Introducción: El cáncer bucal continúa siendo una de las neoplasias malignas en ascenso, de acuerdo con su incidencia y el importante número de muertes cada año. En este sentido, se han desarrollado programas de salud para la población que garantizan la pesquisa, la prevención y la atención de las enfermedades. Objetivo: Caracterizar a los pacientes con cáncer bucal en el Hospital Provincial Docente Oncológico María Curie de la provincia Camagüey durante el período 2018-2022. Métodos: Se realizó un estudio descriptivo transversal en el Hospital Provincial Docente Oncológico María Curie de la provincia Camagüey en un universo de 218 pacientes, que acudieron al Servicio de Cirugía de Cabeza y Cuello del año 2018 al 2022 y tuvieron como diagnóstico cáncer bucal. La muestra se delimitó a 113 pacientes que cumplieron con los criterios de inclusión y exclusión. Resultados: El cáncer bucal predominó en el sexo masculino con 89 (78,76 por ciento) en los años 2019 y 2021. Hubo mayor frecuencia en pacientes de piel blanca con 97 (85,84 por ciento) y el año 2021 mostró mayor número de estos enfermos. La lengua fue la más afectada con 43 (30,05 por ciento) pacientes, seguida por el suelo de boca en 18 (15,92 por ciento) y las encías en 17 (15,04 por ciento) pacientes. Según el estadio existió un predominio del IV en 61 (53,98 por ciento) enfermos, seguido por el III con un 18,58 por ciento de pacientes diagnosticados. Conclusiones: Prevaleció del sexo masculino en el grupo de 60 a 79 años y los pacientes de piel blanca fueron los más afectados. La localización de las lesiones se manifestó con mayor incidencia en la lengua y los estadios IV y III de la enfermedad son los más representativos en el momento del diagnóstico(AU)
Introduction: Oral cancer continues to be one of the malignant neoplasms on the rise, according to its incidence and the significant number of deaths each year. In this sense, health programs have been developed for the population that guarantee screening, prevention and care of the diseases. Objective: To characterize patients with oral cancer at the María Curie Oncological Teaching Provincial Hospital in Camagüey province during the period 2018-2022. Methods: A cross-sectional descriptive study was carried out in the María Curie Oncological Teaching Provincial Hospital of Camagüey province in a universe of 218 patients, who attended the Head and Neck Surgery Service from 2018 to 2022 and had oral cancer as diagnosis. The sample was limited to 113 patients who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Results: Oral cancer predominated in the male sex with 89 (78.76 percent) in the years 2019 and 2021. There was a higher incidence in patients with white skin with 97 (85.84 percent) and the year 2021 showed a higher number of these patients. The tongue was the most affected with 43 (30.05 percent) patients, followed by the floor of the mouth in 18 (15.92 percent) and the gums in 17 (15.04 percent) patients. According to stage there was a predominance of stage IV in 61 (53.98 percent) patients, followed by stage III with 18.58 percent of patients diagnosed. Conclusions: Male sex prevailed in the 60 to 79 years age group and white skin patients were the most affected. The location of the lesions manifested with greater incidence on the tongue and stages IV and III of the disease are the most representative at the time of diagnosis(AU)

