Abstract(s)
A doença por COVID-19 é causada pela síndrome respiratória aguda grave coronavírus 2, um vírus de ácido ribonucleico, membro da família Coronaviridae. Esta infeção causa manifestações clínicas como fadiga, febre, tosse seca entre outras. Algumas manifestações orais também foram relatadas em pacientes com COVID-19, como disgeusia que é uma sensação alterada de sabor, úlceras, erupções vesículo-bolhosas, petéquia, eritema e alterações na língua (língua branca, amarela e/ou gordurosa). Recentemente foi descoberto um sintoma raro e menor da infeção SARS-Cov-2 chamada "língua COVID", que é completamente sobreposta noutra patologia: a "língua geográfica". Esta patologia é uma doença inflamatória crónica com uma incidência de 1 a 2% e a sua etiologia não é totalmente compreendida, sendo capaz de ser genética e imunológica e associada à psoríase. A língua geográfica tem áreas irregulares de perda de papilas filiformes na parte posterior da língua que podem variar em tamanho, forma e posição. Muito pouco se sabia sobre esse sinal, exceto em pacientes imunocomprometidos com COVID-19, para os quais a língua COVID era possivelmente uma expressão grave da COVID-19. Avaliar as manifestações linguais e fornecer orientação clínica para gerir estes sintomas é essencial para os próximos anos.
COVID-19 disease is caused by coronavirus severe acute respiratory syndrome 2, an ribonucleic acid virus wrapped and a member of the Coronaviridae family. This infection causes clinical manifestations such as fatigue, fever, dry cough, among others. Some oral manifestations have also been reported in patients with COVID-19, such as dysgeusia, which is an altered sensation of taste, ulcers, vesicle-bous, eruptions, petechiae, erythema, and tonguechanges (white, yellow, and/or fat tongue). Recently, a rare and minor symptom of the SARS- CoV-2 infection called the "COVID tongue" has recently been discovered, which is completely overtaken by another pathology: the "geographical language". This pathology is a chronic inflammatory disease with an incidence of 1 to 2% and its etiology is not fully understood, being able to be genetic and immunological and associated with psoriasis. The geographic tongue has irregular areas of filiform papillae loss on the back of the tongue that can vary in size, shape, and position. Little was known about this sign, except in patients immunocompromised with COVID-19, for whom the COVID language was possibly a severe expression of COVID-19. Assessing lingual manifestations and providing clinical guidance tomanage these symptoms is essential for years to come.
