An abnormal white lesion on the tongue can be indicative of several conditions, including oral leukoplakia, which may result from irritation or tobacco use, or oral thrush, a fungal infection caused by Candida. Other possibilities include lichen planus or oral cancer, particularly if the lesion is persistent and not painful. It's important to consult a healthcare professional for an accurate diagnosis and appropriate management if such a lesion is observed. Regular oral examinations can help identify any concerning changes early.
The most common biopsy used in the oral cavity is the incisional biopsy. This procedure involves removing a small portion of a suspicious lesion for histopathological examination while leaving the majority of the lesion intact. It is typically performed when the lesion's size or location makes an excisional biopsy (removal of the entire lesion) impractical. Incisional biopsies help diagnose various conditions, including cancers and other oral pathologies.
