Abstract

Abstract This is a case report of a 27-year-old male who presented with recurrent facial swelling and weakness. The clinical evaluation revealed that the patient had Melkersson-Rosenthal syndrome (MRS), a rare neurological disease characterized by the triad of recurrent facial edema, recurrent facial muscle weakness, and a furrowed or fissured tongue. Accurate data regarding the incidence of MRS is challenging to obtain due to the rarity of the disorder, and early recognition and treatment can potentially reduce the probability of permanent disability.
