🗑
'papulokeratotic variant' of transient lingual papillits   diffuse and asymptomatic enlargement of fungiform papillae; most likely frictional hyperkeratosis  
🗑
recurrent apthous stomatitis/ulceration (RAS/RAU)   oral ulcers mediated by CD8 T-cells  
🗑
1. antigenic stimulus 2. immunodysregulation 3. decreased mucosal barrier   3 pathologic mechanisms of apthous stomatitis

🗑
major apthous stomatitis   large ulcers with long healing time and a later onset  
🗑
herpetiform apthous stomatitis   numerous small ulcers like herpes but not on gingiva or systemic symptoms  
🗑
Behcet syndrome   systemic vasculitis with irregular oral ulcers on soft palate, genital ulcers, and ocular problems  
🗑
sarcoidosis   multisystem granulomatous disorder, probably autoimmune; lungs and lymphoid tissues are most affected -oral involvement of mass or papules is seen first in 2/3 of patients  
🗑
Heerfordt syndrome   acute form of sarcoidosis; parotid gland enlargement, facial nerve paralysis, uveitis and fever  
🗑
orofacial granulomatosis   variety of clinical presentations that show non-specific granulomatous inflammation; called Melkersson-Rosenthal syndrome when with facial paralysis and fissured tongue  
🗑
Wegener granulomatosis   necrotizing granulomatosis lesions of respiratory tract; effects in kidneys and vasculitis  
🗑
classic/generalized Wegener granulomatosis   fatal kidney involvement after initial respiratory infection  
🗑
limited Wegener granulomatosis   disease stays localized to respiratory tract without renal lesions  
🗑
'superficial' Wegener granulomatosis   only have skin and oral mucosal lesions  
🗑
strawberry gingivitis   early manifestation of Wegener granulomatosis

🗑
anaphylactic stomatitis   IgE mediated erythema and ulceration 24 hours after exposure to drug  
🗑
fixed drug eruptions   reactions that reappear at same site after taking drug  
🗑
lichenoid drug reactions   mucosal changes from systemic drug that mimic lichen planus  
🗑
pemphigus-like drug reactions   mucosal desquamation and bullae formation like pemphigus  
🗑
pemphigoid-like drug reactions   mucosa comes off in sheets and mimics pemphigoid  
🗑

lichenoid contact reaction to dental restorative materials   reaction adjacent to old, corroding amalgam fillings  
🗑
angioedema   diffuse edematous swelling of soft tissue; minor trauma can precipitate reaction  
🗑
IgE-mediated type I hypersensitivity reactions   most common cause of angioedema; mast cells degranulate and histamine is released  
🗑

🗑
angiotensin II receptor blockers   drugs developed to avoid inhibition of bradykinin breakdown and angioedema  
🗑
activation of complement pathway   mechanism of causing angioedema; can be hereditary or acquired  
🗑
type I complement pathway   inherited from decreased {C1 esterase inhibitor} that enhances complement pathway  
🗑
Type II complement pathway   normal C1-INH levels but enzyme does not work  
🗑
acquired type of C1-INH deficiency   can be seen in lymphoproliferative diseases that inhibit C1-INH  
🗑
