Congenital epulis is a rare lesion of the newborn, presenting as mass in the oral cavity which can interfere with respiration and feeding. It should be distinguished from other lesions which can occur in newborns, both clinically and histopathologically.
Here, we report a case of congenital epulis in a newborn female on the right alveolar ridge, along with an extensive review of literature and discuss the immunoprofiling.
Early diagnosis of CE in a newborn is of paramount importance in the successful management of these rare cases.
先天性牙龈瘤是新生儿罕见的病变,表现为口腔内肿块,可干扰呼吸和喂养。应在临床和组织病理学上与新生儿可能出现的其他病变相鉴别。
在此,我们报告一例新生儿女性右侧牙槽嵴先天性牙龈瘤病例,并对文献进行广泛综述,同时讨论免疫表型分析。
新生儿先天性牙龈瘤的早期诊断对于成功处理这些罕见病例至关重要。
