This study reviews the pathogenesis and analyzes demographic data, histopathological features and compares the clinico-pathologic profiles of the diseases to those previously reported.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Materials and Methods:<\/jats:title>\n Patient records of the Department of Oral Pathology during one and half year period were reviewed for diagnosis of oral connective tissue reactive hyperplastic lesion. Data including the area involved and the type of lesion were collected and analyzed using descriptive statistical methods and ANOVA test.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Results:<\/jats:title>\n 100 cases (mean age 36 years, male:female ratio 1:2) matched study criterion. The most common affected site was mandibular anterior region and buccal mucosa and the most common lesion was pyogenic granuloma and focal fibrous hyperplasia. All the lesions were more common in the mandible than in the maxilla. PGCG was seen to be equally distributed in males and females.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Conclusion:<\/jats:title>\n Reactive hyperplastic lesions of the oral connective tissue are more common in females and the majority of the lesions occur in gingiva. This study supports previous assertions that PG and FFH may occur on any oral mucosal site with special preference for the mandibular anterior gingiva and buccal mucosa while PGCG and POF occur exclusively on the mandibular gingiva.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.4103\/0976-237x.103621","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2012,11,20]],"date-time":"2012-11-20T04:40:59Z","timestamp":1353386459000},"page":"294-297","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1097\/lww.0000000000001000","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":22,"title":["Reactive lesions of oral cavity: A survey of 100 cases in Eluru, West Godavari district"],"prefix":"10.4103","volume":"3","author":[{"given":"Bina","family":"Kashyap","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Oral Pathology, St Joseph Dental College and Hospital, Eluru, Andhra Pradesh, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"P.
