Dermal filler-related oral lesion

[摘要] Introduction:Oral adverse reactions related to natural dermal fillers may originate frominfiltration techniques, giving rise to swellings, nodule formation doe to localmaterial entrapment, or displacement or migration of the material used.Objective:describe a case of orofacial foreign body reaction in an elderly patient.Case report:a 65-year-old woman was referred for oral evaluation complaining of an intraorallesion present for 15 days. Intraoral examination revealed a mobile nodule inthe lower lip left portion. After the initial consultation, incisional biopsywas performed under local anesthesia and the surgical specimen was sent forhistopathological analysis. Intraoral examination revealed a soft mobile nodulein the lower lip left portion. Clinical pathological and Raman microspectroscopyanalysis led to a final diagnosis of calcium hydroxyapatite dermal filler-relatedreaction. Conclusions:this case reinforces the possibility of dermal filler-related mucosal tissuereactions in oral cavity soft tissues.
