CALZADO DE SILVA, Milagros; MARTINEZ CHASWELL, Daysi; ROSELL ULLOA, René y PERDOMO LEYVA, Doris. Evaluación citológica de la papilomatosis incipiente del paladar tratada con láser en portadores de prótesis. Rev Cubana Estomatol [online]. 2002, vol.39, n.1, pp. 5-10. ISSN 1561-297X.
A prospective longitudinal study consisiting in the cytological description (cellular type, percentage and variations of the nucleus, citoplasma and laminar fundus) of the samples obtained from 20 patients with incipient papillomatosis of the hard palate that were diagnosed and treated at the Consulting Room of Early Detection of Oral Cancer of the Provincial Teaching Dental Clinic, in Santiago de Cuba, was conducted. Inclusion criteria were gathered for this entity. The samples obtained by curettage on both sides of the mucosa were read at the beginning of the treatment at 3,6, 9, 12, 15 and 18 days to evaluate the epithelial recovery under the effects of the infrared laser of gallium and alluminum arsenid at doses of 6 J/cm3 during 12 to 15 sessions. The intermediate cells of the mucosa showed the highest level of multiplication. The epithelial recovery according to the average of cellular change proved to be faster in the cases that received less sessions. The mean recovery time was indicated in this sample from the third day of cytologic evaluation on.
