“…In the cases analyzed by Brown et al, 14 a recurrence rate of 46.2% of PGCG associated with dental implants was observed, which is considerably higher than that of PGCG in general, where an average recurrence rate of 5 to 11% is reported.…”

Objetivo: este estudo tem como objetivo apresentar e descrever as principais alterações patológicas, benignas e malignas da mucosa peri-implantar. Material e Métodos: uma revisão integrativa da literatura foi realizada utilizando os seguintes descritores: patologia peri-implantar; implante dentário de lesão reativa; implante dentário de carcinoma; implante dentário de doença peri-implantar; lesão reativa por implante dentário; carcinoma oral de células escamosas ao redor de implantes dentários; doença peri-implantar; patologia; para a elaboração da estratégia de busca nas bases de dados PubMed, LILACS, MEDLINE e SciElo para obtenção das produções científicas. Resultados: condições como mucosite peri-implantar e peri-implantite são pouco relatadas na literatura, o que dificulta a estimativa de sua real prevalência. Dentre as lesões reativas benignas, destacam-se o granuloma piogênico e o granuloma periférico de células gigantes, descritos como os mais frequentemente associados aos implantes. Em relação à neoplasia, foram publicados casos de hemangioma e CECO, sugerindo uma possível influência do implante no desenvolvimento dessas condições. Conclusão: a ocorrência de diversas patologias associadas a implantes dentários foi observada na literatura, o que demonstra a importância de um exame clínico detalhado, associado, em determinadas situações, a exame histopatológico para um diagnóstico acurado e manejo adequado das diversas doenças peri-implantares

“…The treatment of the PGCG involves the removal of irritating factors and, mainly, the surgical excision of the lesion, carefully curetting its edges and base, in order to reduce recurrences [10, 11, 25]. In the presented case, the patient was submitted to excisional biopsy of the lesion through its curettage with removal of the periosteum, periodontal ligament, and curettage of the teeth involved with vestibular access and there was no recurrence of the lesion.…”

Peripheral giant cell granuloma (PGCG) is a nonneoplastic lesion that may affect any region of the gingiva or alveolar mucosa of edentulous and toothed areas, preferentially in the mandible and rarely occurring in children. This report describes the clinical and histopathological findings of a PGCG diagnosed in the maxilla of a 9-year-old boy associated with a tooth erupting improperly and a traumatic habit. The patient did not present anything noteworthy on extraoral physical examination or medical history, but the habit of picking his teeth and “poking” the gingiva. The oral lesion consisted of an asymptomatic, rounded, pink colored, smooth surface, soft tissue injury with fibrous consistency and approximated size of 1.5 cm located in the attached gingiva between the upper left permanent lateral incisor and the primary canine of the same side. Excisional biopsy was performed through curettage and removal of the periosteum, periodontal ligament, and curettage of the involved teeth with vestibular access. The histopathological analysis led to the diagnosis of PGCG. The prompt diagnosis and treatment of the PGCG resulted in a more conservative surgery and a reduced risk for tooth and bone loss and recurrence of the lesion. After four years of control, patient had no relapse of the lesion and good gingival and osseous health.

“…It was originally called "pseudotumor" because of its expansive growth and radiological aspect similar to malignant tumors 2 . In 1994, The World Health Organization described IMT as an intermediary tumor of the soft tissue, composed of differentiated myofibroblasts, spindle cells and numerous inflammatory cells including plasma cells with or without lymphocytes 3 . IMT has no preference of age and may range from 1 to 70 years.…”

Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor (IMT) is a soft tissue tumor that is most common in lungs but it can be located in a large variety of anatomical sites. The occurrence in the oral cavity is rare and exhibits a wide spectrum of clinical behavior. This article is a case report and review of the literature of oral IMT presentation. Here, we report an unusual IMT in retromolar region on the left side in a 21-year old female patient. This is the second case of IMT in this anatomic region reported in English-language literature. IMT case reports are important to better understand the clinical, histopathological and behavioural aspects of this tumor. The complete surgical excision of the tumor seems to be the effective treatment.
