Abstract:
Eosinophilic granuloma is a condition which may initially present with oral symptoms. Its variable oral clinical manifestations can result in a potential diagnostic problem for the dental surgeon. Two cases are presented which illustrate the difficulties in making a definitive diagnosis. The importance of a biopsy in diagnosis and the use of a whole-body skeletal scan in formulating a treatment plan are highlighted.
