Tuberculosis of the oral mucosa was associated with pulmonary tuberculosis in a 38-year-old white man. The patient presented with multiple oral ulcerations with an irregular periphery and a granular vegetative fundus. The oral lesions antedated the findings of primary pulmonary tuberculosis, and the diagnosis was initially established histologically. Through the differential diagnosis of oral ulcerations, the dentist can play a role in the early detection of tuberculosis.
一名38岁白人男性的口腔黏膜结核与肺结核相关。患者出现多个口腔溃疡,周边不规则,底部呈颗粒状赘生物。口腔病变早于原发性肺结核的发现,诊断最初通过组织学确定。通过口腔溃疡的鉴别诊断,牙医可在结核病的早期检测中发挥作用。
