a type of recurrent aphthous stomatitis? or something different
editI would have thought major aphthous ulceration refered to the major type of RAS ... on the aphthous ulcer page. From the description in the article however, "Major aphthous ulcer" is a nodular rather than ulcerative, so it sounds like something different... lesion (talk) 09:11, 27 December 2012 (UTC)
- After further study of this topic, a major aphthous ulcer is a type of aphthous stomatitis, which used to be termed "Periadenitis mucosa necrotica recurrens". This subtype is already discussed in much greater depth on the main aphthous stomatitis page. Furthermore, I think the description of a nodular lesion is not supported by any other source that I have read on the subject. Therefore redirecting this page to aphthous stomatitis#Major aphthous ulceration. Lesion (talk) 08:58, 25 April 2013 (UTC)
