Oral pulse granuloma associated with keratocystic odontogenic tumor: Report of a case and review on etiopathogenesis

Abstract: Pulse granuloma is a distinct oral entity characterized as a foreign body reaction occurring either centrally or peripherally. It is usually seen in the periapical or in the sulcus area. Occasionally the lesions occur in the wall of the cyst, commonest being the inflammatory odontogenic cyst. Histologically, they present as eosinophilic hyaline mass with giant cell inclusions and inflammatory cells. They may show different histological characteristics, possibly related to the length of time in the tissue. Adeq… Show more

“…The hyaline rings have been reported to be birefringent under polarized light[68] which was evident in the present case. Numerous giant cells were seen to contain ingested birefringent material [Figure 5b and d].…”

“…Histologically, they appear as eosinophilic hyaline mass with giant cell inclusions and inflammatory cells. [ 3 ] The granulomas may assume different histologic characteristics, possibly related to the length of time in the tissue (evolution) and location. Adequate recognition is important to avoid misdiagnosis.…”
