Brief Title: Cytological Screening for Early Diagnosis of Precancerous or Cancerous Lesions of Oral Cavity
Official Title: Interest of Cytological Screening for Early Diagnosis of Precancerous or Cancerous Lesions of Oral Cavity by Transepithelial Brushing in Liquid-based
Study ID: NCT02604121
Brief Summary: Prospective study of diagnosis validation of a cytological technique. 200 patients with oral cavity cancerous and precancerous lesions will be enrolled. A cytological sample of the lesion will be performed by transepithelial brushing ( Orcellex® Rovers brush) in cytology liquid-based technology (methode ThinPrep 2000 (Hologic®)). A microscopic double blind reading will be performed. A biopsy sampling will be carried out in accordance with current strategy of screening. The brushing diagnosis quality will be compared to the biopsy which is the gold standard.
