Lichen planus (LP) is a chronic inflammatory mucocutaneous condition which is relatively common in adults but rarely affects children. The present study is a report on an unusual case of ulcerative oral LP involving the dorsum of tongue in a 12-year-old boy. Patient complained of painful oral lesion on the tongue which was burning in nature and obstructing talking and eating spicy foods. On intraoral examination, a white ulcerative lesion on the dorsum of tongue was observed. Diagnosis was made based on clinical examination and histopathological features. We instituted local treatment and patient responded well to the treatment. Although rarely reported in childhood, lichen planus should be considered in a differential diagnosis of hyperkeratotic, reticular, and ulcerative lesions of the oral mucosa in children.

Relevance: red lichen planus refers to a long, protracted disease with a chronic course. There are a lot of root causes, it is quite difficult to differentiate them. Therefore, pharmacotherapy of this pathology is reduced to the appointment of local drugs that have only symptomatic effects that help accelerate the healing of the oral mucosa.Purpose – to study reparative regeneration based on the analysis of clinical and cytological examination on the background of the appointment of various methods of pharmacotherapy.Materials and methods: all patients were divided into two groups using simple randomization: in patients of the first group, betamethasone B was used to treat erosive-ulcerative lesions, which were delivered to the lesion using Tisol, which has conductive transcutaneous activity, using the sandwich technique. The second group of patients used the drug delivery system in the form of a film, which fixed betamethasone B in the lesion area.Results: were evaluated before treatment, on day 7 and 14. The area and intensity of healing of the oral mucosa were determined, a qualitative and quantitative analysis of cytograms was carried out, which characterizes the dynamics of reparative regeneration of erosions and ulcers.Conclusion: based on the obtained clinical and laboratory data, it can be concluded that it is advisable to include betamethasone applications in the pharmacotherapy of patients with erosive and ulcerative forms of lichen planus. However, preference should be given to the method of layer-by-layer application of betamethasone B in combination with Tezol.

Society of Physicians at Kazan University. Rino laryngo otiatric section. Session 2 / VI 1930 Dr. PD Buyev demonstrated a patient with ulcerative lesions of the alveolar process of the left upper jaw, noted the interest of the case in relation to differential diagnosis and spoke in favor of the likelihood of luesa or cholesteatombi of the maxillary sinus in the shown patient. Prof. Trutnevidr Lebedevsky joined the speaker's opinion.

Annotation. Contamination of the oral mucosa ulcers with opportunistic microorganisms aggravates the course of chronic recurrent aphthous stomatitis (HRAC). Topical medicines help to eliminate inflammation rapidly and induce fast epithelization of the mucous membrane defect in patients with HRAC. The aim of the work was to create curative composition recipe for the local therapy at HRAC, resulting to higher effectiveness of antimicrobial therapy and acceleration of healing. 43 patients with HRAC were examined. Samples from the lesions were inoculated blood agar and Sabouraud agar. The conventional methods were used for microorganisms’ identification. The sensitivity of isolated strains to antibiotics and antifungals was determined. Antimicrobial activity of the proposed applicative composition was determined by the well method into agar media. It was established that the surface of patients` lesions on the oral mucosa was most often colonized with associations of Streptococci and Neisseriae, Streptococci and C. albicans. For every third patient, the erosive surface was infected with gram-negative microorganisms, including non-ferments and enterobacteria. Most of the isolated bacteria were highly sensitive to antibacterial compounds. Yeast-like fungi exhibited high resistance to fluconazole, itraconazole, 50% of them were resistant to ketoconazole, and resistance to nystatin were revealed in 81% of isolated strains. The proposed application dosage form containing vinyl, decamethoxin, essential oils of carnation and sea buckthorn had a high antimicrobial activity against isolated strains. Obtained results indicate the feasibility of the applicative composition for treatment of erosive and ulcerative lesions, which are caused by microorganisms, in dental practice.

Lichen planus (LP) is a T-cell-mediated inflammatory dermatosis with an unclear etiology that affects the skin, nails and mucous membranes. The article outlines modern ideas about lichen planus, affecting the vulva. The issues of etiopathogenesis, clinical picture, differential diagnosis of various forms of this dermatosis are considered. The histopathological picture of vulvar LPL is described in detail. Possible complications, including anatomical abnormalities of the vulvar architectonics and the risk of malignant transformation, are considered. Various methods of treatment for this disease, local treatment regimens are presented, an overview of systemic drugs is given, as well as alternative approaches to patient management.

In daily clinical practice, intrascrotal lesion are commonly detected, both by clinical examination either by ultrasound scan. While 95% of testicular lesions are malignant, most paratesticular lesions are benign. Among these, intrascrotal lipomas must be take into account in differential diagnosis. When they originate from scrotal wall, they named “primary scrotal lipoma”. We describe a case of a primary intrascrotal lipoma diagnosed after surgical excision in a young man presented at our Urological Department complaining a painful left scrotal mass.

The broadest application of transmission electron microscopy (EM) in diagnostic medicine is the identification of tumors that cannot be classified by routine light microscopy. EM is useful in the evaluation of approximately 10% of human neoplasms, but the extent of its contribution varies considerably. It may provide a specific diagnosis that can not be reached by other means, but in contrast, the information obtained from ultrastructural study of some 10% of tumors does not significantly add to that available from light microscopy. Most cases fall somewhere between these two extremes: EM may correct a light microscopic diagnosis, or serve to narrow a differential diagnosis by excluding some of the possibilities considered by light microscopy. It is particularly important to correlate the EM findings with data from light microscopy, clinical examination, and other diagnostic procedures.
