If neglected, it can reach a considerable volume. The marginal gingiva is very involved in the tumor either in isolation or with periodontal and alveolar bone. The epulis sits classically on the vestibular gum, rarely on the palatal side. We report a case of palatal giant epulis which posed a diagnostic problem. Case report: This was a 50-year-old patient with a large tumor occupying the entire oral cavity and pushing all nearby organs. This lesion had been evolving for ten years, with a tendency to gradually increase of its volume. The orthopantomogram revealed the destruction of the underlying alveolar bone without signs of tumor invasion. Surgical excision was performed, removing all the tumor in the vicinity of the nasopalatine vascular pedicle. The pathological examination concludes with an inflammatory epulis. Conclusion: The epulis is a benign tumor of the gum, circumscribed, localized preferentially at the neck of one or two contiguous teeth. It occurs more in women, with a predilection for the vestibular side, rarely the palatal side. In the absence of appropriate treatment it can lead to a large tumor, posing a diagnostic problem and causing functional or aesthetic discomfort. Complete surgical excision with histological examination remains the solution. Healing without sequelae is the rule.展开更多

Its pathogenesis remains incompletely understood. It appears to be common in Africa, but no study has been conducted in Togo. Our purpose was to describe epidemiological, clinical and therapeutic aspects of the epulis at the Campus University Teaching Hospital in Lomé. Patients and methods: This was a retrospective descriptive study on 33 cases at the Odontostomatology Department, from January 1st, 2014 to December 31st, 2016. Results: The prevalence of epulis was 0.88%. The average age of the patients was 36.92 years old. The most affected age group was 20 - 29 years old (30.30%). The sex ratio was 0.57. Low education and poor socio-economic conditions were found to be predisposing factors. Mucous swelling was the main reason for consultation. A local irritative factor was found in more than half of the cases. The preferred seat was gum (63.63%). Inflammatory epulis was found in 36.36% of cases. Biopsy-excision was performed in 96.96% of patients, with a cure without sequelae in 100%. Conclusion: The epulis is a rare benign affection of the gum. Its favoring factors are mechanical or infectious local irritation, or hormonal factors. His diagnosis is essentially clinical, but requires histological confirmation to distinguish it from other serious tumors. Biopsy-excision is the main treatment. No sequelae are observed in all patients of our series.展开更多

A 73-year-old-woman came to our attention for a mass, located in the oral cavity and more precisely in the right inferior maxillary alveolar ridge, that the patient firstly noticed 2 years earlier. Its dimensions increased over time and now were relevant. The mass was mobile, and non-ulcerated e did not evoke pain when palpated. It was characterized by a thin pedicle and its resection, under local anesthesia, allowed a complete removal of the mass itself. The histological examination showed a fibrous and plasmacellular epulis with calcific spots and mixoid aspects. We here report this case for the unique dimensions of this epulis and in order to give a useful example that could help in the differential diagnosis of the lesions located in the oral cavity.展开更多

CE mostly seen in girls. CE with unclear histogenesis and etiology is seen at birth as a solitary mass in oral cavity. Apart from non-congenital epulis, it contains granular cells. So lesion is named congenital granular cell tumor. CE has a benign histopathology and after surgery there is no recurrence reported in the literature. Aim: The purpose of this case report, is to present, 5 day-old female neonatal girl who was seen CE on the left maxillary alveolar ridge on the region of the future incisors. Case Presentation: The tumoral lesion was well-circumscribed and 10 mm in diameter, smooth surfaced and red in colour much like alveolar mucosal tissue. Tumoral lesion was affecting oral feeding due to obstruction. Excisional biopsy was performed under topical anesthesia. The histopathology was reported as congenital epulis. During the 4 months follow-up, we have seen no complication. Conclusion: CE is a neonatal congenital tumor which is very rare. The treatment of CE is surgical excision. Unless the early treatment is not executed, tumor may cause difficulties in oral feeding and respiration. Therefore it should be excised in an early period.展开更多
