Abstract

Summary


Currently, it is not unusual to have patients with symptoms due to the involvement of lingual tonsils and let us go unnoticed their suspicion. The signs and symptoms that patients may present are varied, from giving obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (the most common symptom) dysphagia, to poorly treated and poorly treated chronic cough. We present the clinical cases of two patients with hypertrophy of the lingual tonsils and a narrative review of the subject.
