A rare case of metastasis of gastric adenocarcinoma to the maxillary gingiva is reported. A 65-year-old man had an epulis-like mass on the incisal region of the maxillary gingiva. The patient had a history of gastric adenocarcinoma, and the lower two thirds of the stomach had been resected.<BR>The mass was completely removed, with partial resection of the maxilla. The clinical course was good, with no evidence of recurrence. Histopathological examination showed that the oral tumor was a tubular adenocarcinoma morphologically similar to adenocarcinoma of the stomach.<BR>Metastatic tumors to the oral cavity usually arise in the mandible. To our knowledge, only 2 cases of gastric adenocarcinoma metastasizing to the incisal region of the maxillary gingiva, including ours have been reported.
