    Journal: East Afr Med J; 1993 Sep; 70(9):595-6. PubMed ID: 8181446.
    Abstract:
    We report the first three patients diagnosed with focal epithelial hyperplasia (Heck's disease) in Kenya. Clinically they presented as focal or diffuse papillomatous lesions in the oral mucosa. Histopathological features rule out other similar lesions inter alia multiple fibro-epithelial and viral warts.
