Abstract: | Four cases of granulomatous cheilitis, an uncommon disease and one that is difficult to treat, are described. The cause of chronic swelling of the lips has been in dispute for over 50 years. In our material we have excluded sarcoidosis and silica, two of the postulated causes, and we suggest that hypersensitivity is concerned. |
