Resumo

ObjectiveThis systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to compare the risk of recurrence and cancer progression after surgical treatment for oral potentially malignant disorders (OPMD) and precancerous lesions in different anatomical sites.Materials and MethodsA comprehensive search was conducted in nine databases and grey literature. We included randomized controlled trials assessing surgical treatment efficacy for OPMD and precancerous lesions of cervical, vaginal, anal, and penile sites. Excision or ablation surgical treatments were considered.ResultsOverall, 12 studies met the eligibility criteria for oral leukoplakia (OL), proliferative verrucous leukoplakia, cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN), vaginal intraepithelial neoplasia, and anal intraepithelial neoplasia (AIN). In qualitative analysis of surgical protocols, the lack of margin description impacts the clinical outcomes of OL and AIN, and the ablative protocols were heterogeneous in both OPMD and precancerous lesions. No significant difference in OL (risk ratio 0.82 [95% CI: 0.59-1.15]) and CIN (risk ratio 0.31 [95% CI: 0.09-1.09]) for recurrence was observed when cold-knife was compared with ablative protocols. OL exhibited higher recurrence and cancer progression rates compared to CIN and AIN.ConclusionThere is no difference in recurrence risk post-surgical treatment for OL and CIN. Surgical protocols for oral leukoplakia and CIN/AIN lack standardized approaches. (AU)
