Шаблон:Short description Aglossia (aglossia congenita) is a congenital defect resulting in a partial development or complete absence of a tongue.

Aglossia is commonly associated with craniofacial and limb defects (Adactylia syndrome) and is thought to belong to a family of oromandibular limb hypogenesis syndrome (OLHS). It is believed to be caused by heat-induced vascular disruption near the fourth week of embryonic development.Шаблон:Cn

The first known case was reported in the early 18th century by a member of the prominent De Jussieu family in France and cases to this day remain rare.[1]
