ABSTRACT
INTRODUCTION:
The palatal mucosa requires careful testing prior to prosthetic treatment. Pathological changes may occur during the period of use of a dental prosthetic, especially when worn constantly. Aim of the report We describe the case of a patient who experienced extensive changes in the mucosa of the hard palate over 12 years of dentures used. CASE PRESENTATION The 78-year-old female patient was referred to the Department of Otolaryngology of the Jagiellonian University Hospital in Krakow with a diagnosis of adenocarcinoma of the palate. In connection with the planned extensive surgery, there was indication for the use of a palatal plate with an obturator in order to close the expected gap in the palate structure. No recurrence of the tumor was seen in the period examined. Summation Despite the extensive tumor, two small defects in the palate remained after surgery. These were effectively sealed and the patient reached the five-year survival point.Palabras clave
