Lipoid proteinosis is a sporadic congenital metabolic disorder which is characterized by deposition of hyaline material in dermis, submucosal connective tissue, and various internal organs. It has an extremely low prevalence rate with less than 300 cases reported so far. This progressive disease has a vast spectrum of manifestations ranging from asymptomatic lesions to fatal seizures and respiratory obstruction making timely diagnosis of this rare disorder an imperative task for oral health care practitioners. We report a case of characteristic oral manifestations of lipoid proteinosis in a 28-year-old male patient along with a review of relevant prevailing literature.
类脂蛋白沉积症是一种散发性先天性代谢紊乱疾病，其特征是透明物质沉积于真皮、黏膜下结缔组织及各种内脏器官。该病患病率极低，迄今为止报告的病例不足300例。这种进行性疾病有广泛的表现，从无症状病变到致命性癫痫发作和呼吸梗阻，因此及时诊断这种罕见疾病对口腔保健从业者来说是一项紧迫任务。我们报告一例28岁男性患者类脂蛋白沉积症的典型口腔表现，并对相关现有文献进行综述。
