Abstract:
We report a case of metastatic hepatocellular carcinoma of gingiva mimicking pyogenic granuloma. To our knowledge, no such reports have been published in the literature of dermatology. Gingival metastatic lesions are of interest both because they are easily mistaken for several benign lesions and because they may be the first sign of an undiscovered malignancy.
