Fibrosarcoma of the gingiva: A rare entity

牙龈纤维肉瘤:一种罕见疾病

阅读:1

Abstract

Fibrosarcoma is a rare malignancy of fibroblasts that seldom occurs in the oral cavity. Although rare, fibrosarcoma is an aggressive lesion associated with a poor survival rate. The occurrence of such a highly aggressive lesion on the gingiva is a diagnostic challenge for the clinician. This is because the gingiva is a common site for various inflammatory and nonspecific enlargements, which are commonly benign and the chances to overlook aggressive lesions are high. This case report describes an atypical case of fibrosarcoma of gingiva in a middle-aged individual that mimicked a nonspecific gingival enlargement.
