Orofacial granulomatosis is defined by permanent or recurrent swelling of orofacial tissues with different multiform
and multifocal clinical patterns. An 11-year old boy presented with a 2-month history of mucosa enlargement.
Intraoral examination revealed an erythematous, polylobulated, exophytic lesion with a smooth surface located in
retromolar mucosa, non-tender and non-infiltratated to palpation. The diagnosis was inflammatory lesion compatible
with pyogenic granuloma and laser excision was decided. Haematological parameters were within normal range,
as well as chest Xrays. These findings lead to a diagnosis of non-symptomatic orofacial granulomatosis, whose
early diagnosis can minimize the impact of systemic-related disorders, like Chron's disease. |
