Thanks, Brian...
I did read about studies regarding removal and its unpredictable results when I searched the main body of this website. Thanks for providing such thorough reference material under that capability.

If I would have been with my husband during this latest check, I think I would have pressed for a biopsy - just to know what level of dysplasia is involved, etc.

But I am still curious about the ENT Surgeon's remark that he sees quite a bit of leukoplakia in patients that have had radiation. Just haven't seen that as a radiation or xerostomia after-effect anywhere.
