[Studies on the quality of leukoplakias of the oral mucosa and lips]
Abstract
Clinical and histological studies of 671 leukoplakias and 591 carcinomas of the oral mucosa and lips confirm that only inhomogenous leukoplakias may be qualified as precancerous lesions. Compulsory registration of inhomogenous leukoplakias as preneoplastic conditions is recommended.
