Abstract

Objective: The destinations of this examination were to direct a review of oral biopsied recorded to oral
lesions in Basrah and compare with other studies.

histopathological laboratories of Basrah Dental College, Basrah General Hospital and Al-Sadder Teaching
Hospital and data from Basrah Cancer Registry. The biopsy result classified into six types: reactionary
lesions, benign lesions, malignant lesions, cystic lesions, salivary gland lesions and Immunologically
mediated lesions. From the oral biopsy records, information gathered included age grouped as follow:
under 20, 20-29, 30-39, 40-49, 50-59, 60-69 and above 69. Sex: male and female. The anatomical area
includes buccal mucosa, the floor of the mouth, gingiva, lower and upper lips, lower and upper jaws and
tongue.
Results: The all outnumber of biopsy recorded was 560 report, about (n=283) 50.54% of the lesions taken
from the male while (n=277) 49.46% were for females. The mean age at introduction was 38 years with
the age range of 1 to 85 years. The peak age was ages underneath 20 years 124 (22.1%). The dominant
part of the lesions has influenced the tongue 101 (18%) followed by buccal mucosa 89(15.9%)and gingiva
88(15.7%). Regular pathology discovered was reactionary injuries about 240(42.9%) biopsies, Malignant
lesions accounted 107 (19.1%), Benigne lesions making up 91 (16.3%), Cyst 74(13.2%), Salivary gland
lesions about 34(6.1%) biopsies and the Immunologically interceded lesions were 15 (2.9%)
