Abstract

A 23-year-old white female was referred for a painless swelling on the retrocomissural mucosa of 1 year's duration. Intraoral examination revealed a well-defined, broad-based, red-yellowish swelling, measuring 2 cm in its greatest dimension. Its consistency was firm, it had indurated borders, and it exhibited a highly vascularized, lobulated, and nonulcerated surface. Medical history was not contributory, and extraoral examination did not reveal any cervical lymphadenopathy.
