    Abstract:
    The authors report a case of congenital epulis in the lower gum of a new born female. This rare benign tumor of the newborn is histologically characterized by the granular aspect of its cells. It occurs more frequently in females than in males. Differential diagnosis mainly concerns Abrikossoff tumor whose histogenesis and evolution are different. The distinctive features of epulis are the presence of a fusiform cell component and the negativity of the granular cells for PS100.
