Abstract

GARCIA MARTINEZ, F. J.; LOPEZ MARTIN, I.  and  SEGURADO RODRIGUEZ, M. A.. Pigmented fungiform papillae of the tongue. Rev Pediatr Aten Primaria [online]. 2015, vol.17, n.67, pp.e205-e207. ISSN 1139-7632.  https://dx.doi.org/10.4321/S1139-76322015000400015.

Pigmentation of fungiform papillae (PFP) is considered a physiological condition, although the pathogenesis remains unclear. PPF is relatively common in African or Asian patients. However, this condition does not usually appear reflected in principal dermatology’s textbooks. When the entity is known, its diagnosis is simple and exclusively clinical.

Keywords : Pigmentation of fungiform papillae; Dermoscopy; Laugier-Hunziker syndrome.