La cavidad oral está continuamente expuesta a carcinógenos inhalados e ingeridos (tabaco y alcohol principalmente), y por lo tanto es el sitio más común para el origen de neoplasias en la región de la cabeza y el cuello.Para esta investigación, se realizó un estudio observacional descriptivo, de corte transversal, retrospectivo, de muestreo no probabilístico de casos consecutivos. Se incluyó a pacientes mayores de edad, con diagnóstico clínico y anatomopatológico de cáncer de cavidad oral.Así, se incluyó una serie de 17 casos de carcinoma escamocelular oral, 13 hombres (76 %) y 4 mujeres (24 %), donde la edad de los individuos osciló entre 32 y 73 años.El 65 % de los pacientes era fumador y el 71% refirió consumo de bebidas alcohólicas.La lengua fue la localización tumoral más frecuente, con el 71% de las personas que se encontraba en estadio IV, y con moderado grado de diferenciación histológica. Como conclusión, se determinó que la mayor parte de los pacientes de este estudio correspondían al sexo masculino de 50 a 70 años. Un alto porcentaje de los pacientes refería el hábito tabáquico, y mayor aún el consumo de alcohol. El subsitio más frecuentemente afectado es la lengua, en estadios avanzados y moderado grado de diferenciación.
INTRODUCTION: The oral cavity is continuously exposed to inhaled and ingested carcinogens (mainly tobacco and alcohol), and therefore it is the most common site for the origin of neoplasms in the head and neck region. METHODS: A descriptive, retrospective, observational study of non-probabilistic sampling of consecutive cases was carried out. Adult patients with a clinical and pathological diagnosis of oral cavity cancer were included. RESULTS: A series of 17 cases of oral squamous cell carcinoma was included, 13 men (76%) and 4 women (24%). The age of the individuals ranged between 32 and 73 years.65% of the patients were smokers, and 71% reported consumption of alcoholic beverages.The tongue was the most frequent tumor location, 71% were in stage IV, and with a moderate degree of histological differentiation. CONCLUSION: Most of the patients in this study were males between 50 and 70 years of age. A high percentage of patients reported smoking, and an even higher percentage of alcohol consumption. The most frequently affected subsite is the tongue, in advanced stages and a moderate degree of differentiation.

Objetivo: Los pacientes con enfermedad por el virus de la inmunodeficiencia humana suelen presentar lesiones orales, hasta en un 50% de los casos con diagnóstico de sida. La displasia fibrosa es una lesión intra-ósea caracterizada por una alteración del crecimiento y diferenciación de los osteoblastos debida a una mutación genética. Clínicamente se caracteriza por presentar una tumoración de lento crecimiento con dolor, deformidad ósea y, en ocasiones, fracturas ante traumas mínimos. Caso clínico: Se presenta una paciente con sida y tuberculosis diseminada que desarrolló una lesión ósea tumoral , con compromiso de paladar y encía superior derecha, cuyo diagnóstico histopatológico fue de displasia fibrosa de paladar óseo y maxilar superior. Conclusión: La displasia fibrosa debe incluirse en el diagnóstico diferencial de las lesiones tumorales orales de los pacientes con enfermedad VIH/sida.
Aim: Patients with human immunodeficiency virus infection usually have oral lesions, including up to 50% of patients diagnosed with AIDS. Fibrous dysplasia is an intra-bone lesion, characterized by an alteration of the growth and differentiation of osteoblastes produced by a genetic mutation. Clinically it is characterized by presenting a tumor of slow growth with pain, bone deformity and sometimes fractures to minimal trauma. Clinical case: Here we describe a patient with AIDS and disseminated tuberculosis who developed a large tumor lesion that involve the hard palate and the maxilla. Final histopathological diagnosis was of fibrous dysplasia involving the hard palate and the upper maxilla. Conclusion: fibrous dysplasia should be included in the differential diagnosis of intraoral tumor lesions in HIV/AIDS patients.

ABSTRACT Objectives: to identify the evidence available in the literature on the knowledge of dentists regarding risk factors and early diagnosis of oral and oropharyngeal cancer. Methods: it is an integrative review of the literature. Boolean descriptors and operators were searched in the PubMed and LILACS databases, using gray literature, in English, Spanish and Portuguese. Results: of the 79 PubMed and 152 LILACS articles, 24 were selected. Of these, eight showed good knowledge of dentists, while most showed low or little knowledge of risk factors and early diagnosis in dentists. All studies, however, highlight the need for continuing education to improve and maintain knowledge about risk factors and early diagnosis. Conclusions: most dental surgeons have insufficient knowledge of oral/oropharyngeal cancer. Continued education is suggested, aiming at improving knowledge and early diagnosis.

