A 58-year-old female sought care at the stomatology clinic with a complaint of feeling "a lump in my mouth caused by my denture." Upon physical examination, a sessile, lobulated, normochromic, fibrous lesion was identified in the right posterior region of the floor of the mouth and the retromolar area, which had been present for the past 3 months. The patient reported experiencing trauma due to her lower removable partial prosthesis and was a smoker. Based on the clinical presentation, the initial diagnosis was suspected to be squamous cell carcinoma. Subsequently, an incisional biopsy was performed. However, histological analysis of the H&E stained slides revealed a mixed inflammatory infiltrate, predominantly composed of macrophages and eosinophils within a fibrous connective tissue stroma. An excisional biopsy was subsequently conducted, confirming the diagnosis of traumatic granuloma with tissue eosinophilia. The patient has been under follow-up for 7 months with no indications of recurrence. Furthermore, the patient was advised to consider obtaining a new removable prosthesis. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
