This document discusses various developmental disturbances that can affect the tongue, including microglossia (small tongue), macroglossia (large tongue), ankyloglossia (tongue tie), cleft tongue, fissured tongue, median rhomboid glossitis (reddish patch on dorsal tongue), benign migratory glossitis (geographic tongue), hairy tongue, lingual varices (dilated veins on tongue), and lingual thyroid nodule (thyroid tissue on tongue). Many of these conditions can cause difficulties with speech, swallowing, or irritation of the tongue. Treatment may include surgery, antifungal medications, or thyroid hormone supplements.
Odontogenic keratocyst (OKC) is the cyst arising from the cell rests of dental lamina. It can occur anywhere in the jaw, but commonly seen in the posterior part of the mandible. Radiographically, most OKCs are unilocular when presented at the periapex and can be mistaken for radicular or lateral periodontal cyst.

New Directions in Targeted Therapeutic Approaches for Older Adults With Mantl...i3 Health
i3 Health is pleased to make the speaker slides from this activity available for use as a non-accredited self-study or teaching resource.
This slide deck presented by Dr. Kami Maddocks, Professor-Clinical in the Division of Hematology and
Associate Division Director for Ambulatory Operations
The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center, will provide insight into new directions in targeted therapeutic approaches for older adults with mantle cell lymphoma.
STATEMENT OF NEED
Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a rare, aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) accounting for 5% to 7% of all lymphomas. Its prognosis ranges from indolent disease that does not require treatment for years to very aggressive disease, which is associated with poor survival (Silkenstedt et al, 2021). Typically, MCL is diagnosed at advanced stage and in older patients who cannot tolerate intensive therapy (NCCN, 2022). Although recent advances have slightly increased remission rates, recurrence and relapse remain very common, leading to a median overall survival between 3 and 6 years (LLS, 2021). Though there are several effective options, progress is still needed towards establishing an accepted frontline approach for MCL (Castellino et al, 2022). Treatment selection and management of MCL are complicated by the heterogeneity of prognosis, advanced age and comorbidities of patients, and lack of an established standard approach for treatment, making it vital that clinicians be familiar with the latest research and advances in this area. In this activity chaired by Michael Wang, MD, Professor in the Department of Lymphoma & Myeloma at MD Anderson Cancer Center, expert faculty will discuss prognostic factors informing treatment, the promising results of recent trials in new therapeutic approaches, and the implications of treatment resistance in therapeutic selection for MCL.
Target Audience
Hematology/oncology fellows, attending faculty, and other health care professionals involved in the treatment of patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL).
Learning Objectives
1.) Identify clinical and biological prognostic factors that can guide treatment decision making for older adults with MCL
2.) Evaluate emerging data on targeted therapeutic approaches for treatment-naive and relapsed/refractory MCL and their applicability to older adults
3.) Assess mechanisms of resistance to targeted therapies for MCL and their implications for treatment selection

RESULTS: Overall life span (LS) was 2252.1±1742.5 days and cumulative 5-year survival (5YS) reached 73.2%, 10 years – 64.8%, 20 years – 42.5%. 513 LCP lived more than 5 years (LS=3124.6±1525.6 days), 148 LCP – more than 10 years (LS=5054.4±1504.1 days).199 LCP died because of LC (LS=562.7±374.5 days). 5YS of LCP after bi/lobectomies was significantly superior in comparison with LCP after pneumonectomies (78.1% vs.63.7%, P=0.00001 by log-rank test). AT significantly improved 5YS (66.3% vs. 34.8%) (P=0.00000 by log-rank test) only for LCP with N1-2. Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: phase transition (PT) early-invasive LC in terms of synergetics, PT N0—N12, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells- CC and blood cells subpopulations), G1-3, histology, glucose, AT, blood cell circuit, prothrombin index, heparin tolerance, recalcification time (P=0.000-0.038). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and PT early-invasive LC (rank=1), PT N0—N12 (rank=2), thrombocytes/CC (3), erythrocytes/CC (4), eosinophils/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), segmented neutrophils/CC (8), stick neutrophils/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10); leucocytes/CC (11). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (area under ROC curve=1.0; error=0.0).
