Abstract
We report a case of angiosarcoma metastatic to the mandibular gingiva. A 51-year-old man was referred to our department complaining of mandibular gingival swelling. He had been admitted to our hospital with angiosarcoma of the right thigh region. Intraoral examination revealed a deep red mass at the molar region of the right mandibular gingiva. It was elastic soft on palpation. An incisional biopsy was done, and examination of the biopsy specimen revelaed a metastatic angiosarcoma to the mandibular gingiva. Though the tumor temporally responded to radiotherapy and decreased in size, the patient died of general debilitation.
