Cheilitis Glandularis (CG) is a chronic inflammatory disorder with no specific etiology that affects the minor salivary glands of the lips. The main characteristic of this condition consists of the exit of thick saliva or mucopurulent secretion through the dilated ducts present in the vermilion border of the lip, associated to varying degrees of macrocheilia. In this article we report the case of a male patient, leucoderma, 48 years old, that exhibited actinic cheilitis and glandular cheilitis. We emphasized the clinical management, diagnosis criteria and treatment, taking into consideration that GC is a rare condition and makes a differential diagnosis with other entities that may occur on lips. Although a diagnosis of CG is not difficult, its treatment is a challenge, considering the unknown etiology that hinders the development of more specific and effective treatments.
唇腺炎（CG）是一种慢性炎症性疾病，无特定病因，影响嘴唇的小唾液腺。这种情况的主要特征是通过唇红缘存在的扩张导管排出厚唾液或脓性分泌物，并伴有不同程度的巨唇。在本文中，我们报告了一例 48 岁男性患者的病例，该患者表现为光化性唇炎和腺性唇炎。我们强调了临床管理、诊断标准和治疗，考虑到 CG 是一种罕见的疾病，需要与可能发生在嘴唇上的其他实体进行鉴别诊断。虽然 CG 的诊断并不困难，但由于病因不明，阻碍了更具体和有效的治疗方法的发展，因此其治疗具有挑战性。
