Chronic inflammatory mucosal disease with several clinical patterns and a debated malignant risk profile.

Почему это клинически важно

DDJ mainly uses OLP in oral mucosal differential diagnosis, biopsy decisions, and risk communication.

Как DDJ пишет этот термин

On first use: oral lichen planus (OLP). After that, use OLP only.

Чего избегать

  • Do not label every white mucosal lesion as OLP too quickly.
  • Do not imply that OLP automatically behaves like an OPMD with a fixed transformation risk.
