AB  - Melkersson-Rosenthal  syndrome  is  the  term  used  when  there  is  cheilitis  (chronic  swelling  of  the  face),  peripheral  facial  palsy,  and  lingua  plicata  (“scrotal”  tongue).  Granulomatous  cheilitis  is  a  chronic  swelling  of  the  lip  caused  by  granulomatous  inflammation.  Miescher  cheilitis  is  the  term  used  when  the  granulomatous  changes  are  confined  to  the  lip.  Miescher  cheilitis  generally  is  regarded  as  a  monosymptomatic  form  of  the  Melkersson-Rosenthal  syndrome,  although  the  possibility  remains  that  they  are  separate  diseases.
