We are presenting the imaging findings of COVID-19-related leukoencephalopathy associated with bilateral reticular formation diffusion restriction in brain magnetic resonance imaging. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first reported case of bilateral reticular formation affection in a COVID-19 patient.

OP is a rare condition characterized by inflammation in the alveoli, which spreads to alveolar ducts and terminal bronchioles, usually after lung injuries caused by infections or other factors. OP is classified into cryptogenic (idiopathic) and secondary forms, the latter arising after infections, connective tissue diseases, tumors, or treatments like drugs and radiotherapy.

Article Synopsis
  • The study focused on comparing oral lichen planus and related lesions due to their risk of becoming cancerous and the need to differentiate them from similar conditions.
  • Researchers conducted a survey among patients to collect sociodemographic and clinical data, analyzing this information using statistical tests.
  • The findings revealed distinct characteristics for each type of lesion, with lichen planus showing reticular patterns and the buccal mucosa being the most affected area, while proliferative verrucous leukoplakia was linked with significant epithelial dysplasia.
