JAW ADENOCARCINOMA MANDIBLE NEOPLASM METASTASIS |
| Abstract: |
The diagnosis of metastatic lesion to the jaws is difficult, challenging and is based mainly on histopathology. Distant metastasis of basal cell adenocarcinoma (BCAC) to the mandible from salivary gland tumor is considered rare. A case of mandibular metastasis from parotid BCAC is reported. The use of cytogenetics in the diagnostic work-up is described. Cytogenetic analysis may be used as an additional tool for diagnosis of metastases and is recommended when a metastatic jaw lesion is suspected. |
