Vexing Oral Mucosal Lesions (2024 AMW)

The myriad lesions that present in the oral cavity can stymie even the most astute otolaryngologist. This evidenced-based lecture presentation will explore the differential diagnoses, work-up, and management of a spectrum of oral lesions from benign to pre-malignant. Oral mucosal lesions commonly encountered in practice may span from the most benign, such as recurrent canker sores, to more ominous malignancies often with very similar appearances. Furthermore, various systemic illnesses such as Sjogren s disease, lichen planus, Crohn s disease, lupus, and nutritional deficiencies may present with vexing oral cavity lesions. Epithelial leukoplakia, dysplasia, and other pre-malignant oral lesions present both diagnostic and management challenges. An update on latest evidence-based novel strategies to prevent progression of oral dysplasia to carcinogenesis will be presented.
