Oral hairy leukoplakia is a condition that the Epstein-Barr virus can trigger. It happens most often in people whose immune systems are very weak and is most often seen in people with HIV. The condition causes white lesions, or patches, on the tongue.
Most cases of leukoplakia do not turn into cancer. But some leukoplakias are either cancer when first found or have pre-cancer changes that can turn into cancer if not properly treated. Erythroplakia and erythroleukoplakia are less common, but are usually more serious.
Outlook (Prognosis) Leukoplakia is usually harmless. Patches in the mouth often clear up in a few weeks or months after the source of irritation is removed. In some cases, the patches may be an early sign of cancer.
