“…The Melkersson-Rosenthal syndrome is a rare neuro-muco-cutaneous syndrome, affecting more frequently young adults and women [13], which is characterized by recurrent facial swelling, recurrent facial paralysis, and fissured tongue. It can be accompanied by other symptoms or illness such as dental (periodontal disease [1]), digestive (abdominal pain, Crohn's disease [5]), ophthalmic (uveitis, keratitis, blepharitis [4]) or sensitive disorders (neurovegetative disorder, trigeminal neuralgia, paresthesia [2], dysgeusia [14]), and headache [1,2,4]. Geographical tong seems to be frequently associated with the Melkersson-Rosenthal syndrome [2], as it was present in this case.…”
