| gangrenous stomatitis | Stomatitis characterised by necrosis of oral tissue. See: noma. (05 Mar 2000) |

| vesicular stomatitis | A vesicular disease of horses, cattle, swine, and occasionally man caused by a vesiculovirus (vesicular stomatitis virus); in horses and cattle the disease usually causes mouth vesicles which, in cattle, cannot be differentiated clinically from those of foot-and-mouth disease. (05 Mar 2000) |
| vesicular stomatitis-indiana virus | The type species of vesiculovirus causing a disease symptomatically similar to foot-and-mouth disease in cattle, horses, and pigs. It may be transmitted to other species including humans, where it causes influenza-like symptoms. (12 Dec 1998) |
| vesicular stomatitis virus | <virology> Rhabdovirus causing the disease soremouth in cattle. Widely used as a laboratory tool especially in studies on the spike glycoprotein as a model for the synthesis, post translational modification and export of membrane proteins. (18 Nov 1997) |
| Vincent's stomatitis | <pathology> An acute or recurrent form of gingivitis of young to middle-aged adults characterised by red and painful gums, fetid breath and gum destruction. Other features may include fever and enlargement of the regional lymph nodes. Pathogenesis of this condition is thought to be secondary to a fusiform bacillus and spirochetal (Treponema vincentii) microorganisms. (27 Sep 1997) |
