definition

Syndrome characterized by cheilitis granulomatosa, facial palsy and lingua plicata. Not all of these signs are always present or already existing at the start, though. Besides the inflammatory swelling of the lips, the cheeks, eyelids and forehead may be affected in a similar way. The facial nerve paresis is usually unilateral and of the peripheral type. The disease takes an intermittent, chronic course.
