Background: Melkersson-Rosenthal syndrome is a rare disorder characterized, in its complete form, by recurrent facial nerve palsy, fissured tongue and oro-facial swelling. Most of the cases present with partial or monosymptomatic forms. The etiology is still unknown, and it is considered a chronic disease with progressive course. Case report: We present a nine-year-old girl with recurrent episodes of peripheral facial nerve palsy. Examination revealed lips swelling, fissured tongue and angular cheilitis. Clinical diagnosis of Melkersson-Rosenthal syndrome was made. Conclusions: We must consider this syndrome in the differential diagnosis in the presence of acute peripheral facial paralysis and/or facial swelling due to its behavior and progressive evolution.

| Abstract (Spanish): |
Antecedentes: El síndrome de Melkersson-Rosenthal es una entidad poco frecuente caracterizada, en su forma completa, por parálisis facial recurrente, lengua fisurada y edema orofacial. La mayoría de los casos se presentan como formas oligosintomáticas y monosintomáticas. Su etiología es aún desconocida y tiene un curso crónico que puede ser progresivo. Caso clínico: Presentamos el caso de una niña de nueve años de edad con episodios recurrentes de parálisis facial periférica. Durante su estudio se observó edema labial, glositis migratoria benigna y queilitis angular, por lo que se formuló el diagnóstico clínico de síndrome de Melkersson- Rosenthal. Conclusiones: Debemos considerar este síndrome dentro del diagnóstico diferencial ante la presencia de parálisis facial periférica recurrente o edema facial, debido a su comportamiento y evolución progresiva.
