Abstract

Oral benign tumors are common in the Indian subcontinent. These benign neoplastic lesions may mimic other tumors like lesions or malignant tumors of the oral cavity. Aim: The current study's goal is to investigate the demographical distribution of benign tumors of the oral cavity and to study their histopathological and site-wise distribution. Materials and method: It's a retrograde observational study of 30 patients. In the Indian subcontinent, benign tumors and tumor-like lesions are prevalent. Data is collected from the otorhinolaryngology department of a referral center and medical college in the Maharashtra state of India. Data was collected from previous histopathological reports of excision biopsies done in the Otorhinolaryngology Department. Result: papilloma is the most common benign tumor found in the present study is a retrospective observational study. This research was carried out at tertiary care referring facility and health college in the Indian state of Maharashtra. Data were collected from 30 patients from the department of otorhinolaryngology and histopathology reports of benign neoplastic lesions.

Highlights

Oral benign tumors and tumor-like lesions are common in the Indian subcontinent
The 30 to 60years age group was most commonly affected. In males, it was 30 to 70 yrsIn Table 1 shows the analysis of benign neoplastic tumors of the oral cavity by age group
The current research examined the distribution of harmless neoplastic lesions of the oral cavity by age group

Summary

Introduction

Oral benign tumors and tumor-like lesions are common in the Indian subcontinent. The present study is about benign neoplastic lesions. Benign tumors mimic other tumor-like lesions or malignant tumors of the oral cavity. Histopathological examination plays an important role here to distinguish them [1,2]. Benign neoplastic lesions of the oral cavity are from the epithelium (papilloma), soft tissue (haemangioma, lipoma, nevus, lymphangioma), odontogenic origin (ameloblastoma, odontogenic keratocyst, adenomatoid odontogenic tumor), salivary gland tumors (pleomorphic adenoma, papillary cystadenoma), jawbones (osteoma, fibrous dysplasia). Presumably caused by human papillomavirus infection [1]
