Fungiform papillae of the tongue vary in their appearance. It is not rare for them to be pigmented in black subjects, but this is less common in Asians. We report a case of pigmented fungiform papillae in a 65-year-old Vietnamese man. The patient also had recurrent aphthous ulceration and hepatitis C. Pigmentation affected all fungiform papillae and was asymptomatic. Macrocytosis was noted on full blood examination, while liver function tests were normal. The pigmentation of the fungiform papillae remained stable.
舌的菌状乳头外观各异。在黑人中，它们出现色素沉着并不罕见，但在亚洲人中则较少见。我们报告一例65岁越南男性的菌状乳头色素沉着病例。该患者还患有复发性阿弗他溃疡和丙型肝炎。色素沉着累及所有菌状乳头，且无症状。全血细胞检查发现有大红细胞症，而肝功能检查正常。菌状乳头的色素沉着保持稳定。
