Rate of malignant transformation of oral lichen planus: A systematic review.

TL;DR: This systematic review confirms that both OLP and OLL, the latter with a slightly higher TR, may be considered potentially malignant disorders and suggest that erosive type, female gender and tongue site should be considered as risk factors for OLP transformation.
