A 1.5 year old Kuwaiti child male presented with a massive bilateral ulcerative lesion of palate and gingiva with massive submandibular lymphadenopathy which were proven histologically to be due to an eosinophilic granuloma. Bone survey was normal. The patient was treated by chemotherapy and irradiation locally with dramatic response and no relapse occurred in more than 18 months of follow up.
