Abstract:
Congenital epulis is a rare benign pedunculated tumour of
the oral cavity arising from the alveolar ridges. It is usually
detected in newborns and can be successfully resected
surgically. We report a case of a newborn baby who had a
5x3x3cm pedunculated lobar mass arising from the upper
alveolar ridge.
