چکیده مقاله:
Background: Oral cavity, as the main source of complications such as infection, is unfortunately ignored in cancer patients. In this study, the frequency, type, and location of oral mucosal lesions were determined among patients admitted in the hematology and oncology department. Methods: In this cross-sectional study, ۸۸ admitted patients were examined between November ۲۰, ۲۰۱۷ to August ۲۱, ۲۰۱۸. Demographic data, history of smoking, and denture use were documented. Oral examinations were further conducted to evaluate oral soft tissue lesions according to the checklist. Results: ۸۸ hospitalized patients were screened, out of whom ۵۷(۶۴.۷%) had at least one lesion. A total of ۷۹ oral mucosal lesions were identified and ulcerative lesions, found in ۵۱ (۵۷.۹%) patients, were among the most frequently encountered problems. Pigmented lesions were more prevalent in smokers (P<۰.۰۰۱). Red and white lesions were significantly more than other lesions among complete denture wearing patients. Conclusion: In light of the high prevalence of oral complications in our patients, this study indicates the need for consultation with oral medicine specialist for a timely diagnosis and better management during the treatment process.
