    Abstract:
    Report on a nodular form of tuberculosis of the tongue in a 91-year-old patient, which was cured completely by exstirpation and tuberculostatic therapy. The histologic examination of this "tumor of the tongue" lead to the radiologic proof of a chronic-specific lung process, which is interpreted as the source of the tuberculosis of the tongue by blood-stream dissemination. Discussion of the clinical and morphological forms of the tuberculosis of the tongue, of the differential diagnosis, as well as references to the importance of histologic examinations of ulcers of the tongue resulting in the detection of a specific lung process in some cases.
