Acute exacerbation of macroglossia.

We report the case of a large venous malformation of the tongue, preventing the patient from being able to contain it within the oral cavity. The extent of the malformation precluded a complete surgical excision. The immediate problems were; impending airway compromise, inability to speak, eat or drink, severe discomfort due to exposure-induced dryness and an embarrassing spectacle. This case demonstrates that even malformations considered to be incurable may be managed appropriately.

The authors discuss the diagnostic problems in differentiation of such lesions from other small-cell tumors, primary or secondary, that might involve the tongue. Electron microscopic studies were utilized to confirm the diagnosis of histiocytic lymphoma.
