The diagnosis of lesions clinically suggestive of hairy leukoplakia was assessed by light and electron microscopic examination of cytologic smears. We found exfoliative cytology to be a simple and noninvasive technique that can confirm the clinical diagnosis of hairy leukoplakia. Our results suggest that electron microscopy may be more sensitive and reliable than light microscopy in confirming the clinical diagnosis of hairy leukoplakia.
通过对细胞学涂片进行光镜和电镜检查,对临床上疑似毛状白斑的病变进行诊断评估。我们发现脱落细胞学是一种简单且无创的技术,可用于确诊毛状白斑的临床诊断。我们的结果表明,在确诊毛状白斑的临床诊断方面,电子显微镜可能比光学显微镜更敏感、更可靠。
