CORREA, Pablo Emilio  and  ARIAS MENDIETA, Sara. Resection of fibrous lesion in oral mucosa. Throttling technique. CES odontol. [online]. 2016, vol.29, n.1, pp.82-87. ISSN 0120-971X.

The traumatic fibroma is considered a benign growth tumor that can appears in any organ, but it does most frequently in the oral cavity, and it is defined as a reactive hyperplasia of fibrous connective tissue, and it´s etiological factor is trauma or local irritation. It usually occurs asymptomatic in places like mucosal lining, tongue and side edges of alveolar ridge of edentulous patients. The injury usually is not associated with symptoms and is most often seen in adults, but can be found in individuals of any age and gender. In the present article, a new technique is proposed, which consist of surgical removal of the lesion. It is a simple procedure in which decreased vascular supply pressure is proposed and does not require more operating time, also does not involve a significant risk or complications for patients. Recurrences are rare, unless the irritant factor is eliminated.

Keywords : Fibroma; etiology; resection techniques; surgical treatment.
