“…In our study, 45 (47%) patients complained of a burning sensation, and a majority (65%) of the symptomatic cases were in the NPS group, while patients in the PS group were asymptomatic (80%) and unaware of the tongue lesions. Gonzaga reported that such a finding may be associated with cutaneous involvement that caused so much suffering and worry that the patient neglected the oral manifestation …”

“…Geographic tongue (GT) is a chronic, inflammatory condition that affects 4.8% of the world's population . Some researchers believe that this lesion has a multifactorial etiology including psychological factors, allergic conditions, psoriasis, and nutritional deficiencies . Clinically, GT is characterized by an erythematous, atrophic area circumscribed by a yellowish‐white line.…”

GT is a symptomatic lesion with a thick halo. In contrast, psoriatic patients are frequently asymptomatic and exhibit severe lesions with greater loss of papillae that are associated with severe FT. The present study is the first to demonstrate clinical differences in the GT of patients with and without psoriasis, suggesting that some GT cases may represent true oral psoriasis and some cases may represent only GT.

Geographic tongue is a chronic, inflammatory, and immune-mediated oral lesion of unknown etiology. It is characterized by serpiginous white areas around the atrophic mucosa, which alternation between activity, remission and reactivation at various locations gave the names benign migratory glossitis and wandering rash of the tongue. Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory disease with frequent cutaneous involvement and an immunogenetic basis of great importance in clinical practice. The association between geographic tongue and psoriasis has been demonstrated in various studies, based on observation of its fundamental lesions, microscopic similarity between the two conditions and the presence of a common genetic marker, human leukocyte antigen (HLA) HLA-C*06. The difficulty however in accepting the diagnosis of geographic tongue as oral psoriasis is the fact that not all patients with geographic tongue present psoriasis. Some authors believe that the prevalence of geographic tongue would be much greater if psoriatic patients underwent thorough oral examination. This study aimed to develop a literature review performed between 1980 and 2014, in which consultation of theses, dissertations and selected scientific articles were conducted through search in Scielo and Bireme databases, from Medline and Lilacs sources, relating the common characteristics between geographic tongue and psoriasis. We observed that the frequency of oral lesions is relatively common, but to establish a correct diagnosis of oral psoriasis, immunohistochemical and genetic histopathological analyzes are necessary, thus highlighting the importance of oral examination in psoriatic patients and cutaneous examination in patients with geographic tongue.

“…The fissured tongue is an asymptomatic, benign condition characterized by fissures or grooves on dorsal surface of the tongue. Fissured tongue should be interpreted as an end stage of BMG.7 In our patient; BMG was not [4,12,13]. Redman et al [12] investigated the association of emotional stress and BMG in a population of students and found evidence to suggest emotional stress as an etiological factor in BMG.…”

Environmental factors in benign migratory glossitis and psoriasis: Retrospective study of the association of emotional stress and alcohol and tobacco consumption with benign migratory glossitis and cutaneous psoriasis

Abstract: The interactions between PS and environmental factors differ from those between BMG and environmental factors. These differences among interactions may be responsible for different forms of manifestations of these diseases, considering being both the same disease.
