Epignathus is an extremely rare, benign, congenital teratoma that arises from within the oral cavity and may be attached to the mandible, palate, or base of the skull. Because of its location, it can cause airway and feeding problems, as well as secondary defects due to the presence of an intraoral tumor. This tumor usually causes death in neonates, due to airway obstruction. Surgical removal is usually impossible, especially in large tumors (Stone, 1951; Bennett, 1970). A patient with a neonatally diagnosed nonobstructive palatopharyngeal epignathus is described. It was associated with a shortened palate, cleft uvula, and velopharyngeal insufficiency, and was successfully excised surgically.

AbstractDrug-induced gingival overgrowth (DIGO) secondary to chronic phenytoin intake for seizure control is a well-recognized phenomenon. Phenytoin-induced gingival overgrowth (PIGO) usually resolves gradually following cessation of phenytoin intake. It is usually seen throughout the dentate regions of the maxillary and mandibular dental arches, but more severely affect their anterior portions exposed to atmosphere. We report a rare case of PIGO predominantly involving hard palate and floor of oral cavity, which has not been reported in English literature till date.
