Orofacial granulomatosis is an uncommon disorder, but has been increasingly recognized in the past decade. It causes significant morbidity in the patient including oral ulcerations, enlargement of soft tissues which are often persistent and painful. This necessitates early medical intervention.

This leaflet has been prepared by the British Society for Oral Medicine (BSOM). 2017-4-23 · The term orofacial granulomatosis (OFG) is a descriptive term used for granulomatous disorders affecting the face and oral cavity, which can occur for a variety of reasons resulting in significant morbidity.

The mechanism of the enlargement is granulomatous inflammation. The underlying cause of the condition is not completely understood, and there is disagreement as to how it relates to Crohn's disease and sarcoidosis. The cause of orofacial granulomatosis is unknown, however, it may represent an abnormal immune response in someone with predisposing genetic factors.

Orofacial granulomatosis causes

The cause of orofacial granulomatosis is unknown, however, it may represent an abnormal immune response in someone with predisposing genetic factors. Orofacial granulomatosis (OFG) is an uncommon chronic granulomatous condition with a multifactorial etiology and pathogenesis. Genetic, immunologic, allergic, and infectious mechanisms have been implicated. OFG is often used as a descriptor to encompass all entities with orofacial swelling and histologic evidence of noncaseating granulomas. Orofacial granulomatosis histology The histology of orofacial granulomatosa is not too different than Crohn’s disease as it causes non-caseating granulomas with acute and chronic inflammation. Orofacial granulomatosis is an uncommon,1 but increasingly recognized, disorder characterized by persistent and/or recurrent labial enlargement, oral ulcers and a variety of other orofacial features, in the absence of identiﬁable Crohn’s disease of the intestine or sarcoidosis. Granulomas appear to cause lymphatic In the orofacial region primary causes of granulomatosis include foreign body reaction, delayed hypersensitivity to topical agents and idiopathic orofacial granulomatosis.

Orofacial granulomatosis (OFG) encompasses conditions characterized by non-necrotizing granulomatous inflammation of the oral and maxillofacial region that present clinically as labial enlargement, perioral and/or mucosal swelling, oral ulcerations, and gingivitis.

The precise cause of OFG is unknown. Background Orofacial granulomatosis is a relatively recent term coined by Wiesenfield et al. in 1985 to define granulomatous lesions of oral mucosa without intestinal involvement. When it presents in a triad encompassing facial nerve palsy, lip swelling, and fissured or furrowed tongue it is called Melkersson–Rosenthal syndrome while monosymptomatic or oligosymptomatic forms are referred to Dietary or other antigens are the most common identified cause of orofacial granulomatosis 17).
