AbstractMelkersson-Rosenthal syndrome (MRS) was first described and named after E. Melkersson in 1928 and C. Rosenthal in 1931. MRS is a rare cause of recurrent facial nerve palsy and can manifest as facial paralysis, orofacial edema, and/or tongue fissuring. Presenting with the complete triad, it was scarcely reported in literature. However, the patient reported here had the complete triad. MRS should be considered when facial paralysis is recurrent or when it presents with orofacial edema, and/or tongue fissuring.Copyright © 2020, Ibrahim et al.
