Malignant Condition

Oral submucous fibrosis is a pre-malignant condition commonly prevalent in India, Pakistan, Taiwan and Sri Lanka. Patients characteristically exhibit progressive reduction in mouth opening. The disease has a high malignant potential and thus should be diagnosed and treated at the earliest. However, none of the currently used medical therapies show promising results. The current article briefly reviews the role of Aloe vera in the management of oral submucous fibrosis.

Subsequent Relapse

Oral submucous fibrosis is one of the leading potentially malignant disorders prevailing in India. A number of conservative and surgical treatment options have been suggested for this potentially malignant disorder (Arakeri and Brennan, 2013). While the role of physiotherapy has been highlighted in the conservative management, its importance in postsurgical cases to avoid scar contracture and subsequent relapse has not been given due importance in the literature. The following is a case report of a male patient surgically treated for OSMF (oral submucous fibrosis) and meticulously followed up for recalls and physiotherapy. The constant supervision and motivation for physiotherapy along with the constant assistance helped achieve satisfying results.
