Granulomatosa - An Uncommon Clinical Presentation with its Non - Surgical Management

چکیده
Cheilitis granulomatosa is characterized by recurrent or persistent swelling of one or both lips. The exact etiology is not certain. It may represent oral manifestations of Crohn's disease and sarcoidosis, so the complete diagnostic work up of the patient with suspected Cheilitis granulomatosa is a must. Microscopically, a non-necrotizing granulomatous inflammation is the typical feature. Management depends upon the severity of the condition and the patient's esthetic concerns. Here a case of successfully treated Cheilitis Granulomatosa along with gingival involvement in an 18 year old female is presented along with its clinical features.
