Abstract

In most cases, it is difficult to diagnose ulcerative diseases of the mouth, because they have many similar clinical appearance. For the diagnosis of oral ulcerative lesions, the clinician should check a detailed history of the patient and consider the relation with systemic diseases. In this case report, we introduced two patients with erythematous multiforme, phemphigus, lichenoid reaction and aphthous stomatitis as clinical diagnosis. The lesions were improved by medication.

구강내 궤양성 병소는 다양한 원인에 의해 발생하나 그 임상적 소견이 서로 유사하여, 병소의 진단이 쉽지 않다. 구강내 궤양성 병소를 진단할 때 임상가는 환자의 병력을 세밀하게 청취해야 하며, 전신질환과의 관련성을 고려해야 한다. 본 증례에서는 다형홍반, 천포창, 태선양 반응 및 아프타성 구내염으로 임상진단 된 급성 및 만성 구강내 궤양성 병소를 진단하고, 약물치료를 통해 증상의 호전을 보인 예를 보고자 한다.
