From: Oral lymphomatoid granulomatosis, the first sign of a ‘rare disease’: a case report
The course of the clinical presentation of the oral lymphomatoid granulomatosis before and after therapy. (a) Reddened, easy to bleed gingival ulceration with granulomatous tissue, dental root exposure and mobility of teeth 4.1 and 4.2. (b) Radiological evaluation: panoramic radiography shows mandibular alterations in the area of the incisors (black arrow) and resorption of the right incisor-canine alveolare ridge (thin black arrow). Axial computed tomography scans shows osteitis (black arrow). (c) The gingival ulceration has extended, with bacterial colonization. (d) At eight-month follow-up: the granulomatous lesion has disappeared; the gingival inflammation persists with the spontaneous loss of tooth 4.2.
