Oral leukoplakia (OL) is a premalignant lesion described as “a predominant white lesion of the oral mucosa which cannot be defined as any other known lesion”. OL located on the floor of the mouth, soft palate and tongue are considered as high-risk lesions, while, in other areas, they may be considered as of low malignancy risk. A Forty five years old male patient had complaints of white lesion on left lat. Surface of tongue, along with burning sensation since 4-5 months. He was diagnosed with Leukoplakia and he had taken allopathic medicine for 4 to 5 times, but it was inversely relapsed, so he was treated with Pratisarana of Bibhitaka Churna and Rasayana Churna, Yastimadhu Ghanavati as lozenges along with Rasayana tablets orally for a period of 6 months.

A 91-year-old Caucasian man on warfarin for atrial fibrillation presented in view of sudden-onset haemoptysis with fresh bleeding with clots immediately after having eaten a piping-hot traditional cheesecake (pastizz) and burning the soft-palate of his mouth. The haemoptysis had resolved by the time that the patient had arrived to hospital. On examination, a 2 cm by 2 cm dark red, solitary mass could be seen just anterior to the uvula. This was not causing any pain or discomfort to the patient. Blood results were mostly unremarkable except for a raised international normalised ratio (INR) of 3.53. The patient was administered 5 mg vitamin K orally in attempt to lower the INR level and warfarin was subsequently omitted for 7 days. He was also prescribed oral steroids on discharge. The lesion resolved in 7 days and warfarin was restarted then with no further consequences.
