Abstract
Recently developing countries showing growing trend in hepatocellular carcinoma cases. Hepatocellular carcinoma metastasis to oral cavity is uncommon finding. Most common site for mets is lung, breast, kidney. Data on HCC metastasis to oral cavity is limited. We present here one such rare case of HCC metastasis to oral cavity. Awareness about the entity helps in early diagnosis and management that leads to better prognosis and good quality of life to patient.
