“…22 Dhariwal et al demonstrated 2 cases of Indian OSF in children, specifically, a 10-year-old boy with a history of chewing gutkha and a 12-year-old girl with a history of chewing pan masala. 23 Shah et al reported an 11-year-old Bangladeshi girl with OSF who had a history of chewing areca nut and supari. 24 Chaturvedi et al found that patients with oral cancer caused by OSF were younger than non-OSF patients, 25 suggesting that children chewing areca nut could suffer from OSF.…”

Background Oral submucous fibrosis (OSF) has been reported frequently in India and other countries in South Asia. There are few reports on the clinicopathological features of OSF in China, where OSF is an epidemic. This study analyses the clinicopathological features of OSF in Hunan Province, China. Methods A total of 674 cases of OSF were collected from July 2013 to August 2018 in Xiangya Stomatological Hospital, Central South University, and gender, age, site, pathological stage, habits, symptoms and associated lesions were recorded. Results The male to female ratio was 32.7:1. The average age was 35.23 ± 10.08. The buccal mucosa was the most common site. A total of 99.85% of OSF cases chewed areca nut. Pale mucosa, restricted mouth opening, burning and fibrous bands were common clinical manifestations. Oral leukoplakia (OLK) was the most common associated lesion. The extended duration of chewing areca nut increased the risk of associated lesions ( P < 0.05). The risk of OSF associated with OLK decreased with increasing OSF stage ( P < 0.05). Conclusion The prevalence of OSF in males was higher than that in females, the buccal mucosa was most affected, and chewing areca nut is the most common habit of OSF patients.

[9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24] Reviewing the literature no case has been reported with an interincisal opening less than 10 mm, 24 thus making this case to be the first incident case of OSMF in a child with least interincisal opening of 06 mm.…”

Background: Oral Sub Mucous Fibrosis (OSMF) is a clinical entity, well known since the time of Sushruta as 'Vidari'. OSMF is a chronic subtle disease that is associated with significant functional morbidity and an increased risk for malignancy. Generally, OSMF is considered as an adult disease, but recently Indian suburb area has reported incidence of 0.2-1.2 percent in pediatric age group as well. The pathogenesis of the disease is not well established, but is believed to be multifactorial. Areca nut chewing is considered as the major etiology amongst all. Children indulge in habit of chewing areca nuts due to its easy availability of different forms of multicolored attractive areca nut pouches in markets. Other factors involved in the consumption of Areca nut are levels of awareness, household environment, peer pressure, low cost, etc. Case presentation: A 5-year-old boy reported with the complaint of restricted mouth opening since 3-4 months. He had habit of chewing betel nut, a minimum of 2-3 sachets daily since one and a half years. He also complained of intolerance to spicy food. The oral mucosa was pale, opaque, blanched with a reduced mouth opening of interincisal width being 06 mm.Palate was fibrotic with shrunken uvula. Conclusion: This Case of OSMF in a 5-year-old boy is reported to be the first incidence of OSMF in a child with least interincisal opening of 06 mm.

“…28 Homogeneous variety of leukoplakia is characterized by uniformly flat, thin, uniformly white in appearance and shows a shallow crack on the surface of the whitish patch. 28 Non-homogeneous variety is defined as a white and red lesion called as erythroleukoplakia which often irregularly flat (speckled) or nodular. Verrucous leukoplakia is other types of non-homogeneous leukoplakia.…”

Premalignant lesions of the oral cavity are also called as potentially malignant disorders. The common premalignant lesions of the oral cavity include leukoplakia, oral submucous fibrosis (OSMF) and oral erythroplakia. These lesions have a very high malignant transformation rate. The exact etiological factors for development of the premalignant lesions of the oral cavity are not fully understood till date. Use of tobacco, alcohol drinking, chewing betel quid containing areca nut and solar rays are important etiological factors for resulting the premalignant lesions of the oral cavity. Early diagnosis is an important step for preventing the malignant transformations of these lesions and can be also life-saving. There are several treatment options including conservative to surgical for eliminating the premalignant lesions of the oral cavity. The aim of this study was to discuss the details of epidemiology, etiopathology, clinical presentations, diagnosis and current treatment of the premalignant lesions of the oral cavity.
