The ampullar processes of immune origin include exudative erythema multiforme, pemphigus vulgaris, pemphigoid, lichen planus, lupus erythematosus, herpetiform dermatitis and linear IgA disease. A review is provided of the different etiopathogenic, clinical and therapeutic aspects of pemphigoid disorders among the range of ampullar diseases of the oral cavity. An update is also provided, with a description of the diagnostic criteria and principal techniques employed.
