Abstract

Congenital granular cell tumor (CGCT) is a unique benign tumor of soft tissue in newborns, which usually occurs on the anterior alveolar mucosa of the jaws. It is 8 to 10 times more prevalent in females than males. We present a case report of a 3-month-old female infant, who had a solitary mass on the anterior mandibular alveolar ridge. The lesion, which was histologically a congenital granular cell tumor, was removed completely by simple excision.
