| description |
Metastatic disease to the oral cavity is rare, representing only 1-8% of oral malignancies, and involvement
of the mandibular ramus is even less prevalent. This report is a unique case of metastatic
adenocarcinoma of the colorectal to the mandible. Clinical presentation can be quite variable, and
most often a primary malignancy is already known. Jawbone metastasis are a sign of disseminated
malignant neoplasms, with poor prognosis and usually an indication for palliative therapy. The
requirement for arrival at an appropriate and prompt diagnosis is crucial for determining the most
appropriate treatment regimens and improved outcomes. The oral metastatic lesion may be the
first indication of an undiscovered distant primary tumor, making timely evaluation and treatment
critical from an oncologic perspective. Here we report a known case of mucinous adenocarcinoma
of colon who was referred due to a mandibular lesion.
