| Popis: | Epulis of the newborn is a granular cell tumour that originates from the dental alveolar mucosa. We report a case of a neonate with multiple congenital masses of the alveolar mucosa who presented for surgery with a potential airway problem. Intubation was achieved uneventfully using a gaseous induction with a large facemask and displacement of the epulides to allow cautious laryngoscopy. |
