a gud case

a 5o year old male farmer came for new dentures.he had history of denture wearing since 3 years.
on examination intraorally an erythrematous area was present on hard palate so obviously it was thought it was due to the irritation from the denture.but on asking for medical history ..he gave history of spleen enlargement 3 years back.he showed me his reports.he was diagnosed as acase of chronic myeloid leukaemia.biopsy from bone marrows were performed.so it was a gud case to follow up.in CML intraorally echhymoses,petechie are seen.