RESUMEN: Estudiar los efectos del consumo de tabaco (producto adictivo) en la salud de los pacientes sigue siendo una prioridad para la sociedad. Tras la lectura de "La Historia Medicinal de las cosas que se traen de nuestras Indias Occidentales" de Nicolás Monardes se realizó una lista de todos los beneficios que se le atribuían al tabaco. Uno de los pocos que no han sido refutados es el del consumo de tabaco para el dolor de muelas. Por ello el objetivo del estudio es relacionar el consumo de tabaco con la salud bucodental (caries) para replicar la afirmación de Monardes. Estudio piloto con pacientes que acuden al dentista en el área de La Rioja Alta (España). Se pidió permiso a los individuos que acudían para tratar sus datos personales en el estudio. Se utilizó estadística descriptiva. Ochenta y tres pacientes cedieron sus datos para la realización del estudio, siendo la mayoría mujeres (59.13%). La mayoría no son consumidores de tabaco, los consumidores son en su totalidad fumadores diarios. El número medio de caries de la población es de 2.74, siendo el de los fumadores 3.90 y el de los no fumadores 2.10. El número tan bajo de la muestra no permite realizar un estudio de significatividad. Pero, un primer resultado evidencia que los fumadores tienen una peor salud bucodental, lo que los lleva a tener más caries. Esta diferencia no es tan acuciada si se realiza el estudio entre otras variables (sexo, localidad o edad).
ABSTRACT: Studying the effects of tobacco use (addictive product) on the health of patients continues to be a priority for society. After reading " La Historia Medicinal de las cosas que se traen de nuestras Indias Occidentales " by Nicolás Monardes, a list of all the benefits attributed to tobacco was made. One of the few that has not been refuted is the use of tobacco for toothache. Therefore, the objective of the study is to relate the consumption of snuff with oral health (caries) to replicate the claim of Monardes. A pilot study with patients who visit the dentist in La Rioja Alta (Spain) was carried out. Permission was sought from the individuals who came to discuss their personal data in the study. Descriptive statistics was used. Eighty-three patients gave their data for the study, with the majority being women (59.13%). The majority are not tobacco consumers; tobacco users are in their entirety daily smokers. The average number of caries of the population is 2.74, being that of smokers 3.90 and that of non-smokers 2.10. The low number of the sample does not allow a study of significance. However, initial results show that smokers have worse oral health, which leads them to have more cavities. This difference is not critical if the study includes other variables (sex, location or age).

Renal transplant patients are treated with immunosuppressive drugs that decrease the effectiveness of the immune system, making them more prone to developing cancer. Skin and lip carcinomas are common malignancies encountered after transplantation, whereas oral carcinomas are rare. We report the case of a 51-year-old female Caucasian patient, with no history of smoking, who presented white lesions on the tongue and an ulcerated lesion on the lower lip beginning 4 months prior. Diagnosis of squamous cell carcinoma for both lesions was made following incisional biopsies. Interestingly, the patient reported a renal transplantation 23 years prior, and was maintained on a combination of cyclosporine, mycophenolate sodium and prednisone. The patient also presented a history of several basal and squamous cell carcinomas on sun-exposed areas of the skin. Both lesions were surgically excised. No sign of recurrence or new lesions in the oral cavity have been observed; however, new skin lesions are frequently diagnosed. This case report highlights that oral cancers may occur in transplant patients in the absence of classical risk factors. Thus, clinicians must be aware of the importance of thorough oral examination in transplant patients in routine follow-up.

Neurofibrosarcoma is a rare malignant neoplasm of the head and neck region and accounts for 8% to 16% of all cases. Its origin is varied and may stem from cells of the peripheral nerves, develop de novo, or result from malignant transformation of preexisting neurofibromas. Because the features of neurofibrosarcomas are heterogeneous, the data retrieved during clinical examinations are of great aid for diagnosis. In this case, owing to clinical features and the fact that the patient had neurofibromatosis type 1, the hypothesis of neurofibrosarcoma was promptly established. The final diagnosis was confirmed by associating clinical, imaging, and pathological data. After the treatment, the patient has been followed up for 10 years, with no evidence of recurrence.

