Oral choristoma in one and a half year-old ouda ewe: a case report

AA Abubakar, A Jibril, AS Yakubu & YS Baraya

Abstract

A one and a half year old ouda ewe was presented with a firm, solid mass on the inner lateral wall of oral cavity attached to the gingiva. Histopathological findings indicate oral choristoma. The condition was managed surgically by excising the mass, flushing the oral cavity with mild chlohexidine gluconate, administration of broad spectrum antibiotic, steroidal anti-inflammatory and multivitamin injection.
