Abstract
AbstractSeven cases of white sponge nevus in seven women of the same family are reported. At birth the patients had lesions consisting of asymptomatic white spongy plaques located on the oral mucosa; in two patients the lesions also involved the vaginal mucosa. The lesions improved after antibiotic treatment. Histology was performed in four cases and an ultrastructural study in one. The findings were consistent with the diagnosis of white sponge nevus in all cases. Differential diagnosis was made with other conditions presenting as white lesions of the oral mucosa.
