ORAL HETERTOTOPIC GASTROINTESTINAL CYST: CASE REPORT
The oral heterotopic gastrointestinal cyst (OHCG), also known as enterocystoma, choristomatic cyst or lingual duplication cyst, is characterized as a benign proliferation and differentiation lesion of ectotopic cells. The present work aims to report a clinical case of a pediatric patient with enterocystoma. The treatment was carried out through surgical excision under general anesthesia in a hospital environment. Then, the 35mmx15mmx10mm piece was fixed in 10% formaldehyde and sent for histopathological analysis. As a result, a diagnosis of oral heterotopic gastrointestinal cyst was obtained. It is noticed that the treatment of choice presented satisfactory results with the complete removal of the lesion and without a history of recurrence.
