Abstract

A 16-year-old non-smoker, non-tobacco addict boy presented with history of a slowly growing swelling over his right cheek region of 8-month duration with difficulty in opening the mouth for past 3 months. Local examination revealed a firm to hard, nodular subcutaneous mass on the right side of face reaching up to right lower jaw. The overlying skin was tense and shiny. Examination of oral cavity revealed mild trismus and 6x6x2 cm mass causing bulging over right buccal mucosa and gingivo-buccal sulcus region. The mass was well circumscribed and appeared to be free from the mucosa and bone. There was no cervical lymph node enlargement. Rest of the physical examination was normal.
