A case of lingual chondroma is presented, along with the pertinent light and electron microscopy findings. The literature on lingual chondromas has been reviewed, and the pertinent clinical features are discussed and compared with those of other hard lingual tumors, the osteoma and osteochondroma.
Twenty-eight cases of intraoral pemphigus vulgaris are presented. All had histologic confirmation, including twenty-six from intraoral biopsies. Detailed descriptions involving many clinical features are reported and discussed. Pertinent histologic findings are also described.
The ultrastruct of hyaline bodies was examined. Their constant association with elements of squamous epithelium pointed to an epithelial component in their structure. Elements of red blood cells, blood vessels, and endothelium were not evi-ent in these hyaline bodies, thereby negating avascular origin. Due to ultrastrucural limitations, the exact composition of the structures could not be determined.
