of Oral Epithelial Dysplasia in Southern Finland

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Oral epithelial dysplasia (OED) often precedes oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). The aim was to elucidate the risk and time of malignant transformation (MT) of OED. Methods Patients diagnosed with OED between 2001 and 2011 in Helsinki and Uusimaa, Finland were included.
