This case study reports chronic angular cheilitis caused by Candida albicans, which progressed to epitheliomatous carcinoma. It discusses the potential role of Candida albicans in cancer development.

Area of Science:

  • Oral pathology
  • Mycology
  • Dermatology

Background:

  • Chronic angular cheilitis is an inflammatory condition affecting the corners of the mouth.
  • Candida albicans is a common fungal species, often implicated in oral infections.

Observation:

  • A persistent case of chronic angular cheilitis was observed.
  • Candida albicans was consistently isolated from the affected site.

Findings:

  • The chronic cheilitis progressed to develop epitheliomatous carcinoma.
  • This suggests a potential link between Candida albicans infection and oral cancer development.

Implications:

  • The findings highlight the need to consider fungal infections in the progression of chronic oral lesions.

  • Further research into the etiopathogenic role of Candida albicans in carcinogenesis is warranted.
