Individuals with XP also have a greater frequency of oral cancer, particularly squamous cell carcinoma of the anterior third of the tongue. The current study reports four cases of XP that exhibited a characteristic crescent-shaped, atrophic, telangiectatic area on the distal border of the tongue and correlates this lesion with the development of tumors at this site during follow-up. The tongue lesion was photographed and biopsied in the four patients. During routine follow-up visits, new biopsies were performed if additional tongue lesions were observed. The studied lesions were similar in the four patients. During follow-up, squamous cell carcinoma developed in one patient and pyogenic granuloma developed in three patients and was relapsing in one. The lesion remained stable in one patient during the study. The atrophic and telangiectatic patches probably occur because of chronic sun damage to the exposed portion of the tongue, and this area has a high predisposition for the development of benign and malignant tumors.
- Adhesion Molecules in Primary Oral Mucosal Melanoma: Study of Claudins, Integrins and Immunoglobulins in a Series of 35 Cases(2013) BOLOGNA, Sheyla Batista; NICO, Marcello Menta S.; HSIEH, Ricardo; COUTINHO-CAMILLO, Claudia Malheiros; BUIM, Marcilei E.; FERNANDES, Juliana Dumet; SANGUEZA, Martin; SOARES, Fernando Augusto; LOURENCO, Silvia VanessaPrimary oral mucosal melanoma is a rare aggressive tumor. Recent studies have demonstrated a correlation between increased tumor invasion and the metastatic phenotype and altered adhesion molecule expression profiles. The present study analyzed the expression of integrins, claudins, and immunoglobulin-like adhesion molecules in oral mucosal melanomas and correlated results with clinical parameters. Immunohistochemical analyses of the expression patterns of these molecules were performed on thirty-five cases of primary oral mucosal melanomas organized in a tissue microarray. The results were correlated with clinical and histological features of the cohort. A number of integrin subunits were negative and this was related with vascular invasion. Positivity of integrin beta-3 and CD166 (activated leukocyte cell adhesion molecule) was statistically associated with extensive vascular invasion (P < 0.05). Lower expression of CD54 (intercellular cell adhesion molecule) was associated with cases with extensive necrosis. Most cases with metastatic disease were negative for CD66 (carcinoembryonic antigen-related cell adhesion molecule). Several subunits of claudins were negative and, although not statistically significant, this lack of expression was partially associated with histological factors of poor prognosis. Altered patterns of adhesion molecule expression, mainly integrins and immunoglobulin-like proteins, may participate in the pathogenesis and outcome of oral mucosal melanomas.
conferenceObject Sjogren's syndrome: Histopathological evaluation of thrombosis in specimens of minor salivary glands(2013) BOLOGNA, S.; LOURENO, S. V.; TESHIMA, T. H.; PASOTTO, S.; NICO, M. M. S.- Establishment and Characterization of an Oral Mucosal Melanoma Cell Line (MEMO) Derived From a Longstanding Primary Oral Melanoma(2013) LOURENCO, Silvia V.; BOLOGNA, Sheyla B.; HSIEH, Ricardo; SANGUEZA, Martin; FERNANDES, Juliana D.; NICO, Marcello M. S.Oral mucosal melanoma is rare. Its incidence peaks between 41 and 60 years of age; male/female ratio is 2:1. Preferred oral sites include hard palate and maxillary gingiva. Risk factors have not been clearly identified, but pigmented lesions may be present before the diagnosis of oral melanoma. We report an unusual case of oral mucosal melanoma of long-standing duration on hard palate and maxillary alveolar ridge in a male patient. Histopathologic features confirmed the diagnosis of invasive melanoma with a prominent in situ component. A cell lineage derived from the tumor was established and characterized, with phenotypic markers of melanocytes.
