  • Title: Gingival squamous cell carcinoma presenting as periodontal lesion in the mandibular posterior region.
    Author: Gupta R, Debnath N, Nayak PA, Khandelwal V.
    Journal: BMJ Case Rep; 2014 Aug 19; 2014():. PubMed ID: 25139914.
    Abstract:
    Gingival squamous cell carcinoma (GSCC) is a relatively rare malignant neoplasm of the oral cavity. It represents less than 10% of diagnosed intraoral carcinoma. Because of its close proximity to the teeth and periodontium, the tumour can mimic tooth-related benign inflammatory conditions. This case report describes a patient diagnosed with GSCC presenting as localised periodontitis.
