PALATAL PYOGENIC GRANULOMA IN A 5 MONTHS OLD INFANT: A RARE CASE REPORT

ABSTRACTAim: Previous studies about oral pathologies indicated wide range of oral lesions may present in pediatric population. Knowledge of prevelance and clinical features of lesions is important to accurate diagnosis and proper teratment. The purpose of this case report is to show uncommon placed lesion at a very early age, as a rare condition. Case Report: A 5-months-old male infant was reffered to our clinic with a mass on the hard palate which had growed in a short time period. Clinical examination showed solid, pedunculated, lobulated nodule that protruded from the palatal gingiva. Surgical treatment was planned under general anesthesia. Following the excision and histopathological examination, the diagnosis was confirmed as pyogenic granuloma. The healing was nearly completed at one week successfully. No recurrence was observed in one-year follow-up period. Conclusions: It is important to clinicians be aware of the intraoral lesions in neonatal period. All clinical features of oral lesions should be carefully evaluated for correct diagnosis and appropriate treatment planning. Keywords: Infant, lobular capillary hemangioma, oral pathology, palatina, pyogenic granuloma NADİR GÖRÜLEN BİR VAKA OLARAK 5 AYLIK BEBEKTE PALATAL PİYOJENİK GRANULOMA ÖZ Amaç: Oral patolojilerle ilgili daha önce yapılmış çalışmalar, pediatrik popülasyonda oldukça geniş bir dizi lezyonun ortaya çıkabileceğini göstermektedir. Oral patolojilerin prevalansının ve klinik özelliklerinin tanınması doğru teşhis ve uygun bir tedavi planı için önemlidir. Bu vaka raporunun amacı lokalizasyonu ve yaş döneminin erken oluşu itibariyle nadir olan bir lezyonu sunmaktır. Olgu Sunumu: 5 aylık bir erkek bebek sert damağında bulunan ve kısa sürede büyüyen kitle nedeniyle kliniğimize başvurmuştur. Bebeğin klinik muayenesinde, palatal dişetinden büyüyen, sert, saplı, lobüle bir nodül tespit edildi. Genel anestezi altında cerrahi tedavi planlandı. Total eksizyon ve histopatolojik incelemenin ardından piyojenik granüloma tanısı konuldu. Operasyon sonrası iyileşme bir haftada başarıyla tamamlandı. Cerrahi işlem sonrası 1 yıllık takipte rekürrens gözlenmedi. Sonuç: Yenidoğan döneminde klinisyenlerin intraoral lezyonlar hakkında bilgili olması önemlidir. Oral lezyonların tüm özellikleri doğru bir tanı tedavi planlaması için dikkatle değerlendirilmelidir.
