Abstract excerpt
Non-syndromic hereditary gingival fibromatosis (HGF) is a rare condition, characterized by a progressive gingival hyperplasia that occurs as an isolated disease. Hitherto, only one insertion (g.126,142-126,143insC) in son-of-sevenless-1 (SOS1) gene has been associated with non-syndromic HGF in a Brazilian family. The aim of the present study was to determine if SOS1 is the causative gene of non-syndromic HGF in...
