    Abstract [en]

    Epithelioid cell granulomatosis (ECG) is a diagnosis of anatomical pathology (PAD) and a type of inflammation seen in oral biopsies. ECG presents with histological features such as epithelioid cell granuloma with or without presence of multinucleated giant cells, inflammatory cells and occasionally oedematous fibrotic changes. Clinical symptoms presents as e.g. enlargement of lips, facial swelling, angular cheilitis and gingival hyperplasia. Orofacial granulomatosis (OFG) is the clinical diagnosis given PAD ECG with a multifactorial aetiology e.g. Crohn’s disease (CS) and sarcoidosis. The Department of Oral Pathology, Faculty of Odontology, Malmö University, determine PAD of oral biopsies that when given ECG are marked with the code of diagnosis 995, given 152 referrals. This retrospective follow-up of referrals with PAD ECG aims to investigate represented aetiology, management of referrals and to get a notion of whether the oral biopsy has contributed to systemic diagnosis, if there has been any feedback between included instances and collaboration between dentists and physicians. Number of included participants could be interpreted as an interest in ECG, which most frequently showed to be CS, agreeing with later confirmed diagnosis. The management in some cases of referral lacked feedback between health professionals as well as absence of predetermined ways of referral. Others showed cooperation and that the oral biopsy had contributed to diagnosis of systemic disease. The authors wish that this study will contribute to a well functional communication between health professionals, anticipating a more efficient and secure management of patients, improvement of early diagnosis and decreased patient discomfort.
