ABSTRACT
Gingival granular cell tumour or congenital epulis is a rare benign soft tissue tumour that occurs mostly over lateral alveolar ridge of maxilla. The lesion behaves in a benign manner with spontaneous regression and without any recurrence or metastasis. We hereby report a case of congenital epulis in a 5 weeks old, baby girl who presented with single sessile mass over right side of maxillary alveolar ridge since birth; and want to emphasize that although rare this entity should always be considered in differential diagnosis of neonatal lesions of the oral cavity.
