Abstract

Osteosarcoma is a rare malignancy. It is observed regularly in children and young adults, with discrete predominance in men and an annual incidence of one per one hundred thousand people. It can originate in the bone of the oral cavity, represents only 7% of all osteogenic sarcomas and affects the jaw and maxilla with equal frequency. Of idiopathic etiology in most cases, it has been associated with genetic predisposition, trauma or radiotherapy. The treatment is usually a combination of surgical resection, which includes a wide margin of normal bone, followed by an oncospecific treatment. We present the clinical case of a male patient of 43 years of age with a diagnosis of mandibular osteosarcoma that was treated with surgery in a first phase, then with adjuvant chemotherapy and radiotherapy and control after 12 months without evidence of recurrence.
