Predisposition of allergy in patients with benign migratory glossitis.
Аннотация
OBJECTIVE
The purpose of this study was to investigate the presence of allergy in patients with benign migratory glossitis (BMG) using patch and prick tests.
PATIENTS AND
METHODS
Eighty patients (40 BMG and 40 healthy controls) received patch and prick tests. If at least one test result was positive, patients were considered to be allergic.
RESULTS
The prick test was positive in 10 patients (25.0%) of the study group and in 4 patients (10.0%) of the control group. The patch test was positive in 12 patients (30.0%) of the study group and in 6 patients (15.0%) of the control group. When results of both tests were evaluated together, the study group showed a positive rate of 47.5% (n = 19), whereas the control group showed a positive rate of 22.5% (n = 9) (P = .02).
CONCLUSION
Our results revealed that a combination of prick and patch tests can significantly enhance the diagnostic accuracy of predisposition of allergy in patients with BMG.
