BIOPSY- AN OVERVIEW

Journal Title: World Journal of Pharmaceutical and life sciences - Year 2017, Vol 3, Issue 10

Abstract

Proper management of an oral mucosal lesion begins with diagnosis, and the gold standard for diagnosing disease, oral or otherwise, is tissue biopsy. Oral tissue biopsy may be necessary for lesions that cannot be diagnosed on the basis of the history and clinical findings alone. Accurate diagnosis of premalignant or malignant oral lesions depends on the quality of the biopsy, adequate clinical information and correct interpretation of the biopsy results. This article provides an overview of the oral soft-tissue biopsy and highlights some potential pitfalls.
