Angiogenesis Inhibitor Drug-induced Benign Migratory Glossitis in a Patient of Juvenile-onset Recurrent Respiratory Papillomatosis under Maintenance Therapy

Benign migratory glossitis or geographic tongue is a chronic recurring inflammatory condition of the oral cavity. With its ephemeral characteristics, there has been reported literature showing its association with the administration of certain drugs including angiogenesis inhibitors. The antiangiogenic drugs act by selectively inhibiting the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) signaling. It has been widely used as an adjunct and a maintenance agent for the treatment of various cancers.
