Abstract | Although early diagnosis of hematological diseases may remarkably improve the prognosis
and quality of life of patients, anemia is often unrecognized by physicians for lack of specific
systemic symptom. This article describes a 60-year-old male with a chief complaint of
tongue pain without any other symptoms. Full oral examination and hematological tests
revealed a megaloblastic anemia resulting in complex oral conditions. The association of
anemia and abnormal oral conditions is of importance to dental clinicians, as they may be
able to diagnose hematological disease at an early stage. |
