Linear IgA Bullous Dermatosis
|
D062027 |
[Autoimmune disease characterized by subepidermal blisters and linear deposition of autoantibodies at the dermoepidermal junction.

Lingual Nerve
|
D008036 |
[A sensory branch of the MANDIBULAR NERVE, which is part of the trigeminal (5th cranial) nerve. The lingual nerve carries general afferent fibers from the anterior two-thirds of the tongue, the floor of the mouth, and the mandibular gingivae.
