Abstract
Granular cell epulis is a rare benign tumor of the newborn. It originates from the alveolar ridge, most commonly from the maxillary alveolar ridge. Despite its striking appearance, the lesion is ultimately benign. However, immediate surgical treatment is required if there is a risk of airway obstruction or feeding difficulties. We report two cases of granular cell epulis presented at birth, the first with a large mass originating from the maxillary alveolar ridge and the second with the mass originating from the mandibular alveolar ridge. Both were successfully managed with surgical excision without complications. Histopathology of both masses confirmed the granular cell epulis diagnosis.
