Oral pregnancy tumour: An update

Oral complications that may aff ect periodontal health during pregnancy include an increased susceptibility to gingivitis and periodontitis or to the development of an oral pregnancy tumour (OPT) (Lindenm ü ller et al. 2010). Th e OPT, also known as pyogenic granuloma (PG), granuloma pyogenicum or granuloma gravidarum, is a neoplastic, non-malignant lesion and one of the infl ammatory hyperplasias seen in the oral cavity (Gondivkar et al. 2010; Kamal et al. 2012). Since this mass is less familiar to obstetricians than to dentists, and can cause signifi cant problems in pregnancy (Sills et al. 1996), we review the aetiology, clinical features, histopathology, diff erential diagnosis and treatment of the oral pregnancy tumour and put a focus on the clinical management of this lesion for obstetricians and practitioners that are engaged in primary care of pregnant women.
