Fibrous Lesions Of The Gingiva: A Histopathologic Analysis Of 204 Cases, Rosnah Binti Zain, Fei Y. J.
Fibrous Lesions Of The Gingiva: A Histopathologic Analysis Of 204 Cases, Rosnah Binti Zain, Fei Y. J.
Prof. Dr. Rosnah Binti Zain
Two hundred four cases of fibrous lesions of the gingiva were studied histologically for the presence of calcified tissue, the nature of the connective tissue, the type of keratinization, and the degree of epithelial thickness. Initially these lesions were subcategorized into four specific entities, namely fibrous epulis, fibroepithelial polyp, calcifying fibroblastic granuloma, and ossifying fibrous epulis. It was found that 46.5% of the lesions contained calcifications. The connective tissue was represented predominantly by either the collagenous type (50.5%) or the mixed (cellular and collagenous) type (44.6%). It was also found that 36% of the lesions were ulcerated, and, of these, …

Peripheral Fibroma/Fibrous Epulis With And Without Calcifications. A Clinical Evaluation Of 204 Cases In Singapore, Rosnah Binti Zain, Fei Y. J.
Prof. Dr. Rosnah Binti Zain
Peripheral fibroma/fibrous epulis accounts for the great majority of localised gingival swellings as was substantiated by various reports in the literature. A study was undertaken to investigate the clinical features of a series of 204 localised fibrous gingival swellings received by the Histopathology Laboratory, Department of Oral Surgery, National University of Singapore. The female patients were more affected than the male patients and the lesions occurred predominantly among the Chinese. The lesions were mainly pedunculated and most commonly occurred in anterior maxilla. The recurrence rate was about 10.3%. In conclusion the results obtained in this study were overall in agreement …

Prevalence Of Oral Soft-Tissue Lesions In Out-Patients At 2 Malaysian And Thai Dental Schools, Axell T., Rosnah Binti Zain, Siwamogstham P., Tantiniran D., Thampipit J.
Prof. Dr. Rosnah Binti Zain
At the Faculties of Dentistry in Chiang Mai, Thailand (CM), and Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia (KL), 234 and 233 consecutive out-patients of mean ages 33.8 and 31.0 yr, respectively, were examined for the presence of oral mucosal lesions. Tobacco in some form was regularly used by 31.7% and 27.5% of the study populations in CM and KL, respectively. Cigarette smoking was the predominant habit. In CM three persons chewed betel quids and nine smoked banana leaf cigars daily. In addition, there were 24 habitual chewers of tea leaves (miang). In KL six persons chewed betel quids daily. In CM and KL …
