Thoracic actinomycosis. Dissemination to skin, subcutaneous tissue, and muscle

Bacterial and protozoal infections

The oral cavity is a common site for manifestations of systemic microbial diseases. Oral lesions may be typical of those seen elsewhere on the body, or the lesions may be modified by the local environment. The ease of examination within the oral cavity, however, and any site-specific features facilitates diagnosis of the systemic condition.