CONCLUSIONS: 5YS of LCP after radical procedures significantly depended on: 1) PT early-invasive cancer; 2) PT N0--N12; 3) cell ratio factors; 4) blood cell circuit; 5) biochemical factors; 6) hemostasis system; 7) AT; 8) LC characteristics; 9) LC cell dynamics; 10) surgery type: lobectomy/pneumonectomy; 11) anthropometric data. Optimal diagnosis and treatment strategies for LC are: 1) screening and early detection of LC; 2) availability of experienced thoracic surgeons because of complexity of radical procedures; 3) aggressive en block surgery and adequate lymph node dissection for completeness; 4) precise prediction; 5) adjuvant chemoimmunoradiotherapy for LCP with unfavorable prognosis.
3. MICROGLOSSIA
It is a rare congenital anomaly manifested by the
presence of Rudimentary or small tongue
The condition when tongue being completely
absent is known as Aglossia
Patient finds difficulties in eating and swallowing
CLASSIFICATION
True microglossia
Relative microglossia
4. MACROGLOSSIA
It is a condition when patient have an enlarged tongue
True macroglossia and pseudomacroglossia
Pseudomacroglossia includes any of the following
conditions, which force the tongue to sit in an abnormal
position:
habitual posturing of the tongue,
enlarged tonsils/adenoids,
low palate and decreased oral cavity volume displacing
tongue,
severe mandibular deficiency( retrognathism),
neoplasms displacing tongue,
hypotonia of the tongue.
5. True macroglossia can be congenital or acquired
CAUSES FOR CONGENITAL MACROGLOSSIA
over development of the musculature
Down syndrome
Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome
13. ANKYLOGLOSSIA
It can be defined as a developmental condition
characterized by fixation of tongue to the floor of the
mouth, causing restricted movement
It can be either complete ankyloglossia or partial
ankyloglossia (tongue tie)
Complete ankyloglossia occurs as a result of
fusion between the tongue and the floor of the
mouth
Partial ankyloglossia occurs as a result of short
lingual frenum or due to a frenum which attaches
too near to the tip of the tongue
14. CLINICAL FEATURES
speech disorders
deformities in occlusion
Difficulties in swallowing
TREATMENT
Partial ankyloglossia are self
corrective
Complete ankyloglossia can be
surgically treated by frenulectomy
15. CLASS TEST – 24-03-2018
Topics- short notes and short essays
Developmental disturbances affecting-
Lip
Palate
Jaw
Gingiva
Salivary gland
Tongue
16. CLEFT TONGUE
Complete cleft tongue occurs due to lack of
merging of lateral lingual swellings.
Partial cleft tongue occurs due to incomplete
merging and failure of groove obliteration by
underlying mesenchymal proliferation
partially cleft tongue occurs more common and is
manifested as deep groove in the midline of dorsal
surface
food debris and microorganisms collect in base of cleft
and cause irritation
17. FISSURED TONGUE/
SCROTAL TONGUE
clinically - numerous small grooves on dorsal surface
radiating out from central groove along the midline
of tongue
often extends to the lateral borders of the tongue and
form lobules
ETIOLOGY
It also occurs as a sequel to geographic tongue
Hereditary factors
18. Clinical Features
Grooves / furrows – 2-6mm
Asymptomatic / mild burning sensation rarely
Melkerson Rosenthal syndrome-
triad of fissured tongue, Chelitis granulomatosa (swelling of
face & lips), facial paralysis (VII nerve- Bell palsy)
The lesions are ususally
asymptomatic unless debris is
entrapped within the fissure and
causes irritation
19. MEDIAN RHOMBOID GLOSSITIS
central papillary atrophy of the tongue /
posterior lingual papillary atrophy
It is an asymptomatic elongated erythematous patch of
atrophic mucosa on the mid dorsal surface of the
tongue.
