Abstract

Purpose: Sublingual varicose veins are a common vascular lesion with different names, such as caviar tongue or vascular malformations. This study aimed to investigate whether there is an association between sublingual varicose veins and cardiovascular diseases by observing arterial hypertension, diabetes, thrombosis, and infarction. In addition, to evaluate a series of thrombi that affected the oral cavity and to analyze their clinical aspects and relate them to possible systemic alterations.

Methods: This is a cross-sectional study consisting of a sample of 134 varicosities, 23 vascular malformations, and 4 thrombosis.

Results: Lingual varicosities are more frequently observed in women aged 57.4 ± 16.4 years. Hypertension was present in lingual varicosities (n = 73), as well as diabetes (n = 107), reports of thrombosis (n = 41), and infarction (n = 45). Arterial hypertension was decompensated (n = 12). The most frequent underlying diseases were diabetes (p < 0.001), infarction (p = 0.012), and thrombosis (p = 0.004), and the most commonly used drug was losartan.

Conclusion: It can be inferred from the present study that lingual varicosities are related to cardiovascular diseases and can serve as a parameter to measure their decompensation.

舌下静脉曲张横断面研究：全身暴露。

目的：舌下静脉曲张是一种常见的血管病变，有不同的名称，如鱼子舌或血管畸形。本研究旨在通过观察动脉高血压、糖尿病、血栓形成和脑梗塞，探讨舌下静脉曲张与心血管疾病之间是否存在关联。此外，还对一系列影响口腔的血栓进行评估，分析其临床表现，并将其与可能的全身性改变联系起来：这是一项横断面研究，包括 134 例静脉曲张、23 例血管畸形和 4 例血栓形成：结果：舌静脉曲张多见于 57.4 ± 16.4 岁的女性。舌侧静脉曲张中存在高血压（73 例）、糖尿病（107 例）、血栓形成（41 例）和脑梗塞（45 例）。动脉高血压失代偿（12 例）。最常见的基础疾病是糖尿病（P从本研究中可以推断，舌静脉曲张与心血管疾病有关，可以作为衡量心血管疾病失代偿的参数。

期刊介绍： Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery founded as Mund-, Kiefer- und Gesichtschirurgie is a peer-reviewed online journal. It is designed for clinicians as well as researchers.The quarterly journal offers comprehensive coverage of new techniques, important developments and innovative ideas in oral and maxillofacial surgery and interdisciplinary aspects of cranial, facial and oral diseases and their management. The journal publishes papers of the highest scientific merit and widest possible scope on work in oral and maxillofacial surgery as well as supporting specialties. Practice-oriented articles help improve the methods used in oral and maxillofacial surgery.Every aspect of oral and maxillofacial surgery is fully covered through a range of invited review articles, clinical and research articles, technical notes, abstracts, and case reports. Specific topics are: aesthetic facial surgery, clinical pathology, computer-assisted surgery, congenital and craniofacial deformities, dentoalveolar surgery, head and neck oncology, implant dentistry, oral medicine, orthognathic surgery, reconstructive surgery, skull base surgery, TMJ and trauma.Time-limited reviewing and electronic processing allow to publish articles as fast as possible. Accepted articles are rapidly accessible online.Clinical studies submitted for publication have to include a declaration that they have been approved by an ethical committee according to the World Medical Association Declaration of Helsinki 1964 (last amendment during the 52nd World Medical Association General Assembly, Edinburgh, Scotland, October 2000). Experimental animal studies have to be carried out according to the principles of laboratory animal care (NIH publication No 86-23, revised 1985).
