Background: Nevic corpuscle (NC), a stacked lamellar structure reminiscent of Meissner corpuscle, is frequently observed in dermal melanocytic nevi. Although the heading 'neurotized' is classically used for these nevi, the exact neural nature of NC has been a topic of considerable debate. Neurotized nevi have received little attention in the dental literature, and there was no information on NC in oral melanocytic nevi.

Context: Allergic mucin, a lamellated collection of inspissated inflammatory debris, has been a hallmark of allergic fungal sinusitis. While its identification is a clue for pathologists to search for fungi, and directs clinicians toward specific therapy and follow-up, recent reports describe cases with allergic mucin but without concomitant fungus. The absence of such organisms in otherwise typical allergic mucin brings into question the role of fungi in allergic fungal sinusitis.

Although it is the sine qua non for alopecia mucinosa as a disease sui generis, it may occur in a variety of unrelated conditions, which may be inflammatory, hamartomatous, hyperplastic, or neoplastic. Follicular mucinosis is rare in plaque and nodular lesions of mycosis fungoides, but when it occurs, the malignant lymphoma is not related to the condition known as alopecia mucinosa.

Salivary calculi are a common disorder in the submandibular gland duct system, but the etiology and pathogenesis of the concrements remain unclear. Ten submandibular gland calculi were examined in a scanning electron microscope after critical-point drying, fracturing, and gold coating. The surface of the calculi was built up of numerous knobs covered by a smooth and occasionally filamentous substance, probably of mucinous origin.
