As hepatocellular carcinoma metastases well to distant site, half of the cases metastases to distant site at diagnosis. However hepatocellular carcinoma metastasis to oral cavity, especially gingival metastasis, is very rare and only 25 such cases were reported so far. This is the first reported case of hepatoma metastasis to the gingiva in Korea. Although the prognosis of the hepatocellular carcinoma was very poor in the past, the survival time seemed to be prolonged by early diagnosis and improvement of medical therapy. Therefore the importance of metastatic lesion of the hepatocellular carcinoma might be reemphasized. We recently experienced a case of hapatoma metastasis to the gingiva.
