Primary intraosseous carcinoma of the head and neck is rare, and lesions isolated to the anterior maxilla are obviously even more rare. The diagnosis of intraosseous carcinoma can be difficult, and it must be based on strict criteria. We report the case of a 40-year-old man who was referred for definitive treatment of a cancerous lesion of the anterior maxilla. The patient's mass had initially been thought to be a benign odontogenic cyst. The patient was treated with surgery and prosthetic rehabilitation. We describe the clinical presentation, pertinent workup including imaging, and the treatment of this case, and we review the literature.
头颈部原发性骨内癌很罕见，而仅局限于上颌前部的病变显然更为罕见。骨内癌的诊断可能具有挑战性，必须基于严格的标准。我们报告一例40岁男性患者，因上颌前部癌性病变前来接受确定性治疗。患者的肿物最初被认为是良性牙源性囊肿。该患者接受了手术及修复康复治疗。我们描述了该病例的临床表现、包括影像学检查在内的相关检查以及治疗情况，并对文献进行了综述。
