Abstrakt:	Pigmented fungiform papillae of the tongue is a benign condition characterized by localized hyperpigmentation confined to fungiform papillae. Although the condition is not rare and might be easily diagnosed in dark-skinned adults and children, it is seldom mentioned in the medical literature. Here, we describe an 11-year-old boy presenting typical features of pigmented fungiform papillae of the tongue. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
