A True Fibroma in the Hard Palate: A Report of a Rare Case
Lakshmi Narayanan S, Manoj Margabandhu, Kennedy Babu, Gandhimadhi D, Soorya K.V
TL;DR
This case report describes a rare true fibroma in the hard palate, diagnosed through histopathology.
Contribution
Highlights the importance of histopathology in diagnosing rare oral cavity neoplasms.
Findings
True fibroma is a rare lesion in the oral cavity.
Clinical findings alone are insufficient for accurate diagnosis of rare neoplasms.
Histopathology is essential for confirming rare lesions like true fibroma.
Abstract
The incidence of benign neoplasms is common in the oral cavity. Provisional diagnosis does not accurately identify rare neoplasms. With differential diagnosis of similar lesions and confirmation by histopathology, rare lesions can be identified. This case report also ended up to be a rare lesion of true fibroma in the palate through a histopathology report. Hence, the correlation of clinical findings to the confirmation with histopathology leads to a definitive diagnosis of uncommon lesions.
