Oral Surg Oral Med Oral Pathol. 1992 Dec;74(6):780-2. doi: 10.1016/0030-4220(92)90408-i.

Abstract

The pigmented purpuric dermatoses are a group of disorders in which there is chronic capillaritis, with pigmented purpuric lesions predominantly on the lower limbs. We report a case with chronic oral lesions that had histologic features most in keeping with the purpuric lichenoid dermatitis of Gougerot and Blum syndrome.
