    Abstract:
    A newborn baby boy weighing 3100 g was found to have a pinky red solid mass 3 x 2.5 x 2 cm arising from the anterior ridge of the maxilla. This caused difficulty in feeding, and looked ugly. The mass was excised under local anaesthetic when he was 2 days old and histological examination showed congenital epulis. He also had a stage II congenital goitre. His hypothyroidism was treated with L-thyroxine sodium and he was well with no sign of recurrence of the tumour at the age of 1 year.
