Risk factors for infections with multidrug-resistant Stenotrophomonas maltophilia in patients with cancer.

abstract：:A study of 112 biopsy specimens from Danish oral leukoplakia patients and 145 biopsy specimens from Indian leukoplakia patients revealed a chevron-like keratinization of the epithelium in a number of cases. Clinically, this type of keratinization was often characterized by a pumice-like appearance. The clinical and hi...
