Abstract
Metastasis of osteogenic sarcoma to the mandible is extremely rare. A case of mandibular metastasis of an osteogenic sarcoma of the left fibula is presented. The patient, a 17-year-old Japanese girl, was suffering from a metastatic gingival tumor, 3 by 5 cm. in size, with ulceration. Eventually, there were multiple metastases not only to the mandible but also to the thoracic vertebrae, lumbar vertebrae, sacrum, zygomatic bone, clavicle, sternum, humerus, rib, femur, tibia, lung, and meninges.Entities:
