Oral candidiasis infection is generally treated with antifungal agents. However, it often requires long-term treatment, and epithelial dysplasia may persist even after the infection has been resolved depending on the case. Malignant transformation has been reported in long-term cases involving chronic inflammation, and surgical excision should be performed as the treatment of choice when the treatment period is prolonged. This report describes a case of maxillary gingival carcinoma caused by chronic inflammation related to oral candidiasis. The patient was an 85-year-old man who was admitted to our hospital with maxillary gingival pain. Cytology and biopsy revealed oral candidiasis and squamous cell carcinoma(cT1N0M0, Stage â
). He underwent partial maxillectomy. Post-operative recovery was uneventful, and there was no sign of recurrence or metastasis at the 1-year follow-up.
