A newborn infant with multiple congenital oral swellings can be a striking sight for both parents and healthcare professionals involved in neonatal care. Neumann first described congenital epulis of a newborn in 1871, hence it is also known as Neumann's tumor. Congenital epulis occurs at birth and has a predilection for females. Congenital epulis clinically appears as a pedunculated protuberant mass. In cases with large lesions, mechanical, oral, and nasal obstruction can impair fetal deglutition or interfering with feeding and / or respiratory impairment. We are reporting a case of a six-day-old, 3.5 kg newborn female, who had reported to our institution with multiple congenital oral swellings arising from the maxilla and mandible.
对于参与新生儿护理的父母和医护人员来说,一个患有多处先天性口腔肿胀的新生儿可能是一幅惊人的景象。诺伊曼于1871年首次描述了新生儿先天性牙龈瘤,因此它也被称为诺伊曼肿瘤。先天性牙龈瘤在出生时出现,并且女性更易患病。先天性牙龈瘤临床上表现为带蒂的突出肿块。在病变较大的情况下,机械性、口腔和鼻腔阻塞会损害胎儿吞咽或干扰喂养和/或呼吸功能。我们报告一例6天大、体重3.5千克的新生女婴,她因上颌骨和下颌骨出现多处先天性口腔肿胀前来我院就诊。
