AB  - A  23-year-old  male  medical  student  presents  to  the  physician's  office  complaining  of  his  tongue's  "strange  appearance."  He  denies  pain  or  discomfort  and  is  unsure  how  long  the  lesions  have  been  present.  The  lesions  seem  to  change  areas  of  distribution  on  the  tongue.  The  examination  reveals  large,  well-delineated,  shiny  and  smooth,  erythematous  spots  on  the  surface  of  the  tongue  (Figure  40-1).  The  diagnosis  is  geographic  tongue  (benign  migratory  glossitis).  The  physician  explains  that  it  is  benign  and  that  no  treatment  is  needed  unless  symptoms  develop.
