In this article two case reports of pyostomatitis vegetans are presented. Both cases were associated with inflammatory bowel disease and one case was also associated with liver dysfunction. It has recently been reported that there may be a link between liver dysfunction and pyostomatitis vegetans. The management of the condition is illustrated and the literature on the subject is reviewed.
