Abstract
Mucosal soft tissue lesions are fairly common in the pediatric population. However, the precise prevalence is unknown. This is the result of the limited number of studies, the use of various diagnostic criteria in those studies, and the transient nature of commonly encountered lesions in this population. In this section, we seek to familiarize the pediatric pathologist with a sampling of mucosal soft tissue lesions encountered in pediatric patients, highlight key diagnostic features and correlations with systemic diseases should they exist.
期刊介绍:
The Journal covers the spectrum of disorders of early development (including embryology, placentology, and teratology), gestational and perinatal diseases, and all diseases of childhood. Studies may be in any field of experimental, anatomic, or clinical pathology, including molecular pathology. Case reports are published only if they provide new insights into disease mechanisms or new information.
