    Abstract Introduction: Mucinous adenocarcinoma (MAC) is a rare type of cancer in which more than 50% of the tumor is composed of extracellular mucin and malignant epithelial cells. MACs account for only 1.8% of all breast cancer cases. Most breast cancers present as localized diseases and are well-differentiated. Breast MAC has a better 5- and 10-year survival rate than ductal and lobular carcinomas. Distant metastasis in breast MAC is rare, especially in the oral cavity. Only 1% of all oral malignancies present with metastases to the oral cavity. The bony structures are more involved than the soft tissues. Involvement of the oral soft tissue is rare, accounting for less than 0.1% of oral metastases.
    Case description: This report describes a rare case of mucinous breast adenocarcinoma with metastasis to the mandibular molar region. Diagnosis was established based on anamnesis, clinical presentation, tumor biopsy, computed tomography, mammography, and core biopsy of the breast tumor. The patient was sent to the oncology committee for breast disease where chemotherapy was indicated.
    Discussion: The clinical presentation of oral metastasis is not pathognomonic, and pyogenic granuloma, periodontal abscesses, sarcomas, and squamous carcinoma must be considered in the differential diagnosis. This is a rare case of oral metastasis of breast MAC, which was indicated for detection of the primary tumor.

    Abstract Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is the eighth most common type of cancer in the world. Knowledge of prognostic factors of survival in OSCC is key. Several clinical and pathological prognostic factors have been investigated to develop a prognostic model of survival for patients with oral cancer. The present study focused on the association between pathological tumor volume (PTV) and overall survival time in patients with OSCC, regardless of cervical nodal status. The present study was a prospective study and covered 65 consecutive patients who received surgical treatment for oral cancer. The PTV was calculated according to dimensions of the postoperative specimen. Other pathological parameters as perineural and perivascular tumor spreading and extra-nodular propagation were also determined. The data were analyzed using the IBM SPSS 25.0 software. Cox PH regression model was built to analyze association between the PTV and survival time. Survival time was defined as the period from surgery to a target event or last contact. The results of the present study showed that PTV >4.24 cm

    Abstract Introduction/Objective. Genetic aberrations and environmental factors are known to play an important role in oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). The aim of the study was to clarify the association of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) gene polymorphism rs1468727 with overall survival (OS) in patients with OSCC. Methods. The study comprised a total of 61 patients diagnosed with OSCC. The follow-up period for each patient was three years from the date of surgery and during that period their genotypes for rs1468727 polymorphism of the EGFR gene were identified using real-time polymerase chain reaction. Binary logistic regression was used to investigate the influence of various variables on survival. Additionally, the χ2 test of independence and Man–Whitney U test were done to examine the interplay between two categorical variables and two independent samples. Results. Two variables demonstrated a statistically significant influence on OS: the TNM Classification of Malignant Tumors (TNM) stage and EGFR genotype. At the end of the follow-up period, 39 patients survived, with a noteworthy observation that more than half of the survivors had the EGFR rs1468727 CC genotype. The distribution of CC and CT genotypes was equal (χ2 = 0.397, df = 2, p = 0.820) among patients who deceased, indicating that no statistically significant correlations were found between OS and demographic or tumor-related characteristics. Conclusion. EGFR rs1468727 homozygote (genotype CC) and TNM stage showed statistically significant influence on OS in the follow-up period. This study highlights the potential significance of homozygote EGFR rs1468727 CC in assessing the prognosis and treatment outcomes of patients undergoing surgery for OSCC.

    Abstract Solitary fibrous tumor (SFT) is a rare tumor occurring in pleura or extrapleural areas. The tongue is infrequently affected, in less than 25 published cases. A female patient, 35 years of age, noticed an oval mass in the posterior dorsal part of the tongue. The operated mass was nodule, 10 mm in size, sharply circumscribed, rather firm. The histology shows uniform CD34 positive spindle tumor cells. The diagnosis of benign SFT of the tongue was made.

