Test Leukoplakia Overview Symptoms Treatment Prevention Alternate Names Hairy leukoplakia; Smoker's keratosis Definition Leukoplakia is a precancerous lesion that develops on the tongue or the inside of the cheek as a response to chronic irritation. Occasionally, leukoplakia patches develop on the female external genitalia. Causes and Risk Leukoplakia is primarily a disorder of the mucous membranes of the mouth, caused by irritation. Lesions usually develop on the tongue, but they may also appear on the insides of the cheek. Irritation may result from rough teeth or rough places on dentures, fillings, crowns and so on. It may also result from smoking or other tobacco use (smoker's keratosis). Pipe smoking involves a high risk for development of leukoplakia, as does holding chewing tobacco or snuff in the mouth for a prolonged period of time. Leukoplakia patches may develop on the female external genital area, but the cause is unknown.

86. Oral Manifestations Of AIDS Back to Classification. Oral hairy leukoplakia (OHL). The classically described intraoral lesion of AIDS is oral hairy leukoplakia (OHL). http://www.dent.ucla.edu/pic/members/oralaids/viral/ohl/ohl.html

Frequent Oral Diseases in HIV Positive and AIDS Patients Dr. Heddie O. Sedano, DDS At the end of this lecture, you will be asked if you would like to take this course for continuing education units. California Continuing Education Credits: 2 units Back to Classification Oral Hairy Leukoplakia (OHL) OHL tends to manifest in patients who's CD4+ cell count falls below 300 cells per cubic millimiter. There have been several studies which have demonstrated the importance of OHL as a determinant of the prognosis of AIDS. These studies have shown that patients with OHL have a shorter life span than those that do not present this lesion. This might implicate that the status of the immune system in those patients with OHL is at a lower level than those that do not have OHL. OHL is generally not treated unless it is requested by the patient because of aesthetics, masticatory or phonetic reasons. OHL resolve in patients which undergo treatment with AZT (zidovudine). This 24 year-old man presented these barely visible, vertical striations on both sides of his tongue. Note their almost parallel orientation. These lesions did not rub off. The clinical diagnosis of OHL was established. Additionally, the patient had a large tonsilar abscess and a weight loss of 15 pounds in the last 2 months. He attibuted the loss of weight to change in his diet. The patient denied belonging to any AIDS risk group but a Western blot and ELISA test, when performed, were positive and his CD4+ cell count was 280 cells per cubic millimeter. Then, the diagnosis of AIDS was established.

"Hairy" leukoplakia of the mouth is an unusual form of leukoplakia that is seen only in HIV -positive individuals. It consists of fuzzy (hairy) white patches on the tongue, and less frequently, elsewhere in the mouth. It may resemble thrush, a type of candida infection that in adults is also associated with HIV and AIDS. Hairy leukoplakia may be one of the first signs of infection with HIV. Prevention: Minimize or stop smoking or other tobacco use. Have rough teeth treated and dental appliances repaired promptly.

Stan McGuff, D.D.S.* The University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio Department of Pathology * Diplomates, American Board of Oral and Maxillofacial Pathology CLINICAL CORRELATION: HAIRY LEUKOPLAKIA - Dr. Anne Cale Jones Hairy leukoplakia is a unique form of hyperkeratosis caused by the Epstein-Barr virus (EBV). The majority of cases occur in individuals who are HIV seropositive. Examples have also been reported in individuals who have received solid organ transplants but are otherwise, HIV seronegative. Hairy leukoplakia presents as an asymptomatic white, corrugated lesion involving the lateral tongue. Occasional cases may involve the adjacent dorsal and ventral tongue. Although uncommon, examples of hairy leukoplakia have been reported involving other oral mucosa sites including the retromolar area and soft palate. Most cases of hairy leukoplakia are asymptomatic and are only identified following a routine oral examination. Histopathologic examination reveals hyperplastic stratified squamous epithelium covered by a thickened layer of parakeratin interspersed with occasional fungal organisms.

Oral Hairy Leukoplakia This article submitted by on 1/18/99. Email Address: Does anyone know what this looks like? the descriptions that i have read say that these patches are thick and hard and can be corrugated or hairy. Can they be faint and come and go? I have had spots along the edge of my tongue, but they are not hard and they do no stay. Otherwise they fit the description, even the ridge on the inside of my cheek. my doc says this is nothing.
