ABSTRACT
A descriptive and cross-sectional study was carried out in 116 patients with oral
leukoplakia, assisted in the Stomatology Department of the Specialties Polyclinic
belonging to "Saturnino Lora Torres" Teaching Clinical Surgical Provincial Hospital in
Santiago de Cuba, from June, 2007 to the same month of 2010, in order to evaluate
the results of the clinical and histopathological diagnosis of this disorder and their
relation to the smoking habit and subjective symptoms. The samples for biopsies were
deposited in a glass flask with 10 % formol, they were fixed in 5 % formaline, they
were processed through the classic technique of inclusion in paraffin and then they
were colored with hematoxiline-eosine, through which the presence of cellular changes
was confirmed. Male sex, the absence of these symptoms, the epithelial dysplasia and
the hyperparakeratosis prevailed in the case material, as the most common epithelial
changes, as well as the severe dysplasia in heavier smokers. On the bases of the
detected transformations, investigations allowing to specify the biological and
histological implications of this disease should be carried out.
