Congenital granular epulis is a rare benign tumour situated on the alveolar ridge, which usually presents as a single tumour of variable size. Prenatal diagnosis of epulis has rarely been reported in medical literature. A possible complication is airway obstruction, which is essentially determined by the size of the tumour. Because of the potential risk of neonatal respiratory distress, prenatal diagnosis is valuable in the organization of a safe delivery. The case presented here is the prenatal diagnosis of a congenital epulis discovered in the 32nd week of pregnancy.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
