Premalignant and Malignant Mucosal lesions: Clinical and Pathological Findings Part II. Premalignant and malignant mucosal lesions

Part 2 of this 2-part continuing medical education series discusses the clinical and histopathologic features of common premalignant and malignant lesions of the oral cavity. It is imperative for dermatologists to be able to recognize suspicious lesions, determine biopsy need, counsel, and refer patients presenting with premalignant or malignant conditions appropriately. Given the higher rates of mortality and morbidity of oral mucosal malignancies due to late diagnosis, appropriate treatment with multidisciplinary care in a timely manner is essential to these neoplasms.
