Eosinophilic ulcer of the oral mucosa: a clinicopathological analysis
1Stomatological Hospital, Tianjin Medical University, Tianjin, 300070, P. R. China.
Objective:
To explore the clinical characteristics, histologic features, method of treatment, and possible etiology of eosinophilic ulcer of the oral mucosa.
Method:
Eight cases of eosinophilic ulcer of the oral mucosa were analyzed.
Results:
In all cases, the ulcer site was the tongue. Ulcers were unifocal, had a benign course, and three of patients had a history of EUOM recurrence. Pathological features showed an extensive inflammatory cell infiltration, with predominantly eosinophilic cells throughout the submucosa. All ulcers were treated with either conservative excision or incisional biopsy.
Conclusions:
Eosinophilic ulcer is a rare, self-limiting benign disease that often appears in older adults or children. Its etiology remains obscure and may be associated with traumatic factors. This study provides useful information on clinical and pathological features, diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis, as well as the possible etiology of this disease.

Pathophysiology of Peptic Ulcer Disease: Injurious Factors
In the antrum region, G cells secrete the gastrin hormone that binds to gastrin-cholecystokinin-B (CCK2) receptors on parietal and enterochromaffin-like (ECL) cells in the fundic glands. Simultaneously, the vagus nerve releases acetylcholine, which binds to M3...

Peptic Ulcer Disease I: Introduction
An acute ulcer, marked by superficial erosion and minimal inflammation, swiftly resolves upon identifying and addressing the underlying cause. In contrast, a chronic ulcer persists, potentially eroding through the muscular wall and forming fibrous tissue.
