Fibroma of tonsil

Abstract

Benign neoplasms of the tonsillar region are rare and these include haemangiomas, fibromas, lipomas and schwannomas (Friedmann I, 1986). True fibromas of oral cavity and oropharynxes are very rare (Waal I. V., Snow, G. B. 1993). Fibromas have been recorded in nasal cavity, pharynx and larynx (Fu Y. S., Perzin K. H. 1976), We report a case of fibroma of tonsil for its rarity.

Fibroma of Buccal Mucosa: Case Report and Literature Review

“…However, Stout stated that "it is exceedingly difficult to decide whether or not there is true benign neoplasm composed of fibroblasts" (Shamim et al, 2008). Since true fibromas of oral and maxillofacial areas are infrequent (Goravalingappa et al, 1999), the case below is one of its kinds. Consequently, the histologic criteria of a true fibroma were first described by Barker and Lucas.…”
