The presence of a lingual tonsil hypertrophied isn&#8217;t diagnosed most of the times, with their occurrence being associated with previous tonsillectomy in more than half of the cases. Its occurrence, and non-identification, can originate scenarios of difficult airway approach, with a higher morbility association.]]></p></abstract>

La hipertrofia de las amígdalas linguales es subdiagnosticada y se suele asociar a amigdalectomía previa en más de la mitad de los casos.
