Abstract

Leukoplakia is a chronic pathological condition characterized by abnormal keratinization of epithelial tissues, primarily affecting mucous membranes. It is considered a potentially premalignant disorder with variable clinical presentation and risk of malignant transformation. This article reviews the current understanding of leukoplakia with a focus on its clinical symptoms, diagnostic approaches, and preventive strategies. Emphasis is placed on early detection and risk factor modification to reduce progression and recurrence.
