Abstract

Orofacial granulomatosis is an uncommon disorder, but has been increasingly recognized in the past decade. It causes significant morbidity in the patient including oral ulcerations, enlargement of soft tissues which are often persistent and painful. This necessitates early medical intervention. We report one such case of a female patient who presented with a persistent upper lip enlargement. She had visited multiple general dental practitioners and general physicians but was undiagnosed. Ultrasonography proved an adjunctive tool in diagnosis. She was treated with a combination of topical and intra-lesional steroids. A 1-year follow-up did not show any evidence of recurrence.
