Objective. Oral exfoliative cytology (OEC) has been implemented in the diagnosis of pathologic lesions for ages. The present study was undertaken to evaluate the cytomorphological features of some of the commonest potentially malignant disorders (leukoplakia, lichen planus, and oral submucous fibrosis) through a simple procedure and illustrate its importance in mass screening.Materials and Method. A total of 160 subjects with 25–50 years of age were included in the study. Among them, 40 were clinically diagnosed with oral leukoplakia, 40 were diagnosed with oral lichen planus, 40 were diagnosed with oral submucous fibrosis, and 40 were in the control group. The prepared smears were subjected to Papanicolaou stain and analyzed microscopically for the evaluation of the cytomorphological features.Results and Discussion. When analyzed microscopically, 36 (90%) out of the 40 oral leukoplakic lesions showed Class II cytological features whereas 4 (10%) revealed Class I features. Among 40 patients with oral lichen planus, 26 (65%) showed Class II features while the remaining 14 (35%) revealed Class I features. In 40 subjects with oral submucous fibrosis, 32 (80%) showed Class II features while the other 8 (20%) showed Class I features. All the 40 control subjects showed Class I features. Thus, OEC can be widely advocated as an addition to clinical conclusion and an adjunct to biopsy.

Oral precancerous lesions and conditions like oral lichen planus, leukoplakia, or oral submucous fibrosis have the potential to develop into oral cancer. Oral cancer accounts for approximately 3 % of all malignancies. Oral lichen planus is a premalignant condition occurring in the oral cavity due to various factors. Blood investigations are routinely done minimally invasive procedures carried out for various diagnostic purposes. The study aims to identify if the complete blood count (CBC) can be used as a pathologic diagnostic marker in an oral premalignant disorder like oral lichen planus. A total of 64 patients (38 female, 26 male) were taken into the study between the period July 2019 - March 2020. Each patient is exposed to blood investigations, and their results are studied. The results of the study show a minimal variation in the blood results. In conclusion, to determine if it can be used as a pathological diagnostic marker in premalignant disorders like oral lichen planus, further studies must be carried out in larger populations.
