[The study of microbiota in patients with bullous lesions of the oral mucosa].

The Aim Of The Study: The study by the method of tissue polymerase chain reaction of the species composition of the microbiota of lesions of the oral mucosa in patients with bullous lesions.

Material And Methods: Biopsy specimens of the oral mucosa of 51 patients were studied by the polymerase chain reaction method, of which 14 patients with pemphigus vulgaris, 17 patients with pemphigoid bullosa, and 20 patients with the bullous form of ruber lichen planus. 4 types of microorganisms have been identified - Fusobacterium, Streptococcus pneumoniae, Candida albicans, Ureaplasma spp. and viruses - Human Papillomavirus 16, Epstein-Barr virus and Citomegalovirus.

Results: In the study of the microbiota of bullous lesions, associations of microorganisms and viruses were established in a significant number of cases. Associations of Str.pneumoniae and C. albicans were quite common in patients with pemphigus vulgaris in 26.3%, pemphigoid bullosa in 20.0%, and in patients with the bullous form of ruber lichen planus in 14.3% of cases. In patients with pemphigus vulgaris, the association of Str.pneumoniae, C. albicans and EBV was noted in 31.6% of cases. In patients with the bullous form of ruber lichen planus in a high percentage of cases (28.6%), the associations of Str. pneumoniae, EBV and CMV.

Conclusion: Identification at earlier stages of management of patients with bullous lesions Str. pneumoniae, Candida albicans, and Fusobacterium associated with herpes viruses should be regarded as one of the triggering mechanisms of an autoimmune conflict, which subsequently causes a specific clinical picture of these diseases.
