Metastatic Tumors of Oral cavity

Více o knize

Metastatic jaw lesions arise from various primary cancers, including those of the breast, kidney, and lung, often presenting with nonspecific clinical symptoms and radiographic appearances that mimic other conditions. The mandible is more frequently affected than the maxilla, with potential secondary involvement of the oral mucosa. Accurate diagnosis requires biopsy and thorough investigation of other organs, as multiple metastases are common. Understanding these lesions is crucial for effective treatment, though prognosis remains poor in cases of oral metastasis.