Resumen Introducción La rehabilitación oral con implantes es en la actualidad la mejor opción para el tratamiento de pacientes parcial o totalmente edéntulos. Sin embargo, no es un procedimiento exento de complicaciones. La aparición de carcinoma epidermoide en la encía circundante de los implantes, aunque infrecuente puede ser una de ellas y aunque no hay muchos casos descritos en la literatura, sería conveniente establecer qué relación, si es que existiera, pueden tener los implantes en el desarrollo de esta enfermedad. Caso clínico Presentamos el caso de una mujer de 85 años de edad con antecedentes personales de liquen plano oral, exfumadora y portadora de implantes osteointegrados colocados en las áreas correspondientes a 34, 45 y 46, que desarrolló un carcinoma epidermoide en la encía periimplantaria.
Introduction Currently, dental implants is considered as the best choice for edentulism partial or complete treatment. However, this treatment has some associated medical complications such as surrounding gum squamous cell carcinoma. Even though there are not that many cases described in medical literature, it could be appropriated to determine whether there is any relation between this neoplasic disease and the dental implants. Clinical case Presenting a 85-year-old women with PMH of lichen planus, ex-smoker and osseointegrated dental implant in areas 34, 45 and 46, with surrounding implant gum area Squamous cell carcinoma.

RESUMEN: El grupo de neoplasias malignas de tejido blando de la región de cabeza y cuello en pacientes pediátricos está representado por carcinomas, sarcomas, melanomas y tumores de diferenciación incierta. La neoplasia más prevalente en la población pediátrica es el Rabdomiosarcoma, seguido por el carcinoma de células escamosas. Los rangos de presentación son muy amplios, siendo los grupos entre 2-6 años y 15-19 años los que presentan mayor incidencia. Se ha planteado que la etiología de estas neoplasias es incierta. El tratamiento de estas neoplasias es comúnmente de enfoque multimodal, combinando un procedimiento quirúrgico con quimioterapia y radioterapia. El pronóstico y sobrevida del paciente dependerán principalmente del momento en que se realice el diagnóstico de la lesión. Un diagnóstico y tratamiento temprano favorecen las posibilidades de sobrevida y el pronóstico del paciente. Este estudio corresponde a la 3ra parte de "Cáncer bucomaxilofacial en niños". Se hará referencia a los distintos tumores malignos del tejido blando en la población pediátrica en el territorio de cabeza y cuello, abarcando sus generalidades, etiología, epidemiología, tratamiento y pronóstico.
ABSTRACT: Head and neck malignant tumors in pediatric patients comprise carcinoma, sarcoma, melanoma and tumours of uncertain differentiation. Within the pediatric population, the most prevalent neoplasm is rhabdomyosarcoma, followed by squamous cell carcinoma. There is a wide range in the presentation, and it varies significantly with age groups of 2-6 and 15-19 year-olds who present the higher incidence rates. For this reason, it has been suggested that the etiology of head and neck neoplasms remains unclear. Treating these pathologies usually involves a multimodal approach that combines surgery, radiation and chemotherapy. Prognosis and survival rates depend mainly of the stage at the time of diagnosis. Early diagnosis and treatment can improve prognosis and survival rates. In this 3rd part of "Maxillofacial Cancer in Pediatric Patients", we studied a variety of malignant tumors in head and neck soft tissue from a paediatric sample. Specifically, we aim to analyze their etiology, epidemiology, treatment and prognosis.

