Abstract

Pregnancy epulis is a tumor-like lesion with high prevalence in China. The local lesion, the general condition of the pregnant patient, and the complications during treatment should be taken into consideration when making a treatment plan for pregnancy epulis. In this study, three representative pregnancy epulis cases were presented, and related studies at home and aboard were reviewed to summarize the etiology, differential diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of pregnancy epulis and share the clinical experience in the treatment of pregnancy epulis.

妊娠期牙龈瘤在中国发病率高,口腔门诊和产科门诊均十分常见,口腔医生在接诊妊娠期牙龈瘤的患者时,不仅要根据局部病灶的严重程度制定治疗方案,更需要了解孕妇的全身情况和胎儿的发育情况,预判治疗过程的各种风险。本文通过3例具有代表性的病例,并结合国内外文献,对妊娠期牙龈瘤的病因、鉴别诊断、治疗与预防及并发症的处理进行归纳,总结专科医生治疗妊娠期牙龈瘤的体会, 以期为临床提供参考。.
