Abstract EN
Granulomatous cheilitis is a rare, idiopathic, inflammatory disorder which usually affects young adults.
It is characterized by persistent, diffuse, nontender, soft-to-firm swelling of one or both lips.
Various treatment modalities have been suggested.
In spite of the best treatment, recurrence of the disease is very common.
We report two cases of granulomatous cheilitis treated with a combination of steroids, metronidazole, and minocycline with no signs of relapse at one-year follow-up.
