Pyostomatitis Vegetant: An Important Diagnostic in Oral Diseases (Two Case Reports)

Abstract:
Background and Objectives: Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a term that refers to crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC). Oral manifestations in this disease category precedes the onset of gastrointestinal symptoms. In many patients, intestinal symptoms may be minimal or remain undiagnosed. In this paper, two cases of Pyostomatitis vegetans have been investigated. Case Report: The first case was a 29 year old man who was referred with complaints of diffuse oral lesions. According to the clinical diagnosis and oral lesions of the patient, he was referred to a gastroenterologist with possible diagnosis of ulcerative colitis. The second case was a 28 year old woman with painful gingival lesions who stated that she has been diagnosed with ulcerative colitis since three years ago and has not received appropriate treatment.
