Abstract
Relevance. The present review combines studies carried out by Russian and international scientists on the causes of oral mucosa and vermilion lesions arising in association with COVID-19, its complications and during treatment of coronaviral infection.
Aim. The study aimed to analyze the causes and clinical picture of oral mucosa and vermilion lesions related to COVID-19, its complications and arising during coronavirus infection treatment.
Materials and methods. The literature data in the databases: PubMed, Scopus, eLibrary, and Google Scholar, were analytically reviewed. The study included articles in Russian and English and searched the articles published from 01.01.2019 to 01.01.2022.
Results and discussion. According to the literature, the loss of smell and taste are the early manifestations of COVID-19, caused by the direct virus impact on the mucous membrane of the tongue and oral cavity. The information is now available about secondary infections and various lesions of the oral muc osa and vermilion zone, ranging from ulcers to destructive fungal infections. These lesions can be classified as secondary complications of COVID-19 or as complications related to drug therapy.
Conclusion. The review will help develop an algorithm for timely diagnosis, routing and treatment of oral mucosal lesions associated with SARS-CoV-2 depending on their cause of origin to prevent the development of more severe pathology and chronification of the process.
