Recognizing Leukoplakia in Gay Men

During this time I was seeing and managing patients with oral candidiasis. I was also seeing patients who had white patches in the mouth that were not responding to antifungal therapy. We didn't have a lot of "antifungals" actually in the late seventies and early eighties. That's the time when new antifungals like Mycelex and Ketochorazole were being tested and evaluated for use.
Hughes
Now, the white patches were synonymous with leukoplakia? That was the diagnosis?
D. Greenspan
A non-removable white patch in the mouth is called a leukoplakia. Leukoplakia simply means white patch, and the difference between a leukoplakia and pseudomembranous candidiasis is that pseudomembranous candidiasis is a removable white patch and leukoplakia is a non-removable white patch. Some of these leukoplakias may represent dysplasia, atypia, or early squamous cell carcinoma. And in 1980 and 1981, I saw people with white lesions on the tongue that were thought to be due to candida that in fact didn't respond to antifungal therapy, and therefore we biopsied them, because you need to biopsy white patches to find out what they are, to make sure that there is no dysplasia or carcinoma. The biopsies found slightly unusual appearances in the epithelium, that these were lesions that had no evidence of dysplasia or atypia, no evidence of candida, but nevertheless were a hyperkeratosis. We saw several cases

Deborah Greenspan II The Aids Epidemic Significance of Hairy Leukoplakia
Significance of Hairy Leukoplakia
D. Greenspan
We found that hairy leukoplakia was very significant; it was evidence of an immunosuppression; it was consistent with falling CD4 count; it was consistent with increasing anergy to sensitivity testing; it was significant because of the development of an AIDS diagnosis out of an opportunistic infection or Kaposi's sarcoma. And therefore understanding it and then teaching people to recognize it was a very important part of this disease. And then as I said, above all, providing care. Because apart from hairy leukoplakia, lots of other problems came. We had troublesome candidiasis, nasty aphous ulcers, a very aggressive form of periodontal disease. Hairy leukoplakia was often the first thing the patients recognized. We know now, looking back, that it's one of the early markers of failing immune competence, so we know now why we saw it and why it was one of the first things we recognized, and why some of the other problems which we've now been seeing we didn't see in the early stages, in the beginning, because people hadn't been infected long enough.

HAIRY LEUKOPLAKIA
This type of leukoplakia was first described in 1984. It is associated with the Epstein-Barr virus . The lesions have a typically corrugated surface, and they have most often been reported from the posterior tongue margins (I1), and - with increased frequency - in HIV positive and AIDS patients. They should always be further investigated with the aim to trace their pathogenesis. The histopathological changes in the surface epithelium of hairy leukoplakia normally accord well with the clinical appearance of the lesion (I2). BKGS REFERENCES: AUTHOR(S) TEXTBOOK REFBASE IMGBASE

The Oral Examination II. Medications and Oral Health ... Further Reading Oral health care is a critical component of comprehensive HIV medical management. Development of oral pathology is frequently associated with an underlying progression of HIV-disease status. A thorough soft-tissue examination may reveal pathology associated with dysphagia or odynophagia. Dental problems can result in or exacerbate nutritional problems. In addition, psychosocial and quality-of-life issues frequently are associated with the condition of the oral cavity and the dentition.

http://www.natip.org/mouth.html
RETURN TO INDEX SPANISH TRANSLATION Mouth and Throat Problems What are mouth and throat problems? The mouth and throat are the entry point of the digestive tract, where food is initially processed. The tongue is important for tasting food to make sure it is appetizing, the salivary glands for starting the digestive process, the teeth for grinding food, and the esophagus for moving it from the mouth to the stomach. Mouth and throat problems often lead to decreased oral intake and, if persistent or severe, can result in dehydration or malnutrition.
What type occur in HIV disease? Mouth and throat problems are sometimes the first signs of HIV disease ( Table 1 ). Many become more frequent or bothersome as the immune system gets weaker. The most common mouth and throat problems in HIV disease include oral candidiasis herpes simplex virus (HSV) infection hairy leukoplakia gingivitis and periodontal disease Kaposi's sarcoma (KS) , and aphthous ulcers ("canker sores")
What are the symptoms and signs of mouth and throat problems?

Oral lesions often occur in HIV and are reflections of reduced immune function manifested as oral opportunistic conditions, which are often the earliest clinical features of HIV infection. Some, in the presence of known HIV infection, are highly predictive of the ultimate development of the full syndrome, whereas others represent the Oral lesions seen in association with HIV infection are classified in Table 12-1, and our general approach to the diagnosis and management of oral HIV disease is summarized in Table 12-2.

Oral manifestations of viral infections more pronounced in immunosuppressed
by Bob Kronemyer
July 1997 "The mouth is the mirror of the body. But often it is overlooked," said John S. Greenspan, DDS, PhD, professor and chair of the department of stomatology and director of the Oral AIDS Center at the School of Dentistry, University and California San Francisco. "Diseases due to viruses in the mouth are quite common in the general, otherwise healthy, population," said Greenspan at the annual meeting of the American Academy of Dermatology here. The occurrence is greater among immunosuppressed people, though. "In the context of HIV infection and other forms of immunosuppression, such as kidney transplant patients, there is an increase in the frequency of these oral viral lesions." Moreover, these diseases often manifest differently in the immunosuppressed population. "Even new lesions have been seen," noted Greenspan.