    Abstract Introduction. The position and prominence are the reasons why the lower jaw is one of the most commonly injured facial bones. Material and Methods. A retrospective study was conducted to analyze medical records of patients who had been treated at the Department of Maxillofacial and Oral Surgery in the period from January 1st, 1998 to December 31st, 2012. These data included patients’ age and gender, mechanism of injury, anatomic localization of the fracture, associated injuries and treatment of fractures. Results. Out of 630 treated patients, 531 were men (84.3%) and 99 were women (15.7%). The highest incidence of the lower jaw fractures was found in the age group 21-30 years (36.2%) and the lowest in the age group over 70 years (1.1%). The most common causes of injuries were physical assault (47.3%), followed by traffic accidents (24.3%) and falls (20.8%). Most patients referred to our Department were treated non-surgically 436 (69.2%), 165 of them (26.2%) were treated surgically, whereas in 29 patients (4.6%) none of the above treatments was performed. Discussion and Conclusion. This study has shown that fractures of the lower jaw are mainly found in men aged 21-30 years. The obtained statistical data could certainly be used to establish the health system that would allow better prevention of these injuries, and the possibility of an adequate and effective treatment modality.

    Abstract Introduction. Due to its contents and relations with neighboring regions, the infratemporal fossa has a great clinical significance. Primary tumors of this region, both benign and malignant, are rare, but they do require surgical treatment, which is determined by the size and localization of the tumor. Case Report. The paper presents the case of a 72-year-old female patient who was referred to hospital for paresthesia in the left half of the face after having been found to have a tumor of left infratmeporal fossa by imaging methods. The tumor was completely removed by transfacial-transzygomatic approach and, according to histopathological findings, it was a schwannoma. The postoperative course was without complications and the patient did not have any discomforts at the check-up a month later. Conclusion. In addition to the accurate diagnosis, the success rate of the surgical treatment of tumors depends on the appropriate surgical approach to ensure the complete removal of the tumor while preserving the content of the infratemporal region.

    Abstract Introduction. Eagle’s syndrome is defined as elongation of the styloid process or the stylohyoid ligament mineralization complex which consist of styloid process, stylohyoid ligament and lesser horn of hyoid bone. It is a rare entity, is not commonly suspected in clinical practice. It is characterized by recurrent facial and throat pain, dysphagia, odynophagia, parapharingeal foreign body sensation, otalgia and neck pain. Eagle’ş syndrome can be treated conservatively (lacing local anesthetic into the styloid process and stylomandibular ligament attachment) or surgically. Its pathogenesis and threatment modalities are still being debated while different theories have been presented. Case report. The two traditional surgical approaches to styloidectomy (removal of the elongated portion of the styloid process) were presented the intraoral approach and the extraoral approach. We presented two cases (49 years and 34 years old males), with bilateral and unilateral elongated styloid process. The surgical treatment included unilateral right side stiloidectomy by intraoral approach in the first case and right styloidectomy by extraoral approach in the second case. In both eases post-operative course passed regularly with no complaints at regular postoperative control. Conclusion. Surgical techniques for treatment of Eagle’s syndrome have many advantages and disadvantages. We believe that the length of the styloid process or the calcified ligament is a decisive parameter for the selection of techniques and approach.

    Abstract Introduction. Li-Fraumeni syndrome (LFS) is a very rare familial disease with the predisposition to the development of malignant tumors, such as osteosarcoma, breast cancer, brain neoplasm, leukemia, and adrenal tumors. Inheritance is autosomal dominant and is caused by heterozygous mutations in the p53 gene. The diagnosis is based on clinical criteria: a person under the age of 45 years suffering from sarcoma, the closest relative younger than 45 years diagnosed with cancer and a relative of the first or second degree, which is up to 45 years, was diagnosed with cancer and was diagnosed with sarcoma at any age. Case report. The presented family with three members diagnosed with malignant disease typical for LFS suggests the need to carefully follow those diagnosed with LFS related tumor. A 24-yearold man diagnosed and treated for osteosarcoma of the maxilla died in the first year. His younger brother was submitted to surgery due to osteosarcoma of the mandible three years later, and a year later in his 24 year he had no signs of locoregional recurrence. Their mother was operated in 1996 for glioblastoma multiform brain cancer and ductal carcinoma, and died two years later at the age of 33. Conclusion. The presented family highlights the need for careful examination, inspection and notification of the risks of family members diagnosed with LFS related tumors.
