Melkersson-Rosenthal syndrome (MRS) is a rare neurological condition that includes a triad of symptoms including recurring facial paralysis, orofacial swelling, and fissured tongue. The diagnosis and treatment of this syndrome is difficult since the classic triad is rarely possible to see in its complete form. The etiology of MRS is unknown, but it is thought to be caused by various factors such as infections, genetic predisposition, immune deficiency, food intolerance, and stress. This case report presents a 22- year-old male patient with classical triad of MRS.
梅尔克森-罗森塔尔综合征(MRS)是一种罕见的神经系统疾病,其症状三联征包括复发性面瘫、口面部肿胀和沟纹舌。由于经典三联征很少以完整形式出现,该综合征的诊断和治疗颇具难度。MRS的病因尚不清楚,但据认为是由多种因素引起的,如感染、遗传易感性、免疫缺陷、食物不耐受和压力。本病例报告介绍了一名患有经典MRS三联征的22岁男性患者。
