Unbeknownst to most otolaryngologists, there is quite a range of oral manifestations which commonly manifest in the context of inflammatory bowel disease. As providers who will encounter such patients in consultation it is beneficial to be aware of that association. Lip swelling (granulomatous cheilitis) is just one such presentation, which is often otherwise mistaken for angioneurotic edema and can lead to unwarranted testing and misdirected treatment. We present such a case to highlight the educational value of this patient encounter.
大多数耳鼻喉科医生都不知道,在炎症性肠病的背景下,口腔表现的范围相当广泛。作为在会诊中会遇到此类患者的医生,了解这种关联是有益的。唇部肿胀(肉芽肿性唇炎)就是这样一种表现,这种情况常常被误诊为血管神经性水肿,并导致不必要的检查和治疗方向错误。我们提出这样一个病例,旨在强调这种患者就诊的教育价值。
