Diagnosis of pemphigus vulgaris localized in the oral cavity is a difficult task for dentists. This is due to a varied clinical picture similar to other erosive lesions, an undulating course, complex differential diagnosis and other factors. Knowledge of the features of the clinical picture of pemphigus vulgaris with long-term non-healing erosions with an adequate course; positive Nikolsky symptom; cytological examination with detection of acantholytic cells; Carrying out immunological methods — positive direct and indirect RIF — all of this helps the dentist to suggest a diagnosis. Pemphigus vulgaris and promptly refer the patient for treatment to a dermatologist.

PURPOSE OF THE REVIEW

Analysis of domestic and foreign literature based on the results of clinical and laboratory studies of pemphigus vulgaris, increasing the clinical literacy of a dentist in the diagnosis of pemphigus vulgaris.

Keywords:

pemphigus vulgaris
non-healing erosions
Nikolsky’s symptom
acantholytic cells
corticosteroid therapy
