Bilateral symmetrical fibrous palate hyperplasia is not a common case in the literature. The cause of this pathological change is not completely known. The development of hyperplasia may also be associated with a genetic mutation in the gingival soft tissue or gingival injury. We present a case of a 47-year-old patient who developed a formation that manifested bilaterally in the hard palate. After the excision, there were no histological elements in the material that indicated aggressive behavior of the formation. The clinical and histological diagnosis was the bilateral symmetrical palate hyperplasia, which is a very rare condition.
双侧对称性纤维性腭部增生在文献中并非常见病例。这种病理变化的病因尚不完全清楚。增生的发展也可能与牙龈软组织的基因突变或牙龈损伤有关。我们报告一例47岁患者,其硬腭双侧出现肿物。切除后,送检材料中没有显示该肿物具有侵袭性的组织学特征。临床和组织学诊断为双侧对称性腭部增生,这是一种非常罕见的病症。
