The results were as follows : 1. A series of 68 cases of epulis has been treated by conservative surgical excision. This series was classified histopathologically to be ; 27 cases epulis granulomatosa (39.7%), 13 cases epulis fibrosa (19.1%), 12 cases epulis hemangiomatosa (17.6%), 10 cases epulis fibromatosa (14.7%), 4 cases epulis osteoplastica (5.9%), 1 case giant cell epulis (1.5%) and 1 case congenital epulis (1.5%), according to Ishikawa classification (1982). 2. The majority of 68 epulis cases was in patients between 40 to 50 years of age. By sex, the incidence was 2.4 times greater in females than in males. 3. These lesions were located more frequently on the maxillary gingiva (60.3%) than on the mandibular gingiva (39.7%). The epulis in the majority of 68 cases was located in the anterior segments of the jaws. 4. The epulis in the majority of 68 cases was smaller than the thumb tip. 5. As to the recorded known duration, the incidence under 1 year was 60.3% and over 2 years was 25%. 6.
