metastatic tumors account for 1% of all oral malignancies. metastasis to jaw bones is common, particularly in the mandible, rare in the oral soft tissues, and account for only 0.1% of oral malignancies. the majority of metastatic cases (70%) reported in the literature have primary tumors located in the lung, breast, kidney, and colon. metastasis is a biological complex process that involves det...

abstract   soft tissue sarcomas of the oral cavity are uncommon malignancies those of smooth-muscle origin are extremely rare. leiomyosarcomas of the tongue are very rare. either surgery or radiation therapy with or without chemotherapy are the treatment modalities which improve prognosis. we are presenting a 32-year-old man with leiomyosarcoma of the lateral aspect of the oral tongue with neck...

Colorectal carcinoma is a common malignancy in India as well as in world. Inspite of its high metastasizing ability to various organs and lymph node, orbital metastasis is exceptional. Very few cases have been reported in the world literature. We report orbital metastasis in a case of moderately differentiated rectal adenocarcinoma in a 58-year male patient from India in 2015. We want to focus ...

the paranasal sinuses are known to be a rare location for metastasis. renal cell carcinoma (rcc) is the most frequent primary tumor to metastasize to the sinonasal region, followed by lung and breast cancer. in particular, clear cell type rcc, which represents approximately 85% of rccs, is characterized by early metastasis, and it sometimes spreads to unusual sites (1, 2). metastatic tumors in ...

although acrometastases are rare but clinically they are considered important. their etiology is quite different from the metastases to other sites; bronchogenic carcinoma is by far the most frequent case. the prognosis is always similar to metastatic bronchial cancer with an average survival of three months. treatment may involve distal digital amputation or antalgic radiotherapy. the main dif...

Colorectal carcinoma is one of the most common causes of cancer-related death, worldwide. Recently, due to the introduction of novel imaging and therapeutic techniques, five-year survival of patients has increased. However, distant metastasis is still expected in half of the patients. Colorectal cancer tends to target the abdominal cavity, liver, lungs, and bones as the common sites of metastas...

abstract malignant spermatic cord tumor is rare. spermatic cord metastasis is less common and the prognosis of these patients is poor. here we report a case of unilateral spermatic cord metastasis from advanced gastric cancer. a 57-year-old male underwent total gastrectomy due to advanced gastric cancer. three years later, a painless hard palpable mass in the left inguinal area developed and th...

Introduction: Colon adenocarcinoma is one of the foremost causes of cancer mortality. Oral metastasis of colon adenocarcinoma is, however, rare and indicates an end-stage disease process.   Case Report: We report a case of a 69-year-old female with a gingival mass diagnosed with colon adenocarcinoma and liver metastasis after one year. A swelli...

the brain is a rare site for metastasis in most extracranial pediatric solid tumors, including wilm’s tumor. outcome for these patients are generally dismal. very few cases have been reported to have good survival even after therapy. this paper reports a case of stage iv wilm’s tumor with lung metastases in a patient who developed a solitary brain metastasis five months after completion of chem...
