A foreign body embedded in the mobile tongue masquerading as a neoplasm

Foreign bodies in a mobile tongue are rarely presented to the laryngologist, because such bodies are commonly lodged superficially and are easily removed by the patients themselves or by general practitioners. Thus, it is rare that a foreign body totally embedded in the mobile part of the tongue presents as an enlarged tongue mass. We have described a 64-year-old female with a 3-month history of an enlarged mass in the anterior right tongue. Physical examination showed a mass located in the anterior right tongue, with intact mucosa and normal color. A benign tongue neoplasm was considered first. However, a fish bone totally embedded in the mobile tongue with granuloma formation was encountered during the incisional biopsy operation. Complete removal of the foreign body with granuloma was achieved under local anesthesia. There was no neuromuscular or neurosensory deficit of the tongue in the follow-up period of 2 years. Although an embedded foreign body in the mobile tongue is a rare condition, it should be considered in the work-up of a patient with an enlarged tongue mass, with or without a history of swallowing a foreign body.

Characteristics of optic disc changes in Taiwanese patients with primary angle-closure glaucoma.

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Primary angle-closure glaucoma (PACG) is the predominant form of glaucoma among Asians. Although numerous studies have been done to describe the characteristic optic disc changes in patients with primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) which is the predominant form of glaucoma among Western populations, few studies have evaluated the optic disc changes in patients with PACG. The aim of this study was to elucidate the characteristic intrapapillary and parapapillary disc changes in PACG in a cross-sectional study and to develop a practical approach to the detection of glaucomatous optic disc changes in PACG by ophthalmoscopic examination. METHODS: A total of 103 eyes in 103 PACG patients were studied. Forty one eyes of 41 age- and sex-matched healthy subjects served as controls. Three glaucoma-trained subspecialists examined stereophotographs of optic discs to evaluate the intrapapillary and parapapillary changes. The differences in PACG and control group eyes were compared. RESULTS: Concentric steep enlargement of the optic disc was found in 99 PACG eyes (96%). Local notching was noted in only 3 eyes, and vertically oval-shaped cupping of the optic disc in only 1 eye. Disc hemorrhage was not detected in any eye. Parapapillary atrophy of the alpha zone involving both temporal and nasal side of the optic disc and parapapillary atrophy of beta zone were significantly more frequent in the PACG group. The presence of an alpha zone or a beta zone simultaneously involving both the temporal and nasal side of the optic disc was associated with more severe optic nerve head damage. CONCLUSIONS: The intrapapillary change in the PACG group eyes reflected the development of cupping in PACG patients with small and compact optic discs. The parapapillary atrophy paralleled the intrapapillary optic disc cupping in eyes of the PACG group.
