 AB    Four children with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome and aphthous oral
       ulcers with severe odynophagia were treated with a short oral course of
       prednisone. The lesions resolved completely with no adverse effects. We
       recommend considering a short course of prednisone for relief of
       symptoms in these patients.