20. ETIOLOGY
It has been described as a congenital abnormality of
tongue due to failure of tuberculum impar to retract before
fusion of lateral halves of tongue so that structure devoid
of papillae is interpose between them.
It is a focal area of susceptibility to chronic infections by
candida albicans
21. CLINICAL FEATURES
Lesion appears Ovoid, diamond, rhomboid shaped
reddish patch on dorsal surface of tongue immediately
anterior to circumvallate papillae.
it appears as a flat or slightly elevated area and stands out
distinctly from rest of tongue because it has no filiform
papillae
Seen mostly in females in a ratio 3:1 when compared with
males
Kissing lesions are seen (midline soft palate erythema in
the area of contact with tongue)
22. H/P:
atrophic stratified squamous epithelium; occasionally
pseudoepitheliomatous hyperplasia, presence of
fungal hyphae, loss of papillae, elongated rete ridges
and lymphocytic infiltration.
TREATMENT
antifungal agents-amphotericin B or nystatin
23. BENIGN MIGRATORY
GLOSSITIS
Geographic tongue,
erythema migrans,
wandering rash of
tongue
ETIOLOGY
The exact etiology remains
unknown.
It may be genetic.
However many believe that
emotional stress may
precipitate this condition
24. CLINICAL FEATURES
The lesion occurs in about 1 to 3 % of population
Females are affected more frequently than males by a 2:1
ratio
seen on the anterior two third of the dorsal tongue
mucosa
characterized by multiple,
well demarcated, erythematous,
depapillated patches, typically
surrounded by a slightly elevated
yellow white scalloped border
and usually restricted to the
dorsum of the tongue.
25. H/P:
hyperparakeratosis, spongiosis, acanthosis, elongated
rete ridges
Red areas- keratin desquamated, neutrophils and
lymphocytes in epithelium
Monro’s abscess (micro abscess in the keratin and
spinous layer)
TREATMENT
no specific treatment
heavy doses of vitamins and topical steroids
26. HAIRY TONGUE
BLACK HAIRY TONGUE, LINGUA NIGRA,
LINGUA VILLOSA
characterized by marked accumulation of keratin on
filiform papillae of the dorsal surface resulting in a hair like
appearance
27. ETIOLOGY
Chronic smokers
microorganisms such as candida albicans
Systemic disturbances like anemia, gastric upset
Oral use of certain drugs like sodium perborate,
sodium peroxide and antibiotics such as penicillin
Extensive x-ray radiation
28. CLINICAL FEATURES
formation of a pigmented thick matted layer on the tongue
surface, heavily coated with bacteria and fungi
Hair like appearence
Halitosis
Irritation of tongue due to accumulation of food debris
Candidal over growth may cause
glossopyrosis ( burning tongue)
29. LINGUAL VARICES
It is a dilated , tortuous vein which is often subjected to
increased hydrostatic pressure but is poorly supported
by surrounding tissue
30. CLINICAL FEATURES
Varices usually involves the lingual ranine viens
involved veins appear red or purple shotlike clusters
of vessels on the ventral surface and lateral borders of
tongue as well as in the floor of the mouth
Presence of lingual varices before the ages of 50
indicates premature ageing
Treatment
no specific treatment
31. LINGUAL THYROID
NODULE
follicles of thyroid tissue are
found in the substance of the
tongue.
ETIOLOGY
It occurs when thyroid anlage that failed to migrate to
its predestined position or from anlage remnants that
became detached and were left behind.
(the rudimentary basis of a particular organ or other part,
especially in an embryo.)
32. CLINICAL FEATURES
appears as a nodular mass in or near
the base of tongue just posterior to
foramen caecum.
Deeply situated and have a smooth surface
The size varies from 2 – 3 cm
dysphagia, dyspnea, dysphonia
or fullnes of throat
