Preferred Name

Microglossia

Definitions
Decreased length and width of the tongue. Normal standards do not exist. The term aglossia is often used for extremely small tongue, but a nubbin of tongue tissue is almost always present and aglossia in sensu strictu is extremely rare. This is an acknowledged bundled term, but due to its frequent usage and relative paucity of situations that would call for separate individual assessments of tongue dimensions, the bundled term is retained.
Synonyms
Hypoplastic tongue
Lingual hypoplasia
Small tongue
Decreased size of tongue
Abnormally small tongue
Hypoglossia
Underdevelopment of the tongue
Rudimentary tongue
Hypoplasia of the tongue
