Study Notes
Diseases of Oral Cavity & Esophagus
- Oral Cavity Infections:
- Herpes Simplex Infections:
- Most orofacial herpes caused by HSV-1
- Common, mild cold sores
- Acute herpetic gingivostomatitis (vesicles and ulceration of oral cavity)
- Recurrent herpetic stomatitis
- Apthous Ulcers:
- Common superficial ulcerations of oral mucosa
- Single or multiple, shallow ulcerations
- Heal spontaneously, often recurrent
- More painful than serious
- Glossitis (beefy-red tongue) seen in deficiency states
- Atrophy of papillae and thin mucosa are seen in deficiencies of vitamin B12, iron deficiency
- Oral Candidiasis (Thrush):
- Superficial white patches or fluffy membrane
- Matted organisms within fibrinosuppurative exudate
- Easily detached, reddened underlying surface
- Commonest fungal infection in oral cavity
- Occurs in individuals who are diabetic, neutropenic and immuno-compromised (e.g., HIV)
- Oral Manifestations of Systemic Diseases:
- Hairy Leukoplakia: Seen in immunocompromised patients (esp. HIV) White fluffy thickenings on lateral parts of tongue. Epstein-Barr virus is present in most cases – cause. Infections (Measles, Koplik spots, infectious mononucleosis, diphtheria) and Dermatologic conditions (Lichen planus, pemphigus, erythema multiforme, including Steven-Johnson syndrome)
- Other oral manifestations:
- Hematologic disorders (Pancytopenia, monocytic leukemia, leukemia) -Miscellaneous (melanotic pigmentation, phenytoin ingestion, pregnancy, fibrous enlargement of gingivae called pregnancy tumor, Rendu-Osler-Weber syndrome) -Oral Manifestations of Some Systemic Diseases (oral cavity): Acute pharyngitis and tonsillitis can cause a gray-white exudative membrane, enlargement of lymph nodes (in neck), diphtheria (dirty white, tough, inflammatory membrane over tonsils & retropharynx).
- Oral Manifestations of Some Systemic Diseases: Infections (Measles, Koplik spots, infectious mononucleosis, diphtheria), Dermatologic conditions (Lichen planus, pemphigus, erythema multiforme including Steven-Johnson syndrome), other – Scarlet fever (fiery red tongue with prominent papillae, raspberry tongue, white coated tongue with hyperemic papillae projecting through it – strawberry tongue), Measles (spotty enanthema in oral cavity often precedes rash, ulcerations on buccal mucosa about Stensen's duct produce Koplik spots), Infectious mononucleosis.
- Herpes Simplex Infections:
Tumors and Precancerous Lesions
- Tumors:
- Papillomas, hemangiomas, lymphomas may also occur elsewhere in body, squamous cancer and its precancerous lesions are limited to oral cavity
- Precancerous lesions:
- Leukoplakia:
- White patches or plaques that cannot be scraped off
- Not other diseases (e.g., lichen planus, candidiasis)
- Usually premalignant (3-25%)
- Erythroplakia:
- Red velvety, possibly eroded areas
- Often more serious than leukoplakia (serious usually more ominous)
- In oral cavity, often associated with dysplasia
- Leukoplakia:
Odontogenic Tumors
- A complex group of lesions that may be true neoplasms or hamartomas arising from odontogenic epithelium , ectomesenchyme or both
-Ameloblastoma: Originates from odontogenic epithelium, is commonly cystic, slow-growing, and locally invasive, most cases are benign.
- Odontoma: The most common, arises from epithelium, extensive deposits of enamel and dentin, likely a hamartoma, cured by local excision
Salivary Glands
- Inflammation:
- Sialadenitis (inflammation of salivary glands), Mucocele, Blockage or rupture of salivary glands duct
- Sialolithiasis/sialadenitis:
- Viral (Mumps)
- Bacterial (secondary to ductal obstruction by stones)
- Autoimmune (Sjogren's Syndrome)
- Tumors:
- Benign:
- Pleomorphic adenoma (most common parotid tumour)
- Warthin tumor (Adenolymphoma)
- Malignant:
- Mucoepidermoid carcinoma
- Benign:
