Abstract: Atualmente, muito tem se discutido sobre a natureza pré-maligna do líquen plano oral. Embora novas linhas de pesquisa tenham sido desenvolvidas nos últimos anos, estamos longe de alcançar um consenso. Se por um lado, estudos recentes afastam a possibilidade de transformação do líquen plano oral em carcinoma epidermóide, por outro, não são poucos os casos relatados na literatura que enfatizam esse potencial.
