Oral submucous fibrosis and its dermatological relation.
[oral submucous fibrosis]
Oral
submucous
fibrosis
is
a
chronic
insidious
disease
and
is
well-recognized
as
a
premalignant
condition
.
It
is
a
collagen
related
disorder
associated
with
betel
quid
chewing
and
characterized
by
progressive
hyalinization
of
the
submucosa
.
The
oral
submucous
fibrosis
needs
to
be
differentiated
from
scleroderma
showing
oral
manifestations
,
as
these
diseases
have
different
pathogenesis
and
prognostic
aspects
.
The
patients
of
oral
submucous
fibrosis
can
approach
the
dermatologist
.
The
aim
of
this
article
is
to
present
concise
overview
of
the
disease
and
its
dermatological
relation
.
