“…Diagnostic procedures used are incisional biopsy, punch biopsy, excisional biopsy, excision, debridement, abscess drainage, FNAC, swab from discharge and radiologic tests (MRI or CT). An antibiotic regime is the standard line of treatment, especially penicillin, but sclerotherapy and debridement, chirurgical incision and drainage, and excision were experimented 9,11,12,14,22 .

“Lingual actinomycosis” is an uncommon, suppurative inflammation of lingual mucosa, caused by Actinomyces. Infectious oral lesions can mimic benign or malignant neoplasms and fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) is a simple, minimally invasive procedure for the assessment of patients with such lesions. Here, we describe the case of a 28‐year old patient presented with an asymptomatic, submucosal nodular mass of the tongue. Then, FNAC was performed by an experienced fine needle aspiration (FNA) pathologist (*) in our pathology department and the lesion diagnosed with actinomycosis. We also report a detailed review of cases in the literature, with clinical findings.

“…The differential diagnosis from the anterior lesions of the tongue includes lingual artery false aneurysm, tuberculosis, syphilis, neoplasms, and actinomycosis. 4,15,16 Oral tubercular lesions should particularly be considered in the differential diagnosis of tongue abscess, as the tongue being the most common site for oral involvement by tuberculosis. 5 The lesions from the posterior third must include thyroglossal cyst and lingual tonsil abscess.…”

Despite continuous exposure to trauma, bites, and enormous number of potential pathogens, tongue is relatively resistant to infection. Abscess of tongue although is an extremely rare, but a life-threatening medical condition with little information of its diagnosis and management. Here, we present two cases of tongue abscess in young females, with their clinical presentation, differential diagnoses, and management in detail. This is a first report where tongue abscess is reported in two very young (10 years and less) patients, unlike previous few reports where this entity has been described in adults or oldaged patients. As discussed in both the cases in this report, patients responded remarkably well, without any recurrence.

Summary Introduction:?The tongue abscesses are rare even being frequently in touch with trauma, bites, and foreign bodies. It occurs because of the immunological features of the saliva and some histological and anatomical characteristics of the tongue. This work has as objective report a case of tongue abscess occurred in our job, and do a literature review. Case Report:?Patient of 76 years, male, assisted with complaint of pain when swallowing with progressive evolution for a week, with a significant deterioration over three days. Report history of the surgery, for dental implant in the beginning of the period. In the admission during the oral cavity examination was evident bulging of nearly 2???2 cm in the middle third posterior of the right tongue, painful to palpation. Was opted the hospitalization of the patient. Was required a MRI that showed suggestive lesions of abscess in the base of the tongue in the right side. Was submitted to a clinical treatment with antibiotic therapy and surgical drainage. The patient recovered uneventfully. Discussion:?The clinical manifestation from the tongue abscess can be varied. The diagnosis must be done by clinic history, correlating risk factors associated, physical exam and the confirmatory imaging exams. The etiology and the differential diagnosis must be considered depending of the place of the clinical manifestation. The approach must include the permeability of airway, clinical support, and systemic antibiotic therapy and abscess drainage. Final Considerations:?The abscess of the tongue must go in the differential diagnosis of bulging of the tongue being conducted with the antibiotic therapy and surgical drainage in a daily basis.
