[Clinical pathological analysis of recurrent oral ulcer and Behçet's syndrome]
1School of Stomatology, Beijing Medical University.
Abstract:
Histopathological features of 53 cases of recurrent oral ulcer (ROU) and 28 cases of Behçet's syndrome (BS) were studied. The findings of light microscopic examinations are as follows: (1) The inflammatory cell reactions in early lesions are characterized by predominant lymphocytes and monocytes which differ from those in later lesions. (2) The vascular lesions are more significant in BS than in ROU. (3) The number of mast cells in the oral lesions of BS is more than that in ROU and controls. (4) Bacteria are observed in 11 specimens stained with HE and multinucleated epithelial giant cells are found in one specimen. It is considered that the lymphomonocytes in epithelial layer may play a role in the destruction of the epithelial cells through autoimmunization.

Few clinical manifestations differentiate gastric ulcers from duodenal ulcers. Distinctions in the location, timing, and pain relief are crucial for healthcare providers in differentiating between gastric and duodenal ulcers during clinical assessments.
Inflammatory Bowel Disease II: Crohn's Disease
Inflammatory bowel disease, commonly known as IBD, refers to a collection of disorders that lead to persistent inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract. The two types of IBD are ulcerative colitis, which impacts the colon, and Crohn's disease, which can involve any part of the gastrointestinal segment.
Crohn's disease
Crohn's disease is a chronic, systemic inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) that predominantly affects the gastrointestinal tract. It is marked by transmural...
