“…It has been demonstrated, in the acute phase of CD, that the lingual salivary glands present disorganized parenchyma with alterations in the acini and presence of amastigotes in the acinar and ductular cells, in the interacinar connective tissue and in the acinar lumen 3 . On the other hand, it has already been demonstrated, in the chronic phase of CD, dilation of parotid glands 4 , submandibular glands and sublingual glands 5 . Similarly, a study by our group showed that the lingual salivary glands of patients with chronic CD present a higher number of alterations when compared to non-chagasic patients, such as ductal dilation, inflammatory infiltrate, perineuritis and myositis 6 .…”

The purpose of this study was to evaluate morphologically the tongue of individuals with chronic Chagas disease (CD) in comparison to the non-chagasic ones. Twenty-four protocol cases of autopsies were selected. They were subdivided into CD patients (10 cases) and non-chagasic ones (14 cases). The morphometric analysis was accomplished for the tongue muscle and salivary glands duct lumen area. In three CD patients, perineuritis was found, and two of them showed megaesophagus and megacolon. The intensity of the inflammation in the von Ebner's glands, the tongue muscles, and the salivary glands duct lumen area was significantly higher in the CD patients. We concluded that the CD patients show salivary glands duct dilatation, which probably would have a relation with alterations in the autonomic nervous system. The inflammation found in CD patients is in accordance with that described in comparative studies on the digestive tract and heart. These morphological findings suggest that the histopathological analysis of the tongue associated with other organs, or even in an isolated manner, can add in the diagnosis and pathogenesis of the CD chronic phase.
