Benign migratory glossitis, or geographic tongue, is usually an asymptomatic inflammatory disorder of unknown etiology that affects the epithelium of the tongue. Local loss of filiform papillae leads to ulcer-like lesions that rapidly change the color and size. Histopathologic findings parallel the clinical appearance, and may have a psoriasiform pattern. The disorder is characterized by exacerbations and remissions. In most cases, patients do not require treatment other than reassurance about the benign nature of the disorder.
良性游走性舌炎，即地图舌，通常是一种病因不明的无症状炎症性疾病，累及舌上皮。丝状乳头局部缺失导致类似溃疡的病变，其颜色和大小迅速改变。组织病理学表现与临床表现相似，可能呈银屑病样模式。该疾病的特点是病情有加重和缓解。在大多数情况下，患者除了被告知该疾病的良性性质外，无需其他治疗。
