Background : traumatic ulcerative granuloma with stromal eosinophilia (TUGSE) is a benign chronic ulcerative lesion of the oral mucosa of an unclear pathogenesis characterized by a mixed infiltrate of inflammatory cells including large mononuclear cells, lymphocytes and eosinophils.

This study was designed to find any possible correlation between the number of different cells infiltrates and the clinical features.

Method : A histopathological objective analysis was performed on ten high-power fields and the number of different types of cells was correlated with the clinical data.

Results : No relationship was found between clinical and the quantifiable histopathological features studied.

Conclusion : No correlation is existed between the type of cell infiltrate and the size, site or the duration of the lesion was found.
