Textbook Question
Chapter 2, Problem 2CRCAQ
Kareem had a nervous habit of chewing on the inner lining of his lip with his front teeth. The lip grew thicker and thicker from years of continual irritation. Kareem's dentist noticed his greatly thickened lip, then told him to have it checked to see if the thickening was a tumor. A biopsy revealed hyperplasia and scattered areas of dysplasia, but no evidence of tumor. What do these terms mean? Did Kareem have cancer of the mouth?
