Abstract:
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.
