BUCCAL CELL MICRONUCLEI AMONG PATIENTS WITH ORAL LEUKOPLAKIA.

OBJECTIVE: The aim: The purpose of research was to evaluate the efficiency of micronucleus test in buccal cells for the diagnosis of oral leukoplakia. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Materials and methods: We have conducted a comprehensive clinical and laboratory examination of 155 patients with oral leukoplakia. It was conducted histological examination leukoplakia mucosal sites, to assess the buccal epithelium cell micronucleus test was carried out. RESULTS: Results: Histological evaluation of the material was made according to the classification of leukoplakia WHO (2005). They are established 10 (14%) sites unmodified mucosa, 10 (14%) of the samples hyperkeratosis without atypia, 14 (19%) biopsies hyperkeratosis SIN1, 15 (21%) of hyperkeratosis SIN2, 10 (14%) -- SIN3 and 13 (18 %) of the cases of squamous cell carcinoma. Micronuclei, whose appearance is caused by violation of differentiation of epithelial cells, were found in patients with leukoplakia, the detection of micronuclei almost equally high as in patients with leukoplakia SIN2, and with SIN3 (a difference of 1.3 times (p <0,05, rxy = + 0.271)), and consequently the probability of occurrence of tumoral diseases of the oral mucosa or malignancy existing large. CONCLUSION: Conclusions: Thus, on the background of the general increase in proliferative activity of epithelial cells with increasing SIN, for each treatment group revealed the appearance of micronuclei in buccal cells. And the frequency of micronuclei and the fourth type of increases with hyperplasia, indicating an increase in the likelihood of malignancy and cancer of the oral mucosa in patients with leukoplakia SIN3.

EPIDEMIOLOGICAL SITUATION OF PRE-CANCER DISEASES OF THE ORAL MUCOUS IN UKRAINE.

OBJECTIVE: The aim: To conduct a prospective clinical study to assess the prevalence, structure, risk factors and features of clinical manifestations of precancerous diseases of oral mucosa and red lip in Kyiv residents and to analyze opportunities to improve the quality of their primary diagnosis. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Materials and methods: The examination of 423 patients with precancerous diseases of oral mucosa and red lip included clarification of the main complaints and anamnesis of the disease, objective assessment of the state of oral mucosa and red border of the lips according to visual, stomatoscopic, luminescent analysis, cyto-, histological studies. RESULTS: Results: Attention is drawn to the prevalence among precancerous diseases of patients with leukoplakia - 41.37% and lichen planus - 44.21%. The levels of detection of precancerous diseases of the oral mucosa due to the current and preliminary history for individual nosological forms are almost identical, which indicates the reliability of the above indicators. CONCLUSION: Conclusions: Promotion between the people about timely dental treatment for precancerous diseases of the oral mocosa and the use of radical technologies in their treatment will not only increase the effectiveness of treatment, but significantly limit the malignancy of these diseases.
