There also may or may not be any signs of medical and/or family history of mental retardation, hypertrichosis, nor clinical symptoms that can be associated with gingival enlargement. [en.wikipedia.org]

Based on FISH analysis it was found that there are 2 gene loci on the short arm of chromosome 2 located in 2p21-2p22 and 2p13-p16 [8]. [article.sapub.org]

arm of chromosome 2 that are responsible for gingival fibromatosis were identified in a Brazilian family. [njms.in]

A case of a 9-year-old child with hereditary gingival fibromatosis, supernumerary tooth, chest deformities, auricular cartilage deformation, joint laxity and undescended testes is described. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

All complained similarly of weight loss, difficulty with articulation, and social isolation. Physical examination revealed massive overgrowth of both maxillary and mandibular gingiva, as well as multiple ectopic teeth. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

disorders Other dental and oral problems In some cases, Hereditary Gingival Fibromatosis may cause bleeding from the gums, or gum ulcerations. [en.wikipedia.org]

disorders [1] Other dental and oral problems [4] Mechanism Genetic linkage studies are among the most popular methods of study to look at the mechanism of this HGF. [ipfs.io]

In addition to HGF, both patients had short stature, subnormal growth velocity, and delayed bone age but no abnormalities on magnetic resonance imaging of the brain. Serum prolactin levels and results of thyroid function tests were normal. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Underlying connective tissue showed dense fibro-collagenous tissue and mild lymphocytic infiltration. Hence, the case was diagnosed as gingival hyperplasia [Figure 4]. [jicdro.org]
