Development of Precancerous Lesions
Filed Under Skin Care
Precancerous lesion is described as a pathologic change in the human body tissue. It may also be described as the pathologic disturbance of a tissue coupled with the loss of continuity or enlargement. The precancerous lesion is an abnormality found in a tissue or a wound that is not yet confirmed to be malignant. However, it shows vague signs of the development of cancer in future.
The Dysplasia is the earliest phase or form of the precancerous lesion. It is normally recognizable in a biopsy by a pathologist. Dyspasia can be of high or low grade. With the high grade Dyspasia, the risk of getting cancer is very high whereas the low grade has low chances of cancer contraction. The Carcinoma in situ is a synonymous Dyspasia in the high grade form.
The risk of the Carcinoma situ transforming into cancer are very high since it occurs in the high grade form. The final stage of the development of the precancerous lesion is the Invasive carcinoma. Invasive carcinoma is commonly known as cancer and it is the final phase in this particular sequence. When left an attended, this condition will ‘attack’ the host and may end up lethal.
