metastatic lesions represent 1-8% of all malignant tumors of the mouth and jaws, which are regarded as rare sites of metastases from different primary tumors. metastases in mouth soft tissue are also rare, and within these it is on the gums where they more frequently occur. primary tumors which metastasize to the mouth are most commonly: lung, breast, and kidney. clear cell carcinoma is the mos...

Introduction: Metastatic lesions of the oral cavity are extremely rare, accounting for approximately 1% of all malignant oral tumors. The most common primary sources of metastatic tumors in the oral region are, from the most to the least common, the breast, lung, kidney, bone, and colon. Renal cell carcinoma accounts for nearly 3% of all adult malignancies. It usually metastasizes to the lungs,...

metastasis to the oral region is very rare and accounts for less than 1% of oral malignant tumors. breast, lung, kidney, adrenal, gastro intestinal tract and prostates are most common primary tumors from which metastasis to oral region occur frequently. metastasis from thyroid gland is extremely rare to oral region. we present an unusual case of metastatic follicular carcinoma of thyroid in max...

metastases of internal tumors to the oral cavity are unusual and in most cases involve maxilla and mandible. metastases to the gingival soft tissue are extremely rare. reporting a new clinical case of renal cell carcinoma (rcc) metastasis with an unusual site. metastatic involvement of gingival tissue with renal cell carcinoma is an extremely rare clinical event. it is usually associated with i...

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 ...

OBJECTIVE To present a rare case of breast carcinoma initially presenting as an oral cavity mass. STUDY DESIGN Case report with review of the literature. RESULTS A case is presented of a postmenopausal woman with a remote history of treated breast carcinoma who was declared disease-free 2 years before presentation. She presented with an enlarging vestibule mass consistent with metastatic br...

BACKGROUND Metastatic carcinoma to the jaws and oral region are very rare, representing less than 1% of all oral tumors. Unfortunately, oral metastasis is usually manifestation of an advanced stage of primary cancer, and indicates widespread disease and poor prognosis. MATERIAL AND METHODS In this retrospective study, a total of 2039 patients with history of oral malignant tumor between 1980 ...

lymph node dissection is of prime importance for accurate staging of colorectal carcinomas. since a great number of small lymph nodes are missed in the traditional method, several fat clearing solutions have been introduced for easier detection of smaller lymph nodes. in this study we evaluated the efficacy of a new fat clearing solution so-called lymph node revealing solution (lnrs) in colecto...
