文摘

Two cases presented for weight loss and a large mandibular swellings: one involving the caudal aspect of the left horizontal mandible and the other presented for a soft tissue swelling on the labial mucosa adjacent to 304. Histopathology of both masses diagnosed fibrosarcomas. Case 2 underwent a left subtotal rostral hemimandibulectomy that proved to be successful in complete resection of the fibrosarcoma with a comfortable and cosmetic postoperative outcome. Computed tomography assessment of tumor penetration into deeper tissues can be achieved, thus facilitating complete surgical excision. Postoperative complications are few, and the cosmetic and clinical outcome is favorable.
