Abstract

Intermittent tongue angioedema can be the initial presentation of several disorders including angiotensin-converting-enzyme inhibitor induced angioedema and hereditary angioedema. Persistent angioedema on the other hand, can be associated with amyloidosis, tumors, thyroid disorders and acromegaly. We present a case of intermittent episodes of tongue swelling progressing to macroglossia.
