Oral presentation of 10 patients with Cowden syndrome.
[cowden syndrome]
Cowden
syndrome
(
CS
)
is
an
autosomal
dominant
genodermatosis
that
frequently
affects
several
tissues
with
hamartomatous
growth
.
The
oral
cavity
is
quite
commonly
involved
with
papillomatous
lesions
,
which
can
be
crucial
to
early
diagnosis
of
this
disease
.
In
this
series
,
10
patients
with
a
great
diversity
of
manifestations
associated
with
CS
are
presented
,
in
whom
oral
papillomatosis
was
a
constant
and
relevant
finding
to
establish
the
diagnosis
of
CS
.
The
role
of
the
dentist
in
recognizing
the
oral
lesions
,
the
other
diagnostic
criteria
,
the
risk
for
the
development
of
malignancies
,
and
the
importance
of
lifetime
follow-up
are
discussed
.
