We present a case of a 47-year-old patient who developed a formation that manifested bilaterally in the hard palate.

The clinical and histological diagnosis was the bilateral symmetrical palate hyperplasia, which is a very rare condition.https://hrcak.srce.hr/file/376692PalateHyperplasiaFibrosesbilateral hyperplasiahard palate
