Feline lymphoplasmacytic gingivitis stomatitis complex is a poorly understood condition. It presents as erythematous, ulcerative lesions of the gingiva, buccal mucosa, lips, palatoglossal folds and the lateral pharyngeal walls. No clear aetiology has yet been discovered but many different causes of the condition have been proposed. These include hypersensitivity to oral antigens, bacterial infections including those caused by ''Porphyromonas'' sp and ''Haemobartonella henselae''. Certain viruses have also been implemented including [[Feline Calicivirus|Feline calicivirus]] (FCV),[[Feline Herpesvirus 1|Feline herpesvirus]] (FHV), [[Feline Immunodeficiency Virus (FIV)|Feline immunodeficiency virus]] (FIV),[[Feline Leukemia Virus (FeLV)|Feline leukaemia virus]] (FeLV) and Feline coronavirus (FCoV).
