Abstract
HIV-infected individuals are at increased risk of oral cavity Kaposi sarcoma and non-Hodgkin lymphoma. However, it is suggested this patient population may also be at increased risk of oral cavity squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). It remains unclear whether this is secondary to known risk factors (such as smoking and alcohol) or relates to HIV-specific factors, such as coinfection with human papillomavirus or Candida species, or the use of highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART).
