title: [Melkersson-Rosenthal syndrome. Current data and a report of a case].
abstract: The author reviews recent data from the literature in the light of a case of Melkersson-Rosenthal syndrome. It would appear that the triad (plicated tongue, macrocheilia and facial paralysis) forming the syndrome may be accompanied by other bucco-facial oedematous manifestations. The etiology remains unknown and treatment is symptomatic based upon the aesthetic and symptomatic requirements of each patient.
