The Melkersson-Rosenthal syndrome is a rare disease consisting of orofacial swellings, facial nerve palsy and plicated tongue. The etiology is unknown. On histopathological examination a characteristic granulomatous inflammation is found. A case of this syndrome in a young white female with seronegative oligoarthritis is described and the possible relationship between the two diseases is discussed on the basis of the literature.
