title: [Acute leukemia: oral manifestations and treatment].
abstract: In the treatment of leukemia (whose viral etiology has not yet been established), certain drugs show a significant oral toxicity, sometimes manifested in the form of pain, an often as superficial white, red-bordered patches in the gums, labial mucosa, palate and pharynx, among other locations. It is, therefore, important for the odontologist to be conscious of leucemic manifestations, as well as interested in assuming an active role when caring for patients subjected to treatment for this malady.
