Resumo
Este relato apresenta os aspectos clínicos, microscópicos e imuno-histoquímicos de um caso de leucoplasia verrucosa proliferativa (LPV) mimetizando líquen plano oral (LPO) em uma paciente do sexo feminino de 66 anos. Também revisamos a literatura relatando casos de LPV mimetizando LPO, onde encontramos maior prevalência em mulheres que não consomem tabaco ou álcool, com manifestação inicial de áreas liquenoides por volta dos 59 anos, sendo estabelecido o diagnóstico de LPV em média 6 anos depois, enquanto a transformação maligna ocorreu em 8 dos 22 casos em média 3,7 anos após o diagnóstico final de LPV. Ressaltamos a necessidade de acompanhamento rigoroso de qualquer paciente que apresente lesões brancas da mucosa oral, devendo ser investigadas lesões clinicamente e microscopicamente compatíveis com reações liquenóides ou LPO e diferenciadas da LPV, que tem pior prognóstico.
