Dermatologists and venereologists have been taking an active part in studies of the buccal mucosa involvements since 1953, when a Chair for Skin and Sexually-Transmitted Diseases has been founded at the N. A. Semashko Moscow Medical Stomatological Institute. The head of the Chair, Professor B. M. Pashkov, an authority in this field, has set up an original school of dermatostomatology. One of his disciples, A. L. Mashkilleison, heads the Chair nowadays. The present-day priority trends in the research activities of the Chair are: the immunologic aspects in the pathogenesis of various dermatoses located on the buccal mucosa, immunity disorders, the role of viruses and of genetic factors.
