| Popis: | Objective: The purpose of this retrospective study was to look into patterns in the diagnosis and treatment of oral mucosal disorders over a 12-year period in a tertiary care environment. Methods: A comprehensive review of medical records from a Tertiary Care Center was conducted, encompassing 2010–2022. Data on patient demographics, clinical presentations, diagnostic methods, treatment modalities, and outcomes were systematically analyzed. Descriptive statistics and trend analyses were employed to discern patterns and changes over time. Results: A total of 500 cases were included in the research, with a mean age of 42.5 years. Aphthous ulcers, oral lichen planus, and candidiasis were the predominant diseases, collectively constituting 58% of cases. Diagnostic modalities varied, including biopsy and imaging. Treatment modalities ranged from topical agents to surgical procedures, tailored to specific diagnoses. The prevalence of squamous cell carcinoma was noteworthy at 8%. Conclusion: This research provides insights into the evolving landscape of oral mucosal disease diagnosis and treatment in tertiary care. Identified trends emphasize the importance of individualized care, advancements in diagnostic techniques, and ongoing research collaboration. Addressing challenges identified in this research is crucial for enhancing patient outcomes and shaping future research directions. |
