The diagnosis should be differentiated with benign lymphoepithelioma, metastasis or infiltrated poorly differentiated squamous cell carcinoma and malignant lymphoma.
Neoplasms have rarely been reported in lesions of lupus erythematosus (LE) and have included basal cell carcinoma (BCC), squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), and atypical fibroxanthoma.
Squamous cell cancers arise from squamous cells that undergo genetic mutations that either activate proto-oncogenes or inactivate tumor suppressor genes.
Wearing sunscreen helps protect against the development of all three types of skin cancer: basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, and melanoma.
In chronic laryngitis the normal columnar cells undergo dysplasia, which is when they transform into squamous epithelium to adapt to the chronic irritation.
A second type of epithelium is non-keratinized stratified squamous epithelium, and it contains cells that don't produce much keratin, making this layer less tough.
Because that's because each sac contains a cluster of alveoli, these tiny cavities lined with super thin, wet membranes made of simple squamous epithelium tissue.
All right, as a quick recap, oral cancer refers to cancers that originate in the oral cavity, which is lined by keratinized or non-keratinized stratified squamous epithelia.
