Primary mucoepidermoid carcinoma of the jaw is a rare lesion, comprising 2-3% of all mucoepidermoid carcinomas reported in literature. Central mucoepidermoid carcinoma of the maxilla is rarer, comprising only 8% of the mucoepidermoid carcinomas found in the jaw.
A 52-year-old man suffered from central mucoepidermoid carcinoma of the right maxilla with cervical metastasis, and underwent partial maxillectomy and neck dissection in our hospital. The diagnosis was confirmed by histopathology, dental orthopantomography, CT, and PET/CT scans.
The man was followed-up regularly and was disease free after 21 months.
Primary central mucoepidermoid carcinoma of the jaw is a rare lesion and radical surgical resection is the preferred treatment.
颌骨原发性黏液表皮样癌是一种罕见病变，占文献报道的所有黏液表皮样癌的2% - 3%。上颌骨中央型黏液表皮样癌更为罕见，仅占颌骨中发现的黏液表皮样癌的8%。
一名52岁男性患有右上颌骨中央型黏液表皮样癌并伴有颈部转移，在我院接受了部分上颌骨切除术和颈部清扫术。通过组织病理学、口腔全景X线片、CT及PET/CT扫描确诊。
该男子接受定期随访，21个月后无疾病复发。
颌骨原发性中央型黏液表皮样癌是一种罕见病变，根治性手术切除是首选治疗方法。
