Question 38 (part 2) · LDEK · Periodontal and oral mucosal diseases in children

Infection caused by Coxsackie A group virus, where prodromal symptoms occur, cluster of 4 to 5 vesicles on the palate, palatal arches and pharynx, and also on hands and feet. This description refers to:

  1. A. herpangina.
  2. B. infectious mononucleosis.
  3. C. chickenpox.
  4. D. primary herpetic gingivostomatitis.
  5. E. herpes zoster.
Hint

Only one option is caused by Coxsackie A rather than a herpesvirus; choose it even though hand and foot lesions are mentioned.

The answer, the explanation and a note on every option are available once you log in. The account is free: topic tests, a mock exam, mistake review and statistics.
