Primitive neuroectodermal tumors (PNETs) are relatively rare tumors. Tumors that once would have been diagnosed as Ewing's sarcoma are now often designated as peripheral neuroepithelioma or synonymously PNET. Herein we report the first case of PNET of the mandible in a 6-year-old female who was admitted to the hospital with a two-months history of painless, progressively enlarging lower jaw mass.
原始神经外胚层肿瘤(PNETs)是相对罕见的肿瘤。曾经被诊断为尤因肉瘤的肿瘤现在通常被指定为外周神经上皮瘤或同义的PNET。在此,我们报告首例下颌骨PNET病例,患者为一名6岁女性,因无痛性、进行性增大的下颌肿物2个月病史入院。
