Giant Cell Fibroma: A Histologic Case Report
نویسنده
چکیده
Giant cell fibroma is an asymptomatic sessile or pedunculated nodule. It is a reactive localized proliferation of fibrous tissue. The appearance is similar to irritational fibroma. It is usually small but in some cases it can be large. A female patient aged 45 years presented with a overgrowth on maxillary gingival in on 12, 13 region. The lesion was asymptomatic, firm and fibrous in consistency with rough surface. Excisional biopsy was done and sent for histological examination. Histologically the section showed epithelium and connective tissue stroma with large stellate shaped fibroblast. Based on these features, the lesion was diagnosed as giant cell fibroma.

Background: Gingival overgrowth is a common clinical finding that most often represents reactive hyperplasia as a result of inflammatory gingival disease related to dental plaque. Irritation fibroma (IF), pyogenic granuloma (PG), peripheral ossifying fibroma (POF), and peripheral giant cell granuloma (PGCG) are non-neoplastic enlargements of the gingiva that are categorized as reactive hyperpla...
