Title: Oral submucous fibrosis. Author: Morawetz G, Katsikeris N, Weinberg S, Listrom R. Journal: Int J Oral Maxillofac Surg; 1987 Oct; 16(5):609-14. PubMed ID: 3116118. Abstract: 2 cases of oral submucous fibrosis have been reported. In each case, the diagnosis was confirmed histologically, and the treatment instituted was identical.

The literature concerning oral submucous fibrosis is reviewed.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
