Peripheral ossifying fibroma (POP) is a relatively common reactive gingival growth of uncertain pathogenesis.' In the literature, this pathologic lesion sometimes has been described as an ossifying fibroid epulis, a peripheral fibroma with calcification or a calcifying granuloma. In 1982, Gardner recommended that the only term used to describe this entity should be POP. POP are seen usually in ...

Peripheral fibroma/fibrous epulis accounts for the great majority of localised gingival swellings as was substantiated by various reports in the literature. A study was undertaken to investigate the clinical features of a series of 204 localised fibrous gingival swellings received by the Histopathology Laboratory, Department of Oral Surgery, National University of Singapore. The female patients...

Congenital granular cell tumor (CGCT), or congenital epulis, is a very uncommon benign soft tissue lesion that usually arises from the alveolar mucosa of neonates and may cause respiratory and feeding problems. We report a case of a 3-day-old female newborn, who presented an intraoral tumor mass which was protruding from her mouth, and compromising feeding. Under general anesthesia, the lesion ...

Neumann’s Tumour/Congenital Granular Cell Tumour (CGCT)/Granular Cell Epulis Of Infancy is a rare lesion of newborn. It is benign in nature, arising from the alveolar ridge of the gingiva. It is seen more frequently in female neonates. It may cause respiratory and feeding problems.Herewith, we present a case report of CGCT arising from the upper gingival margin of female neonate, treated with s...
