Abstract

Malignant neoplasms, which originated from organs other than those of the head and neck, metastatic to the oral and maxillofacial region are rare.<BR>Three cases of metastatic carcinoma of the oral and maxillofacial regions were reported.<BR>Case 1 was a 66-year-old woman with adenocarcinoma of the common bile duct which metastasized to the maxillary gingiva. Case 2 was a 61-year-old man with squamous cell carcinoma of the esophagus which metastasized to the bilateral submandibular lymph nodes. Case 3 was a 74-year-old man with adenocarcinoma of the lung which metastasized to the tongue. Death usually comes in only a few months after the discovery of the metastatic lesions.
