Cross Sectional Study of Fibromatous Epulis in A Buffalo Herd
Journal Title: Concepts of Dairy & Veterinary Sciences - Year 2018, Vol 1, Issue 5
Abstract
Fibromatous epulis, is a rare growth affecting the gingival mucosa of neonates. It is benign condition seen more frequently in females with multiple Epuli occurring in only 10% of cases. The cause and origin of fibromatous epulis remains unclear. This clinical investigations discussed about the epidemiology, clinical outcome, concurrent infection, biochemical and complete blood profile of a buffalo calf positive for epulis. Epulis arising from the upper and lower gingival margin, which were successfully managed therapeutically. Gingival masses of all types, many of which are of tooth germ origin, are common in dogs, but occur less frequently in other species [1]. The term epulis is used inconsistently for localized exophytic gingival growths, both reactive and neoplastic [2] and has been applied to various lesions including fibromatous epulis of periodontal ligament origin, acanthomatous ameloblastoma and peripheral giant cell granuloma [3]. The gingival tumours interfere with normal mastication of feed because of their location and pain sensation induced in adjoining areas and because of this reason animals undergo anorectic condition. This research paper reporting the epidemiology, concurrent infection, laboratory profile and clinical outcome of epulis in an organized buffalo farm.
