Multiple techniques and biopsy instruments have each been developed with advantages and limitations. Physicians caring for infants and children must be familiar with indications for tissue sampling, timing of the biopsies, and ...

Oral mucositis

Oral Oncology, 2010
Mucosal damage is one of the most common adverse effects of radiotherapy and of cytotoxic therapy for cancer. With prevalence between 10% and 100%, depending of the cytotoxic regimen and patient-associated variables, this morbid condition represents a significant problem in oncology. In this paper we address oral mucositis and discuss its pathobiology,

Mucosal Immunity

Pediatrics, 2003
Food allergy is the manifestation of an abnormal immune response to antigen delivered by the oral route. Normal mucosal immune responses are generally associated with suppression of immunity. A normal mucosal immune response relies heavily on a number of factors: strong physical barriers, luminal digestion of potential antigens, selective antigen ...

Mucosal Melanosis

Dermatologic Clinics, 1988
The labial melanotic macule has an increased number of dendritic melanocytes along the basal layer. Numerous counterparts of the labial melanotic macule occur on the other mucosal and cutaneous surfaces. Most melanoacanthomas of the lip show a similar number of melanocytes along the junctional zone.

Mucosal candidiasis

Infectious Disease Clinics of North America, 2002
This article examines the ecology and epidemiology of gastrointestinal candidiasis, esophageal candidiasis, chronic mucocutaneous candidiasis, urinary tract candidiasis, and vulvovaginal candidiasis. Such issues as pathogenesis and host defenses, clinical manifestations, diagnosis, and treatment are discussed.

Oral mucositis

Anti-Cancer Drugs, 2011
Oral mucositis remains one of the most common and troubling side effects of standard chemoradiation regimens used for the treatment of head and neck cancer. Virtually all patients who receive cumulative radiation doses of more than 30 Gy that includes oral mucosal fields will develop the condition.

Mucosal immunity

Current Opinion in Gastroenterology, 1999
Advances have been made in understanding specialized aspects of acquired mucosal immunity and the importance of cross-talk between host innate and acquired immune responses in host mucosal defense. These advances include elucidation of a molecular basis for the coordinated trafficking and retention of lymphocytes in intestinal sites, new insights into ...
