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. | ||
