Stan McGuff, D.D.S.* The University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio Department of Pathology * Diplomates, American Board of Oral and Maxillofacial Pathology CLINICAL CORRELATION: HAIRY LEUKOPLAKIA - Dr. Anne Cale Jones Hairy leukoplakia is a unique form of hyperkeratosis caused by the Epstein-Barr virus (EBV). The majority of cases occur in individuals who are HIV seropositive. Examples have also been reported in individuals who have received solid organ transplants but are otherwise, HIV seronegative. Hairy leukoplakia presents as an asymptomatic white, corrugated lesion involving the lateral tongue. Occasional cases may involve the adjacent dorsal and ventral tongue. Although uncommon, examples of hairy leukoplakia have been reported involving other oral mucosa sites including the retromolar area and soft palate. Most cases of hairy leukoplakia are asymptomatic and are only identified following a routine oral examination. Histopathologic examination reveals hyperplastic stratified squamous epithelium covered by a thickened layer of parakeratin interspersed with occasional fungal organisms.

Prospective and retrospective cohort study, with interview and examination twice a year since 1988. Data on 516 HIV-infected men from cohorts of homosexual and bisexual men in San Francisco, Denver and Chicago, who were repeatedly interviewed and examined between 1988 and 1992, were analysed. Univariate and Kaplan-Meier survival analyses were performed to assess the relationship between cigarette smoking and loss of CD4+ T-lymphocytes, diagnosis of any AIDS-defining illness, and specific diagnosis of Kaposi's sarcoma, Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia (PCP), oral candidiasis, hairy leukoplakia, and community-acquired pneumonia.

Oral Viral Lesion (Hairy Leukoplakia) Associated with Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome
From October 1981 to June 1985, 13 (11%) of 123 patients with hairy leukoplakia (HL) seen in San Francisco, California, were additionally diagnosed as having acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). Eighty (73%) of the 110 patients who did not have AIDS at the time of HL diagnosis were followed (1). Twenty of these developed AIDS within 1-33 months (mean 7.5 months) of HL diagnosis. Seventy-nine serum specimens from the 123 patients with HL were tested for antibody to human T-lymphotropic virus type III/lymphadenopathy-associated virus (HTLV-III/LAV) by indirect immunofluorescence (2). Of these, 78 (99%) were positive. The one negative result was also negative by Western blot test. All cases met the CDC case definition for AIDS. Oral viral "hairy" leukoplakia of the tongue appears as raised white areas of thickening on the tongue, usually on the lateral border. The lesions may not respond to traditional antifungal therapy and appear to have unusual virologic features. Candida has been reported on the surface of the HL lesions. A number of viruses, including papilloma, herpes, and Epstein-Barr, have been identified by electron microscopy in biopsies obtained from the HL lesions. HL was first identified in San Francisco in 1981. The lesion has also been reported in patients examined in Los Angeles, California; Baltimore, Maryland; Ann Arbor, Michigan; Paris, France; Copenhagen, Denmark; and London, England.

Development of oral pathology is frequently associated with an underlying progression of HIV-disease status. A thorough soft-tissue examination may reveal pathology associated with dysphagia or odynophagia. Dental problems can result in or exacerbate nutritional problems. In addition, psychosocial and quality-of-life issues frequently are associated with the condition of the oral cavity and the dentition.

CAPLAN Temple University, Philadelphia, PA, USA, University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill, USA Occurrence of oral candidiasis (OC) and oral hairy leukoplakia (OHL) singly or together in HIV-1 infected persons may reflect an impaired oral defense system. Literature describing joint occurrence of these diseases is sparse. Objective: To develop an explanatory multivariable model for joint occurrence of OC and OHL. Methods: This cross-sectional study evaluated 631 adult dentate HIV-1 seropositive persons (race: White/ Black only) examined for OC and OHL from 1995 - 2000 at the University of North Carolina Hospitals in Chapel Hill, NC. Data collected from medical record review, interview questionnaires and clinical examinations were analyzed using chi-sq tests, t-tests, and ANOVA. Multivariable proportional odds models were developed, employing likelihood ratio test, using those without OC or OHL as the outcome reference group. Independent variables included: age, race, sex, sexual orientation, smoking, recreational drug use, CD4 cell count, antiretroviral medication use, and antifungal medication use. Results: m l [adj.

