Geographic stomatitis mimicking pemphigus
Öz
Oral mucosal diseases are concerns to specialists across multiple disciplines, such as family physicians, dentists, dermatologists, and rhinolaryngologists. Geographic stomatitis is defined as slightly raised, round, erythematous lesions that are restricted by well-defined whitish borders. The etiopathogenesis of this condition is unknown. There is a limited number of geographical stomatitis case in literature and it is thought that the real incidence is higher. Erosive lichen planus, pemphigus vulgaris, aphthous stomatitis, traumatic stomatitis, and contact dermatitis are the differential diagnosis of this condition. When lesions are found only on the tongue, the lesion is defined as geographic tongue. Herein, we present a case of geographic stomatitis, resembling pemphigus vulgaris histologically.
