| مستخلص: | Congenital gingival granular cell tumors (also known as congenital epulis or Neumann's tumor) are rare and always benign intraoral tumors originating from the alveolar ridge. They are typically seen as a mass protruding out of a newborn child's mouth. We report a case of a large obstructive congenital gingival granular cell tumor of the mandibular ridge. The intraoral mass was first detected on a 38-week prenatal ultrasound scan and resulted in neonatal airway obstruction. Complete surgical removal was performed with an uneventful postoperative course. Histologic and immunohistochemical assessments with antibodies against S-100 protein confirmed the diagnosis. The clinical and morphological aspects, differential diagnosis, histogenesis, and treatment are discussed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
