Area of Science:

  • Veterinary Medicine
  • Oral Pathology
  • Oncology

Background:

  • Ossifying epulis is a common benign oral neoplasm in dogs.
  • Recurrence can occur after surgical resection.

Observation:

  • A seven-year-old male Siberian Husky-cross presented with a recurrent gingival mass.
  • The mass was located between the maxillary left first and second premolars.

Findings:

  • The ossifying epulis recurred four months after initial resection.
  • En bloc resection achieved tumor-free margins.
  • No recurrence was observed 12 months post-surgery.

Implications:

  • Complete surgical excision with wide margins is crucial for managing ossifying epulis.
  • Long-term monitoring is recommended to detect potential recurrence.
