Dr Abhas Kumar, Pushpendra N Renjen, Dr. Dinesh Chaudhari

Abstract :

Melkersson–Rosenthal Syndrome (MRS) is a rare disorder and consists of a triad of recurrent orofacial edema, recurrent facial palsy and fissured tongue. All aspects of the classical triad may not be observed at the same time, as they may appear at different times. The most common symptom is orofacial edema. The etiology and mechanisms of the syndrome have not been fully elucidated. We report a case of 25–year–old male, with history of recurrent left facial palsy. Clinical examinations at presentation revealed classical triad of MRS.
