The aim of this study was to describe oral lesions in a group of patients with COVID-19. We recruited 55 patients, 25 women (45.5%) and 30 men (54.5%), aged between 1 and 89 years with confirmed COVID-19 at different stages of severity. After obtaining informed consent, we examined their mouths and recorded clinical findings. Forty percent of the patients had at least 1 oral lesion. The most common lesions were candidiasis and ulcers (7 patients each); 2 patients had enanthems. Geographic tongue and caviar tongue were also observed. Altered taste, dry mouth, and painful/burning mouth were noted in 60%, 27.3%, and 36.4% of patients, respectively. Oral mucosal alterations and lesions were prevalent in this series of COVID-19 patients. Altered taste and a painful/burning mouth were common symptoms.
本研究的目的是描述一组新冠肺炎患者的口腔病变情况。我们招募了55名患者,其中25名女性(45.5%),30名男性(54.5%),年龄在1至89岁之间,处于不同严重程度阶段的新冠肺炎确诊患者。在获得知情同意后,我们检查了他们的口腔并记录临床发现。40%的患者至少有1处口腔病变。最常见的病变是念珠菌病和溃疡(各7例);2例患者有黏膜疹。还观察到地图舌和鱼子酱舌。分别有60%、27.3%和36.4%的患者出现味觉改变、口干以及口腔疼痛/灼痛。在这组新冠肺炎患者中,口腔黏膜改变和病变很普遍。味觉改变和口腔疼痛/灼痛是常见症状。
