dc.description.abstract Oral submucous fibrosis (OSF) is a high risk precancerous condition characterized by changes in the connective tissue fibers of the lamina propria and deeper parts leading to stiffness of the mucosa and restricted mouth opening. Patients with severe cases have distinct difficulties in chewing, swallowing and speaking. It predominantly occurs in Indians and other population of the Indian subcontinent with certain oral habits. In patients with submucous fibrosis, the oral epithelium becomes atrophic and thereby becomes more vulnerable to carcinogens. It is now accepted that chewing areca is the most important aetiological factor for developing OSF. The atrophic epithelium shows first an intercellular edema and later epithelial atypia associated with moderate epithelial hyperplasia. From then on, carcinoma may develop any time. It is suggested that submucous fibrosis should be regarded as a condition that causes predisposition to the development of oral cancer. Here we are presenting two cases of oral submucous fibrosis showing malignant potential and development of oral squamous cell carcinoma. en_US
