title: Oral white sponge naevus: case report.
abstract: The clinical appearances of white sponge naevus may mimic other oral white lesions, including premalignant leukoplakia but, unlike leukoplakia, white sponge naevus does not have malignant potential. This article presents a case of an irregular white lesion on the oral mucosa with findings suggestive of white sponge naevus.
