Area of Science:

  • Oral pathology
  • Dermatology
  • Oncology

Background:

  • Oral proliferative verrucous leukoplakia (OPVL) is a rare, progressive oral leukoplakia characterized by hyperkeratosis, multifocal disease, and exophytic features.
  • OPVL presents without racial predilection but shows a female predominance, linked to factors like HPV, genetic susceptibility, and chronic trauma.
  • Malignancy transformation rates for OPVL range from 0.13% to 17.5%, with a high propensity for recurrence.

Observation:

  • This report details two cases of oral proliferative verrucous leukoplakia affecting the tongue and palate.
  • Diagnosis was confirmed through comprehensive clinical and histopathological examinations.
  • Treatment involved Vitamin A and its supplements.

Findings:

  • Long-term follow-up of the two cases demonstrated no recurrence of the condition.
  • Vitamin A treatment was associated with positive outcomes, suggesting its efficacy.

Implications:

  • Vitamin A may be a potent therapeutic option for oral proliferative verrucous leukoplakia.
  • Its antioxidant and epithelialization properties contribute to its effectiveness in managing OPVL.
  • Further research into Vitamin A's role in OPVL treatment is warranted.