CONTEXTO: A angiogênese tem sido associada à progressão de neoplasias malignas e, embora haja estudos acerca de marcadores angiogênicos no carcinoma epidermoide oral (CEO), existem resultados conflitantes na literatura. OBJETIVOS: Avaliar a expressão imunoistoquímica do CD105 e do fator de von Willebrand (FvW) em CEO e sua relação com parâmetros clínicos do tumor. MÉTODOS: A imunoexpressão dos referidos biomarcadores foi analisada em 30 casos de CEO e correlacionada a parâmetros clínicos do tumor (idade e sexo dos pacientes, localização anatômica e estadiamento clínico Tumor, Nodo e Metástase, TNM). RESULTADOS: A imunomarcação com o anticorpo anti-FvW foi mais efetiva que a do CD105 no CEO. No que concerne à localização anatômica, o assoalho bucal e a região retromolar apresentaram diferenças estatisticamente significativas quanto aos índices angiogênicos (p = 0,004), determinados pela técnica de contagem microvascular (MVC). Não houve relação estatisticamente significativa entre o estadiamento clínico TNM e os índices angiogênicos, com os dois biomarcadores. CONCLUSÕES: Com base nos achados deste estudo, sugere-se um envolvimento da neoformação vascular na carcinogênese oral, embora não tenha sido evidenciada associação significativa com o estágio clínico da lesão.
BACKGROUND: Angiogenesis has been linked with progression of malignant neoplasms and although studies have been conducted investigating angiogenic markers in oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC), contradictory results are reported in the literature. OBJECTIVES: To evaluate immunohistochemical expression of CD105 and von Willebrand factor (vWF) in OSCC and their relationships with clinical parameters of the tumors. METHODS: Immunoexpression of these biomarkers was analyzed in 30 cases of OSCC and correlated with clinical parameters of the tumors (age and sex of patients, anatomic site and Tumor, Node and Metastasis clinical staging [TNM]). RESULTS: In OSCC specimens, immunostaining was more effective using the anti-vWF antibody than using the anti-CD105 antibody. Angiogenic indices, determined by microvascular count (MVC) technique, were different for the floor of the mouth and the retromolar region, with statistical significance (p = 0.004). There were no statistically significant relationships between results for the two biomarkers and TNM clinical staging or angiogenic indices. CONCLUSIONS: The findings of this study suggest that vascular remodeling is involved in oral carcinogenesis, although there was no evidence of a significant association with clinical stage of lesions.

El liquen plano oral (LPO) es una enfermedad mucocutánea inflamatoria más común en las mujeres. Su etiología aún no es bien definida y esta condición puede estar relacionada, por ejemplo, a la ansiedad, estrés, diabetes, las enfermedades autoinmunes, infecciones y predisposición genética. El LPO se manifiesta en dos formas principales: reticular y erosivo. El objetivo de esta investigación es, a través de un estudio retrospectivo, analizar el posible potencial maligno del LPO. Se analizaron los registros de los pacientes atendidos en dos proyectos de lesiones bucales de dos diferentes instituciones en el período de 1995 a 2014. Se recogieron datos como género, edad, presencia de enfermedad sistémica, presencia de lesiones en la piel, tabaquismo, duración de la lesión, localización, síntomas, tratamiento, proservación y transformación maligna. Los resultados mostraron que, de los 3488 analizados, 85 (2,4%) tuvieron un diagnóstico confirmado de LPO, que afecta fundamentalmente a pacientes de sexo femenino (85%) siendo el LP reticular más común. En relación a la transformación maligna del LPO, 1 paciente (0,85%) tenía carcinoma de células escamosas 4 años después del diagnóstico inicial de LPO. Además, 3 pacientes mostraron atipia celular moderada en el diagnóstico. Los resultados refuerzan el potencial de transformación maligna del LPO. Aunque esta asociación es especulativa, la posibilidad debe ser considerada por los profesionales, que deben presentar estos pacientes a largos periodos de preservación.
Oral lichen planus (OLP) is an inflammatory mucocutaneous disease, more common in females. Its etiology is not yet well defined; this condition may be related, for example, to anxiety, stress, diabetes, autoimmune diseases, infections and genetic predisposition. The OLP manifests itself in two main forms: reticular and erosive. This work aims to perform a retrospective study analyzing the possible malignant potential of OLP. Records of the patients were analyzed in two projects of oral lesions in two different institutions in the period from 1995 to 2014. Data as gender, age, presence of systemic disease, presence of skin lesions, smoking, duration of the injury, location, symptoms, treatment, follow-up time and malignant transformation were collected. The results showed that, of the 3488 analyzed, 85 (2.4%) had a confirmed diagnosis of OLP, which mainly affected female patients (85%) being the most common the reticular LP. Regarding the malignant transformation of OLP, one patient (0.85%) had squamous cell carcinoma 4 years after the initial diagnosis of OLP. In addition, 3 patients showed moderate cellular atypia. The results reinforce the potential of malignant transformation of OLP. Although this association is speculative, this possibility must be considered by the dental practitioners, who must submit these patients to long periods of monitoring.

