Resumo
Oral cavity is not a common route for metastatic dissemination; metastasis to the oral region may affect soft tissues and jawbones, accounting for approximately 1% of all oral malignant neoplasms. The diagnosis of metastatic lesions to the oral cavity is usually challenging to clinicians and pathologists because of their complexity and rarity. We present a series of 12 metastatic neoplasms to the oral cavity that were detected previously or after the diagnosis of the primary tumor. All tumors were of epithelial origin with primary sites in the esophagus (2 cases), colon (2 cases), bladder, lungs, liver, larynx, skin, uterus, prostate, and adrenal gland, each with one case. The commonest site of the metastatic masses in the oral cavity was the gingiva, frequently presented as a vegetating, friable mass. The clinical examination and histopathologic analysis of the lesions were central to establishing the final diagnosis of the tumors. Metastatic masses to the oral cavity should always be considered as differential diagnosis of benign-looking lesions, especially in patients with previous history of a malignant disease. Biopsy is mandatory to establish an accurate diagnosis.
