目的：回顾一系列口腔灼热或疼痛的患者，以阐明相关病症和治疗结果。材料和方法：我们回顾性研究了 1979 年至 1992 年间在三级护理中心遇到的连续 70 名口腔灼热或疼痛的患者，总结了临床和实验室检查结果，并分析了随访数据。结果：研究队列由 56 名女性和 14 名男性组成，平均年龄为 59 岁。他们的口腔灼热或疼痛的平均持续时间为 2.5 年。 37% 的研究对象存在多种导致口腔灼热或疼痛的病因。最常见的相关疾病是精神疾病（30%）、口干症（24%）、地图舌（24%）、营养缺乏（21%）和过敏性接触性口腔炎（13%）。通过针对可疑病因制定治疗方案，72% 的随访患者报告病情有所改善 结论：通过定向调查，可以在大多数口腔灼热或疼痛的患者中找出一个或多个原因。大多数患者可以成功控制这些症状。
Objective: To review a series of patients with a burning or sore mouth for elucidation of associated conditions and treatment outcome,Material and Methods: We retrospectively studied 70 consecutive patients with a burning or sore mouth who were encountered at a tertiary care center between 1979 and 1992, Clinical and laboratory findings were summarized, and follow-up data were analyzed.Results: The study cohort of 56 women and 14 men had a mean age of 59 gears. They had had a burning or sore mouth for a mean duration of 2.5 years. Multiple etiologic factors for the burning or sore mouth were present in 37% of the study subjects. The most frequently associated conditions were psychiatric disease (30%), xerostomia (24%), geographic tongue (24%), nutritional deficiencies (21%), and allergic contact stomatitis (13%). With a treatment course tailored to the suspected causal factor, 72% of the patients who had follow-up reported improvementConclusion: With a directed investigation, one or more causes could be identified in most patients who had a burning or sore mouth. Successful management of these symptoms was possible in a majority of the patients.
