Abstract

An 11-year-old girl reported with an intraoral swelling which was noticed by her mother at birth and increased to its present size during the last year. A thorough clinical examination did not shed a conclusive diagnosis. This case highlights and discusses the history, clinical features, histologic features, differential diagnosis and the clinical management of this lesion. Awareness of such an entity will enrich the knowledge of the pediatric dentists who may be the first ones to encounter such cases in their day-to-day practice.
