“…As a characteristic, these areas vary widely in appearance, size, number, location, due to the healing of one edge and proliferation of another; they frequently disappear, recur and coalesce in variable proportions, so that the lesions appear to migrate. 8 , 9 The increased prevalence of BMG among psoriatic patients and similar microscopic characteristics, support the idea that PS and BMG are associated conditions. 10 - 12 This association was reinforced by the determination of a genetic marker, the antigen HLA-Cw6, common for both PS and BMG, suggesting that these conditions could share the same genetic basis.…”

BackgroundAn oral condition associated to psoriasis is benign migratory glossitis. The review of the literature does not show any publication about heritability in both soriasis and benign migratory glossitis and prevalence of psoriasis in the Brazilian population.ObjectiveThis research was carried out in order to determine the prevalence of psoriasis and benign migratory glossitis in the Brazilian population from a Brazilian sample, as well as the heritability in these conditions.MethodsSix thousand patients were studied from the records of the outpatient dermatology department. The sample had 129 patients with cutaneous psoriasis, 399 with benign migratory glossitis without psoriasis and a control group with 5,472 patients. After data collection, the statistical analysis was made using Woolf, Chi-square and Falconer tests.ResultsThe prevalence of psoriasis was 2.15% and the benign migratory glossitis was 7.0%. The prevalence of benign migratory glossitis in the psoriasis group was high (16.3%), and that was statistically significant. Family history in the psoriasis group was 38% for the condition itself and 2,75% for benign migratory glossitis and in the benign migratory glossitis group was 17.54% for the condition itself and 1.5% for psoriasis. The study of heritability was 38.8% for psoriasis and 36.6% for benign migratory glossitis, both with medium heritability.Study limitationsThis study was only in the state of São Paulo.ConclusionThis is the first publication that quantifies how much of these conditions have a genetic background and how important the environmental factors are in triggering them.

GT is a symptomatic lesion with a thick halo. In contrast, psoriatic patients are frequently asymptomatic and exhibit severe lesions with greater loss of papillae that are associated with severe FT. The present study is the first to demonstrate clinical differences in the GT of patients with and without psoriasis, suggesting that some GT cases may represent true oral psoriasis and some cases may represent only GT.
