| Popis: | Fibrous histiocytoma is a benign soft-tissue neoplasm that commonly involves the dermis. It is rare in the oral cavity. This lesion creates a diagnostic dilemma due to its nonspecific clinical appearance and microscopic similarities with other benign fibrous tissue lesions. Microscopically, it shows the proliferation of both spindle-shaped fibroblasts and histiocytes. Surgical excision is the treatment of choice with a good prognosis. The purpose of this paper is to report a rare case of gingival benign fibrous histiocytoma occurring in an 11-year-old female patient. The diagnosis of this lesion is based on combined clinical, histopathological, and immunohistochemical features. |
