2 Empowering Physicians, Nurses and Other Non Dental Healthcare Providers in the Early Detection of Oral and Oropharyngeal Cancer Faculty/Presenter Disclosure Susan Müller has nothing to disclose Susan Müller, DMD, MS Professor Emeritus Department of Otolaryngology Emory University School of Medicine Disclosure of Commercial Support Goals This program has not received financial support from a commercial entity. This program has not received in-kind support from a commercial entity. Distinguish benign conditions from potentially premalignant or malignant oral lesions Susan Muller, DMD, MS 1
3 Goals Discuss clinical presentation, differential diagnosis of precancerous and cancerous lesions Questions to Think About When Evaluating Oral Lesions Acute vs Chronic Multiple vs Single Location Duration Associated pain Induration Other mucosal lesions Cutaneous lesions Systemic diseases Medications Any known triggers Susan Muller, DMD, MS 2
4 What is oral leukoplakia? Sites of Oral Leukoplakia Leukoplakia is the most common oral precancer (potentially malignant oral lesion) 2.6% worldwide prevalence 70-95% of oral leukoplakias will not progress to malignancy Lesions of long duration have a greater risk of malignant transformation than those of short duration More than 2/3 or oral leukoplakia are found at 3 sites: lip vermilion, gingiva, and buccal mucosa Sites where leukoplakia are most likely to be associated with pre-cancer/cancer: tongue, lip vermilion and floor of mouth (account for 93% of all leukoplakia associated with dysplasia or cancer) Petersen PE Oral Cancer prevention and control-the approach of the World Health Organization. 45:454-60,2009; Oral Oncol. Müller S. Oral Precancer. In: Werning JW, eds. Oral Cancer. Diagnosis, Management, and Rehabilitation. New York: Thieme, 2007: Oral Leukoplakia What causes oral leukoplakia? cdc.gov Susan Muller, DMD, MS 3
5 Oral Leukoplakia What causes oral leukoplakia? Actinic Cheilitis: Premalignant change of the lower lip vermilion from long-term or excessive exposure to UV solar radiation. Strong male predilection 10:1 (M:F) Seldom occurs in patients <45 yrs Actinic Cheilitis The earliest clinical changes include atrophy of the lower lip with blotchy pale areas. There is blurring of the interface between the vermilion and the skin Actinic Cheilitis Susan Muller, DMD, MS 4
6 As the lesion progresses, rough, scaly areas develop. Chronic focal ulcers may develop and last for months. Actinic Cheilitis Lip Cancer Oral Submucous Fibrosis Chronic, irreversible disease associated with the use of betel nut, quid, nass, paan and other substances commonly used in India and other South-Central Asian countries Early signs include blanching of the mucosa Trismus About 7% malignant transformation rate Chung CH et al. Oral precancerous disorders associated with areca quid chewing, smoking, and alcohol drinking in southern Taiwan. J Oral Pathol Med Sep;34(8): Blanching of the Mucosa Susan Muller, DMD, MS 5
7 Trismus from Betel Nut Use Trismus Patient With Oral Cancer Advanced Oral Cancer in a Betel Nut User Smokeless Tobacco Keratosis Susan Muller, DMD, MS 6
8 Smokeless Tobacco Smokeless tobacco keratosis has a much smaller risk of developing cancer than oral leukoplakia that develops in tobacco smokers Smokeless tobacco keratosis is routinely reversible after habit cessation 27 M with a 10-year history of ST use In the last year uses 1½ cans of Skoal daily Rodu B, Jansson C. Smokeless tobacco and oral cancer: a review of the risks and determinants. Crit Rev Oral Biol Med Sep 1;15(5): What is not oral leukoplakia? 6 weeks after stopping ST use Cheek/tongue biting Candidiasis Lichen planus Leukoedema Nicotine stomatitis Aspirin burn Cinnamon reaction Amalgam reaction Susan Muller, DMD, MS 7
9 Tongue Biting Cheek Biting Linea alba associated with pressure, friction, or sucking trauma seen along the occlusal plane Cheek Biting Lip Biting Chronic cheek chewing show thickened, shredded areas with zones or erythema or superficial ulcerations. Susan Muller, DMD, MS 8
10 Aspirin Burn Oral Candidiasis Nicotine Stomatitis Oral Lichen Planus Less common Symptomatic Atrophic erythematous areas with central ulceration Bordered by fine, white radiating striae Susan Muller, DMD, MS 9
11 Lichen Planus Is Lichen Planus a premalignant lesion? Oral Cancer in Patient with Erosive Lichen Planus Controversial: Reported frequency of 0.4% to 5% over observation period of.5 to >20 years Most occur in sites of atrophic or erosive LP In some reported cases, LP diagnosis made only on clinical observation The clinical manifestations and treatment of oral lichen planus. Dermatologic Clinics, 21: January Erythroplakia Pyogenic Granuloma A red patch that cannot be clinically diagnosed as any other condition. Must exclude other red lesions: mucositis drug reaction candidiasis aphthae herpes non-specific ulcer hemangioma pyogenic granuloma Susan Muller, DMD, MS 10
12 Cinnamon Reaction Aphthous Ulcer Hemangioma Candidiasis Candidiasis Presenting as Median Rhomboid Glossitis Susan Muller, DMD, MS 11
13 Post-Treatment with Antifungal Erythroplakia Usually asymptomatic, and appears as a welldemarcated, erythematous macule or plaque with a soft velvety texture. Almost all (90%) of erythroplakia exhibit high grade dysplasia, carcinoma-in-situ, or invasive carcinoma. Erythroplakia Erythroplakia Carcinoma in situ Carcinoma Susan Muller, DMD, MS 12
14 Erythroleukoplakia Head & Neck Cancer Stats Premalignant lesion that has both a leukoplakic (white), and erythroplakic (red) component. 650,000 patients worldwide are diagnosed with head and neck cancer each year 350,000 die from this disease 90% are squamous cell carcinoma. The two main causative factors in about 80% of oral, oropharyngeal, and laryngeal carcinomas are smoking and alcohol use >20% are not related to smoking or drinking. Warnakulasuriya S.

22 Suspicious Lesions Final Thoughts At this time we cannot predict which benign leukoplakias will transform to cancer. Current research is underway to try and answer this dilemma. Current research is also being conducted to evaluate chemo-preventative agents in the treatment of leukoplakia. When in doubt about the malignant potential of an oral lesion biopsy!
