In the developed world, @entity5 are more frequent in males than females. Recent observations from Greece suggest that the number of females is increasing. AIM: The present study investigates gender and age statistics among subjects with @entity5 or @entity12120 . METHODS: Five hundred and twelve subjects of Greek origin participated in this analysis. Chi-square and logistic regression statistics were used to compare if there are differences in @entity1 ' gender and age, stratified by histological type. RESULTS: @entity5 and @entity12120 exhibited equal distributions among @entity1 and @entity1 . @entity1 were diagnosed at a much younger age than @entity1 . Our data also indicates a progression in the process of epithelial @entity5 development, as benign @entity12120 was diagnosed 2-4 years earlier than @entity5115 and 8 years earlier than @entity957 ( @entity957 ). The same age difference was observed in @entity1893 , although the male to female ratio was 3:1. In regards to anatomy, 47% of @entity957 appeared in the tongue. The most prevalent site for the development of @entity1893 was the gingival (50%), followed by the palate (40%). CONCLUSION: Although @entity5 occurs earlier in @entity1 than @entity1 , the risk of females tends to be similar to that of males.
