Tongue Bumps as a Manifestation of Underlying Endocrine Neoplasia
An 11-year-old female presented for evaluation of multiple, slowly enlarging bumps on her tongue (Fig. 1). On physical exam, she had a tall and lanky build with an elongated face, prominent lips, and bilateral palpable cervical lymphadenopathy (Fig. 2). She was referred to Otolaryngology for further evaluation. Flexible laryngoscopy showed similar-appearing lesions in her larynx (Fig. 3).
