title: Sebaceous carcinoma of the maxillary gingival: First reported case involving the gingiva.
abstract: Sebaceous carcinoma of the oral cavity is extremely rare. To date, only 9 cases of primary sebaceous carcinoma involving the oral cavity have been reported in the English literature, with the majority of cases occurring on the buccal mucosa. This report describes a case of sebaceous carcinoma involving the maxillary gingiva. To our knowledge this is the first reported case of sebaceous carcinoma of the gingiva.
