Can oral lichen planus undergo malignant transformation?
Yes. Oral lichen planus, particularly persistent erosive or atrophic forms,
carries a recognized but low risk of malignant transformation. Suspicious
or changing lesions should be clinically evaluated and biopsied when indicated.
Which oral lesion is associated with ulcerative colitis?
Pyostomatitis vegetans is a characteristic oral manifestation associated
particularly with ulcerative colitis. It may present as multiple yellow-white
pustules on an erythematous mucosal background.
What is the lupus band test?
The lupus band test demonstrates immunoglobulin and complement deposition
along the dermoepidermal junction or basement membrane zone by
immunofluorescence. It is classically associated with lupus erythematosus.
What is Auspitz sign?
Auspitz sign is the appearance of multiple pinpoint bleeding spots after
removal of the scale from a psoriatic plaque. It results from exposure
or rupture of superficial dermal papillary capillaries.
What causes lichenoid reactions?
Lichenoid reactions may be caused by certain medications. These
immune-mediated reactions can resemble oral lichen planus clinically
and histologically.
Are these MCQs useful for dental board examinations?
Yes. These scenario-based MCQs are useful for revision in oral medicine,
oral pathology, autoimmune diseases, and dental board examinations,
including BDS and postgraduate entrance preparation.
