Oral manifestations are common in patients with chronicgraft-versus-host disease (cGVHD). However, few studies presentsystematic results on the prevalence of its different clinical pre-sentations. This study evaluates the frequency of oral cGVHDfeatures. Materials and Methods: Patients with symptomatic oralcGVHD were studied. Demographic and clinical data were takenfrom medical records. Oral features were assessed through Na-tional Institutes of Health (NIH) criteria. A descriptive analysiswas performed. Results: Twenty-two patients were included,43.8% of whom were male. Patients presented diagnostic(87.5%), distinctive (100%), and common (100%) features of oralcGVHD. The gingiva was the most commonly affected anatom-ical site. Ulceration was the most frequent type of oral lesion,which is related to the inclusion of patients with symptomaticcGVHD. Salivary gland dysfunction was observed in 87.5% ofcases. Conclusions: Oral involvement was frequent in the popu-lation studied. The calibration of investigators is important for anadequate diagnosis of oral cGVHD.
PE-397 - GLUT-1 AS A TOOL FOR THE CORRECTDIAGNOSIS OF HEMANGIOMAS: AN UPDATE OFALL CASES DIAGNOSED AT AN ORAL PATHOLOGYSERVICE.

This study analyzed the immunohistochemical expression ofhuman glucose transporter proteins (GLUT-1) in all cases diag-nosed as hemangiomas from a service of Oral Pathology andreclassified such lesions according their immunoexpression.Study Design: A total of 79 cases histologically diagnosed ashemangiomas were retrieved from a total of 12,100 lesionsdiagnosed at the Division of Oral Pathology, Federal Universityof Rio Grande do Norte, between 1970 and 2013. For all thoselesions, we assessed the immunohistochemical expression ofGLUT-1. Some cases were reclassified as pyogenic granulomas(PG) and vascular malformations (VM). Results: This researchshowed that only 26 cases initially classified as hemangiomaspresented immunopositivity for GLUT-1 and fit the initial diag-nosis. The remaining 53 cases were reclassified as PG (20 cases)and VM (33 cases). Conclusion: This study showed that thehistological diagnosis alone is not always enough for the correctdiagnosis of infantile hemangiomas.

This study evaluated the clinical, histopathological, andimmunohistochemical features of granular cell tumors of the oralcavity. Study Design: Granular cell tumors were retrieved fromthe files of two oral pathology laboratories in Brazil from 1975 to
2013. Twenty-five cases were included and subjected to immu-nohistochemical analysis through the streptavidin-biotin tech-nique. Results: Most patients were in the third decade of life(mean age 36 years), and the lesions were observed mainly in thetongue of females. Microscopically, tumors were composed ofclusters of polygonal cells with abundant granular cytoplasm inthe connective tissue, which was covered by superficial epithe-lium with pseudoepitheliomatous hyperplasia. The tumor cellswere positive for S-100, CD63, and CD68, and they were nega-tive for CD163 and Claudin-1. Conclusion: Granular cell tumorsare uncommon neural tumors that mainly affect the tongue ofadult patients. The neural granular cells probably exhibit histio-cytic differentiation and are not related to perineural cells.

Periapical granulomas (PG) and radicular cysts (RC) arecommon inflammatory periapical lesions whose etiology isassociated with the presence of bacteria in root canals. The studyinvestigated and compared the histopathological features of PGsand RCs. Methods: Fifty specimens, including 25 PGs and 25RCs, were evaluated histopathologically. Results: Analysis of theinflammatory infiltrate in PGs revealed 21 cases (84%) with in-flammatory infiltrate grade III, 3 cases (12%) grade II, and 1 case(4%) grade I. Among the RCs, 14 cases (56%) showed inflam-matory infiltrate grade III, 8 cases (32%) grade II, and 3 cases(12%) infiltrate grade I. Morphological analysis of the epithelialthickness in RCs revealed the presence of an atrophic epitheliumin 14 cases (58%). Conclusion: There were more inflammatorycells in cases of PGs than in cases of RCs, suggesting higherantigenic stimulation in PGs.

Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) is one of the most commongenetic diseases and can affect many organic systems. Nostudies investigated the glandular function in NF1 individuals.This study evaluated the unstimulated (US) and stimulatedsalivary flow (SS) in 37 patients with NF1. Material andMethods: Whole saliva was measured between 8:00 and 12:00AM using the spitting method (5 min). Salivary flow rates wereclassified as very low (US < 0.1 mL/min; SS < 0.7 mL/min),low (US 0.1 to 0.25 mL/min; SS 0.7 to 1.0 mL/min), and normal(US > 0.25 mL/min; SS >1.0 mL/min). Results: The prevalenceof hyposalivation was high (US ¼ 62.1%; SS ¼ 78.4%) in NF1,and the majority presented very low rates (US ¼ 60.8%; SS ¼72.4%). There was no association with drugs that cause xero-stomia. Hyposalivation is common among individuals with NF1.Conclusion: Other studies are needed to investigate if NF1 is apredisposing disease for hyposalivation or if other factors areassociated with hyposalivation in NF1.
