    Author: Delplace D, da Costa LM, Goffin L, Wechsler ME, Sass U, André J, Dangoisse C, Song M.
    Journal: J Eur Acad Dermatol Venereol; 2007 Aug; 21(7):969-72. PubMed ID: 17659008.
    Abstract:
    Churg-Strauss Syndrome (CSS) is a relatively rare entity characterized by asthma, transient pulmonary infiltrates, eosinophilia and systemic vasculitis. Oral ulceration is a possible clinical manifestation of some systemic vasculitides, such as Wegener's granulomatosis (WG) or giant cell arteritis, but has never been reported with Churg-Strauss syndrome. We report the first observation of a palatine ulceration in a 15-year-old girl with Churg-Strauss syndrome.
