Leiomyosarcoma of Mandible: A Diagnostic Dilemma; Case Report and Review of Literature

Abstract

Leiomyosarcoma and its pleomorphic variant are rare entities in the head and neck region. Since they usually present as slow growing, discrete firm, and non-ulcerated painless mass, they seem to be deceptively benign and are thus misdiagnosed. Histopathological and immunohistochemical studies are the ways of getting a definitive diagnosis. Till date surgery has been the primary treatment but effectiveness of radiotherapy/chemotherapy is still questionable. Here, we describe a case of leiomyosarcoma in mandible along with discussion about the ways of diagnosis, its differentiation with its pleomorphic variant and their managements.
