Malignant tumors rarely metastasize to the oral cavity and account for about 1% of all oral tumors. Metastasis to soft-tissue of the oral cavity is much rarer than jaw bones. Because of the rarity, metastatic tumors in the oral region are challenging for diagnosis. Primary tumors which metastasize to mouth are the most commonly lung, breast, and kidney. Oral cavity metastases represent distant spread and are associated with poor prognosis with short survival. We present a case of the gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma with metastasis to the oral soft-tissue.
恶性肿瘤很少转移至口腔，约占所有口腔肿瘤的1%。转移至口腔软组织比转移至颌骨更为罕见。由于其罕见性，口腔区域的转移性肿瘤诊断具有挑战性。转移至口腔的原发肿瘤最常见于肺、乳腺和肾脏。口腔转移代表远处扩散，与预后不良及生存期短相关。我们报告一例胃食管交界腺癌转移至口腔软组织的病例。
