Resumo(s)
O cancro oral, apesar dos avanços médicos e tecnológicos, continua a ser um dos
cancros com muita incidência no mundo. Apesar de todos os avanços, a sobrevivência
não aumentou muito nos últimos anos. Este cancro é definido como uma neoplasia
maligna e tem quase sempre tem origem nas células escamosas e frequentemente existe
um aparecimento de lesões pré malignas, muitas vezes não detetadas a tempo e
transformando-se assim em cancro. Este cancro tem vários fatores de risco associados,
inclusive os vírus. Dois destes vírus são o vírus do papiloma humano e o Epstein-Barr
virus.
É importante o médico dentista estar atento ao aparecimento de lesões como por
exemplo os papilomas, indicadores na cavidade oral da presença do HPV. Quanto ao
EBV o médico dentista não tem nenhum sinal que caracterize o vírus diretamente, no
entanto tem de estar atento a uma linfadenopatia e faringite que podem ser indicadores
de uma mononucleose, proveniente deste vírus.
Oral cancer, despite medical and technological advances, remains one of the most prevalent cancers in the world. Despite all the advances, survival has not increased much in recent years. This cancer is defined as a malignant neoplasia and it almost always originates from squamous cells and there is often an appearance of premalignant lesions, often not detected in time, turning into cancer. This cancer has several associated risk factors, including viruses. Two of these viruses are the human papilloma virus and the Epstein-Barr virus. It is important for the dentist to be aware of the appearance of lesions such as papillomas, which are indicators in the oral cavity of the presence of HPV. As for EBV, the dentist does not have any signs that characterize the virus directly, however he must be aware of lymphadenopathy and pharyngitis that can be indicators of mononucleosis, coming from this virus.
