title: [Oral "hairy" leukoplakia--clinical early manifestation of HTLV-III infection].
abstract: Oral "hairy" leukoplakia is a new clinical entity and represents an early manifestation of the HTLV-III infection. The white lesions develop rather quickly; they are found principally on the lateral border of the tongue. The lesions are slightly raised and show a corrugated or "hairy" surface. This leukoplakia is associated with both papillomavirus and a herpes-type virus. A case report is presented and the literature discussed.
