dc.description.abstractBackground: Oral and maxillofacial lesions (OMFL) consist of a various malignant and benign lesions of the oral cavity. The aim of this study was to report the details of OMFL that had been diagnosed histologically at Oral Pathology Unit of a Dental Institute of eastern UP region. Materials and Methods: Oral cavity biopsied submitted to the Oral Pathology Unit during the period from 2016 to 2021 was evaluated. Information on age, gender, and histopathologic diagnosis was analyzed. Results: A total of 1128 biopsies were examined and analyzed. Reactive lesions were the most common type (n = 267; 23.7%) of lesions diagnosed, and epithelial malignancies (n = 250; 22.2%) were second most common type of lesion followed by cystic lesions (n = 202; 17.92%), epithelial lesions (n = 141; 12.5%), and odontogenic tumors (n = 122; 10.82%). Conclusion: The results provide important information on the prevalence and distribution of OMFL in eastern UP region of India. Reactive lesions were the most common type of OMFL diagnosed. Most of the lesions were soft tissue lesions, inflammatory in origin, and benign in nature. Multicentric studies involving larger sample should be carried out to assess the pattern of oral diseases in our community leading to the overall betterment of our society. � 2022, The Association of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons of India.
