Klepper (Derm. Woch., 1925, no. 39) describes an interesting case of gonorrhoid stomatitis in a hospital nurse with a history of recurrent aphthous stomatitis. 4 days after the usual relapse, the patient began to care for the child suffering from gonoblenorrhea, and after the next 4 days, she had a sudden deterioration of the usual process in the mouth: severe pain while eating, swelling of the tongue, fever, sores near the tip of the tongue, in the corner of the mouth and along the edge of the lower gum, with severe inflammation. Gonococci were found in smears and cultures of ulcer discharge. This case is interesting, as it contradicts the old ideas about the immunity of the oral mucosa of adults in relation to gonorrhoid infection.
