Black hairy tongue (BHT) is a self-limiting disorder characterized by abnormal hypertrophy and elongation of filiform papillae on the surface of the tongue. The exact mechanism of drug-induced BHT is unknown. Several factors have been implicated and included smoking or chewing tobacco, drinking alcohol, poor oral hygiene and antibiotics such as tetracyclines and penicillins. We report a quite uncommon case of Linezolid-induced BHT in a patient with a long-lasting history of chest wall infection.
黑毛舌是一种自限性疾病，其特征为舌表面丝状乳头异常肥大和伸长。药物性黑毛舌的确切机制尚不清楚。有几个因素与之相关，包括吸烟或咀嚼烟草、饮酒、口腔卫生差以及四环素和青霉素等抗生素。我们报告了一例相当罕见的由利奈唑胺引起的黑毛舌病例，该患者有长期胸壁感染病史。
