Gingival plasma cell granuloma: a case report

doi:10.7518/hxkq.2022.01.015

Abstract

Abstract:

Plasma cell granuloma is extremely rare in the oral cavity. This paper reports a case of plasma cell granuloma in the oral cavity and reviews the literature. In this case, the plasma cell granuloma occurred in the gingiva, which was bright red and granular. The lesion was resected and diagnosed as gingival plasma cell granuloma by clinical pathological examination. Four months follow-up after operation surgery showed no signs of recurrence. Although gingival plasma cell granuloma is rare, it is easily confused with related diseases and should be identified and followed up closely.

Key words: gingival, plasma cell granuloma, diagnose, treatment
