Abstract

Spontaneous, endogenous pain in the tongue (glossodynia) is rare, particularly when this progresses to ulceration and necrosis of the tongue. We report the case of a 74-year-old woman who presented with glossodynia that eventually resulted in necrosis of the tongue. The diminished blood supply was the result of histologically confirmed giant cell arteritis.

摘要

舌部的自发性、内源性疼痛（舌痛症）较为罕见，尤其是当病情发展至舌部溃疡和坏死时。我们报告了一例74岁女性患者，她出现了舌痛症，最终导致舌部坏死。组织学确诊为巨细胞动脉炎，这是导致血供减少的原因。
