This case report describes an uncommon manifestation of histoplasmosis on the soft palate. The importance of appropriate treatment and follow-up in complex cases is emphasized, especially in patients with chronic diseases. Oral lesions may occur as multiple, granular and painful ulcers, as well as verrucous growths. Lesions may also be deep, with infiltrative edges and erythematous or with white areas, accompanied by local lymphadenopathy, resembling a carcinoma on clinical examination. In this sense, a fast and accurate diagnosis is essential to the success of treatment of oral histoplasmosis.
本病例报告描述了组织胞浆菌病在软腭上的一种罕见表现。强调了在复杂病例中进行适当治疗和随访的重要性,尤其是在患有慢性疾病的患者中。口腔病变可能表现为多发性、颗粒状且疼痛的溃疡,以及疣状增生。病变也可能较深,边缘浸润,伴有红斑或白色区域,并伴有局部淋巴结肿大,在临床检查中类似癌。从这个意义上讲,快速准确的诊断对于口腔组织胞浆菌病的治疗成功至关重要。
