We present a case of congenital epulis, diagnosed prenatally with US. Congenital epulis is a benign gingival tumour whose differential diagnosis includes other oral-facial masses such as haemangioma, granular cell myoblastoma and cystic hygroma. This tumour can cause obstruction of the airway or feeding problems in the newborn child. Surgical excision is the treatment of choice.
