Abstract
J Clin Anat Pathol 2017 | Vol 3: 101 Abstract Gingival Squamous Cell Carcinoma (SCC) may present with varied clinical and histological appearances. Proliferative verrucous Leukoplakia (PVL) is a high risk non-homogenous leukoplakia. PVL has a high probability of recurrence and has shown a high rate of malignant transformation to either squamous cell carcinoma or verrucous carcinoma. This paper discusses two cases of gingival PVL with malignant transformation. Both patients were female, ages 62 and 70 who were seen at the oral pathology clinic in Kaiser. The initial biopsy results on both cases were suggestive of PVL. Close observation and repeated follow up visits showed recurrent lesions and subsequently early detection of SCC.
