    Study Notes

    Viral Infections

    • Herpes viruses include eight types, all causing primary infections that remain latent, leading to recurrent infections.
    • Herpes Simplex Virus (HSV) consists of HHV 1 (affects above waist) and HHV 2 (affects below waist), with transmission via saliva or lesions.
    • Erythema multiforme can precede HSV recurrence; frequent cases may require antiviral prophylaxis.
    • Herpes gladiatorum affects wrestlers and rugby players through skin abrasions, while herpetic whitlow occurs through self-inoculation.
    • HSV is a leading cause of infectious blindness in the U.S., with special caution for eye autoinoculation.
    • Hand, foot, and mouth disease, caused by coxsackie virus A16, presents with oral lesions, sore throat, and mild fever, often seen in children at daycares.
    • Measles (rubeola) has a 10-12 day incubation, initiating with fever and followed by a distinctive rash and Koplik spots in the mouth.
    • Rubella presents as mild illness, but congenital rubella syndrome poses serious risks, particularly to the fetus during pregnancy.
    • Systemic effects of lead intoxication include ulcerative stomatitis and a characteristic bluish gingival line, indicating lead poisoning.
    • Smoker's melanosis correlates with heavy smoking, causing darkened patches primarily on the anterior labial mucosa.
    • Contact stomatitis from cinnamon shows acute red, ulcerated lesions, with chronic forms presenting as white plaques; symptoms improve upon discontinuation.

    Epithelial Pathology

    • Oral squamous papilloma is a benign growth linked to HPV, presenting as soft, painless, pedunculated lesions with a "cauliflower" appearance.
    • Over 150 HPV subtypes exist, but HPV 2, 6, and 11 account for half of oral papillomas, primarily affecting the tongue and soft palate.
    • Condyloma acuminatum, also known as venereal warts, can appear in the mouth and is characterized by large, clustered, fleshy lesions.
    • HPV types 6, 11, 16, and 18 can cause cancer, and these warts usually develop at sites of sexual contact, being larger and more infective than papillomas.
