Normal anatomy?: We have normally glandular rounded structures called circumvallate papillae in a v shaped line separating the front 2/3 rds of the tongue and back 1/3 rd . Behind the circumvallate papillae are lingual tonsills -one on either side containing multiple follicles-gland like structures grouped together ,appear in front of epiglottis.
