Oral submucous fibrosis (OSF), a chronic progressive disorder, is regarded as the premalignant lesion of oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). Its distribution is associated with chewing betel quid (BQ). The objective of the present Study was to investigate risk factors for the carcinogenesis of OSF in mainland China. A case-control Study was performed in 42 patients with OSCC that originated from OSF and 40 OSF controls. Epidemiological data and information related to risk factors were collected using a short structured questionnaire. Odd ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) were derived from logistic regression analysis. In multivariate analysis, only age, duration of BQ chewing, duration of cigarette smoking, and OSF accompanied by oral leukoplakia or oral lichen planus were associated with significantly increased risk for the malignant trans formation of OSF. These findings contribute to Current knowledge on the prevention of carcinogenesis of OSF in mainland China.