    Q Hairy Leukoplakia My doctor has told me that I have hairy leukoplakia. I have tried a pridex rinse but it did not help. If you have any other suggestions please let me know. A: Barbara Scott, MPH, RD responds: Administrator's note: For some additional tips check out Jennifer's article The Mouth:Its Care and Feeding Q Perleche What is perleche? Is it related to yeast or thrush? A: Charlie Smigelski, RD responds: Administrator's Note: According to Taber's Cyclopedic Medical Dictionary , perleche is a "disorder marked by fissures and epithelial desquamation at corners of the mouth, esp. seen in children. May be due to oral candidiasis or may be a symptom of dietary deficiency, esp. riboflavin deficiency.") As noted in the above definition, perleche is often associated with the growth of Candida/yeast cells in the corner of the mouth. Since Candida has been modestly correlated with low selenium levels, I would encourage you to check your supplement intake and be sure you are getting 200 mcg of selenium a day. I recall a conversation with Jennifer when she advocated 400 mcg or more a day. I do suggest the higher amounts for Hep C poz people. Hep C is an RNA virus whose growth is sensive to selenium/glutathioone deficiencies. B vitamin deficencies (like riboflavin) also produce cracks in the corner of the mouth. This is different in its cause from the yeast-generated condition, but obviously a good B Complex vitamin is in order. I often recommend a Complex 25 or a Complex 50 to get enough.

    Normal Oral Epithelium Supports Persistent EBV Infection in HIV-Infected Patients
    NEW YORK (Reuters Health) - The normal oral epithelium of HIV-infected patients can support persistent Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection. However, while productive EBV replication is needed for oral hairy leukoplakia to occur, it is not sufficient by itself, according to a report in the December 15th issue of The Journal of Infectious Diseases
    Dr. Dennis M. Walling, from the University of Texas Medical Branch at Galveston, and colleagues assessed EBV replication in tongue biopsy specimens from two HIV-infected patients who were treated with valacyclovir. Specimens were obtained before treatment, on day 28 of treatment, and 28 days after discontinuing treatment. One of the subjects had hairy leukoplakia, while the other did not.
    The researchers found evidence of EBV replication in both hairy leukoplakia and normal tongue tissues. Valacyclovir treatment completely eradicated EBV replication and led to resolution of hairy leukoplakia in the affected patient. After treatment discontinuation, EBV replication in normal epithelial cells returned in both patients.
    The finding that hairy leukoplakia and normal tissues demonstrated similar EBV replication levels suggests that other cofactors are needed for the development of hairy leukoplakia. "Identification of these cofactors...could have implications for understanding EBV pathogenesis in other EBV-associated epithelial diseases, such as nasopharyngeal carcinoma," the authors note.

    Oral Complications of HIV Infection
    Oral lesions often occur in HIV and are reflections of reduced immune function manifested as oral opportunistic conditions, which are often the earliest clinical features of HIV infection. Some, in the presence of known HIV infection, are highly predictive of the ultimate development of the full syndrome Oral lesions seen in association with HIV infection are classified in Table 12-1, and our general approach to the diagnosis and management of oral HIV disease is summarized in Table 12-2 Candidiasis The pseudomembranous form of oral candidiasis (thrush) was described in the first group of AIDS patients and is a harbinger of the full-blown syndrome in HIV-seropositive individuals. We have shown that both oral candidiasis and hairy leukoplakia predict the development of AIDS in HIV-infected patients independently Table 12-1.

Good oral health can help you prevent or catch infections early. It can also give you clues as to the state of your overall health and your immune system.
    Starting and Keeping Good Oral Health
    Brushing
    Toothbrush and Toothpaste
    Dentists recommend toothbrushes with soft bristles because hard ones can cause the gums to bleed and recede, leaving unprotected areas prone to infection. Toothbrushes should be replaced every month or two. The most important consideration regarding toothpaste is whether or not it contains fluoride. Aside from that, specific brands are more of a personal choice and needs. Table of Contents
    Dental Floss
    Mouthwash
    Using a mouthwash at least twice a day can add fluoride to your teeth, kill bacteria often responsible for bad breath, reduce plaque which can cause cavities and prevent gum disease. Many prescription and over-the-counter mouthwashes are effective, but most of them contain up to 25% alcohol. Since this amount of alcohol can cause a painful burning sensation, some may find it necessary to use an alcohol-free rinse. Most alcohol-free mouthwashes are as effective as those with alcohol.
