Abstract

Granulomatous cheilitis (GC) also known as Miescher cheilitis, is a rare chronic inflammatory idiopathic disorder of lips characterized by painless swelling of lips and was first described by Meischer in 1945. Wiensenfeld described it as non caseating granulomatous inflammation without any systemic cause and termed it as Oro facial granulomatosis (OFG). We hereby wish to present this rare entity, the mode of presentation and its various treatment modalities.