AbstractOral lichen planus (OLP) represents a common mucocutaneous disease. Various authors have suggested that OLP has malignant potential; however, the mechanisms involved in malignant transformation have not yet been elucidated. A 79-year-old man presented a white lesion for five months in the buccal mucosa diagnosed as OLP. After two months using 0.05% clobetasol ointment for treatment, the lesion became ulcerated. A new biopsy of the same lesion was performed, and histological analysis showed an in situ oral carcinoma (ISOC). An immunohistochemistry panel was performed, and p16 expression was negative in OLP, however, it showed weak cytoplasmic staining in ISOC. There was strong nuclear BUB3 staining in both OLP and ISOC areas. p53 showed less intense nuclear staining in both regions. Ki67 was negative in OLP area, but showed nuclear staining in the ISOC. SOX4 was negative in both studied areas. BUB3 expression, first reported in this case, and the p16 expression may suggest some influence of these genes on pathogenesis or malignant potential of OLP.

Oral submucous fibrosis (OSMF) is a well-recognized, potentially malignant disorder of the oral cavity that can affect any part of the oral mucosa, characterized by mucosal rigidity of varying intensity caused by fibro elastic transformation of the juxta epithelial layer of connective tissue. OSMF occurs in Indians and other population of the Indian subcontinent with certain oral habits. Betel quid chewing is a popular oral habit with potential links to the occurrence of oral cancer. In patients with submucous fibrosis, the oral epithelium becomes atrophic and thereby becomes more vulnerable to carcinogens. Since the ingredients of betel quid, tobacco are crucial for tumor initiation, promotion and progression, exposure to these toxicants simultaneously has been shown to markedly potentiate the oral cancer incidence in OSMF patients. The rate of malignant transformation of OSMF has been estimated to be 2-10%. Most cases with malignant transformation in OSMF have occurred gradually over a long period of time. This paper presents a case of oral submucous fibrosis turning into malignancy in a 34-year-old male patient.

CONTEXT: In 1999, an increase in mouth cancer incidence among young men (<50 years) in urban Ahmedabad was reported to be occurring along with decreasing mouth cancer incidence in older age groups and increasing oral submucous fibrosis incidence associated with areca nut consumption among young men in Gujarat. The aim was to investigate whether the increase in the incidence mouth cancer that had started among young men in the 1990s was continuing. SETTINGS AND DESIGN: Ahmedabad urban population, comparison of reported mouth cancer cases in the population across four time period. METHODS: Age‑specific incidence rates of mouth cancer (International Classification of Diseases [ICD]‑9:143–5; ICD‑10:C03–06) in five year age groups among men aged ≥15 years for the city of Ahmedabad for years 1985, 1995, 2007 and 2010 were extracted from published reports. For comparison, lung cancer (ICD‑9:169; ICD‑10:C33–C34) rates were also abstracted. STATISTICAL ANALYSIS USED: A cohort approach was used for further analysis of mouth cancer incidence. Age adjusted incidence rates of mouth and lung cancer for men aged ≥15 years were calculated and compared. RESULTS: The age specific incidence rates of mouth cancer among men increased over the 25‑year period while lung cancer rates showed a net decrease. Using a cohort approach for mouth cancer, a rapid increase in younger age cohorts was found. CONCLUSIONS: Mouth cancer incidence increased markedly among men in urban Ahmedabad between 1985 and 2010, apparently due to increasing consumption of areca nut products, mawa and gutka. Gutka has now been banned all over India, but a more vigorous implementation is necessary.
