Abstract
Inflammatory mucocutaneous conditions that affect the oral cavity are wide ranging with overlapping clinical and histological features. Clinically these can present with a range of appearances including lace to plaque like patches to erosive and ulcerative conditions. Many of these conditions are associated with systemic affects including gastrointestinal, ocular and dermatological. Early recognition is essential to ensure optimal patient care and appropriate referral to other specialists. This review will concentrate on lichenoid mucositis including lichen planus and erythema multiforme, the vesiculo-bullous conditions pemphigus and pemphigoid and the more common granulomatous conditions that present in the oral cavity.
期刊介绍:
This monthly review journal aims to provide the practising diagnostic pathologist and trainee pathologist with up-to-date reviews on histopathology and cytology and related technical advances. Each issue contains invited articles on a variety of topics from experts in the field and includes a mini-symposium exploring one subject in greater depth. Articles consist of system-based, disease-based reviews and advances in technology. They update the readers on day-to-day diagnostic work and keep them informed of important new developments. An additional feature is the short section devoted to hypotheses; these have been refereed. There is also a correspondence section.
