title: [A proposal of a new histological method for the dynamic diagnosis of the disease stage in oral lichen planus].
abstract: The paper describes a histological fixing and staining technique capable of identifying the stage of disease in oral lichen planus. This is based on staining the nuclei on the basal stratum blue instead of red-orange as normally occurs using Mallory's technique. Under particular conditions of increased cellular protein synthesis these become a typical blue colour.
