Mucocutaneous paracoccidioidomycosis – http://id.who.int/icd/entity/1567183496

Mucous membrane involvement occurs in 50% of patients with acute pulmonary paracoccidioidomycosis, resulting in dysphagia, dysphonia, and granulomatous plaques affecting the lips and perioral skin. Gingival involvement may lead to tooth loss. Oral lesions may be associated with nasal and pharyngeal ulcers and with mandibular or cervical lymph node enlargement.
