Abstract

ABSTRACT

Aim:
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.
