Resumen

Una mujer joven y sana se presentó con una lesión en la lengua. Los hallazgos clínicos y dermoscópicos llevaron a un diagnóstico de glositis romboide mediana, confirmado por biopsia.

Área de la Ciencia:

Patología oral
Dermatología
La dermoscopia

Sus antecedentes:

La glositis romboide mediana (GRM) es una enfermedad inflamatoria benigna de la lengua.
Por lo general, se presenta como un parche liso, eritematoso y con forma de romboide en la lengua dorsal.
A menudo asociado con el crecimiento excesivo de Candida.

Objetivo del estudio:

Para presentar un caso de glositis romboide mediana en una mujer joven y sana.
Para resaltar la utilidad de la dermoscopia en el diagnóstico de MRG.
Para confirmar el diagnóstico a través de histopatología.

Principales métodos:

Examen clínico de una placa rojiza en la línea media de la lengua.
La evaluación por dermoscopía revela papilas filiformes atróficas.
Análisis histopatológico para el diagnóstico definitivo.

Principales resultados:

Una paciente de 26 años con una placa en la lengua asintomática.
La dermoscopia mostró las papilas atróficas filiformes características.
La histopatología confirmó la glositis romboide mediana.

Conclusiones:

La glositis romboide mediana puede ocurrir en adultos jóvenes sanos.
La dermoscopia es una valiosa herramienta no invasiva para sospechar MRG.
La histopatología sigue siendo el estándar de oro para confirmar el diagnóstico.

Reticular Dermis

Reticular Dermis

The papillary and reticular dermis are the two layers of the dermis. They are made of connective tissue with fibers of collagen extending from one to the other, making the border between the two somewhat indistinct. The dermal papillae extending into the epidermis belong to the papillary layer, whereas the dense collagen fiber bundles below belong to the reticular layer.
Reticular Layer
Underlying the papillary layer is the much thicker reticular layer, composed of dense, irregular connective...

Rheumatic Heart Disease II: Clinical Manifestations and Diagnostic Studies

The key clinical manifestations of Rheumatic heart disease (RHD) include several distinct cardiac symptoms.Carditis, a hallmark of acute rheumatic fever, involves inflammation of the heart's endocardium, myocardium, and pericardium. Chronic RHD often results from recurrent episodes of carditis. Its symptoms include the following:Murmurs are caused by valvular damage, especially to the mitral and aortic valves. Mitral stenosis or regurgitation is common, with characteristic heart murmurs...

Papillary Dermis

Papillary Dermis

Dermis
The dermis might be considered the "core" of the integumentary system, as distinct from the epidermis and hypodermis. It contains blood and lymph vessels, nerves, and other structures, such as hair follicles and sweat glands. The dermis is made of two layers of connective tissue that comprise an interconnected mesh of elastin and collagenous fibers, produced by fibroblasts.
Papillary Layer
The papillary layer is made of loose, areolar connective tissue, which means the collagen...

Histology of the Small Intestine

Histology of the Small Intestine

The small intestine exhibits a unique histological structure that significantly enhances its function in digestion and nutrient absorption. These structures include circular folds, villi, and various specialized cells that collectively facilitate the digestion of food.
The intestinal lining features transverse folds called circular folds, each housing fingerlike projections known as intestinal villi. These villi are covered by a layer of simple columnar epithelium, also referred to as...

Muscles of the Shoulder

Muscles of the Shoulder

The muscles surrounding the shoulder girdle, including the clavicle and scapula, primarily stabilize the scapula. This stable base allows other muscles to move the humerus effectively. Scapular movements often mirror those of the humerus and extend its range of motion. For instance, raising the arm above the head would not be feasible without simultaneous upward rotation of the scapula.
Anterior Thoracic Muscles
The anterior thoracic muscles include the serratus anterior, subclavius, and...

Endocarditis II: Clinical Features of Infective Endocarditis

Endocarditis can present various clinical features depending on the causative organism and the patient's underlying health conditions. Initially, the clinical features of infective endocarditis develop gradually, presenting with nonspecific symptoms that can be easily mistaken for other illnesses.General SymptomsEarly symptoms of infective endocarditis are fever, chills, weakness, malaise, fatigue, and weight loss. These symptoms reflect the systemic nature of the infection and the body's...
