Sarcomas are rare diseases of the head and neck region, representing around 1% of all malignancies. Amongst them, ameloblastic fibrosarcoma (AFS) is of even greater rarity, with less than 100 cases reported in the literature. Consequently, no standard treatment or guidelines have been made available. Surgery is often performed as primary therapy, but may be limited due to anatomical or functional reasons. We present a case of AFS successfully treated by postoperative radiation therapy. A detailed case study is provided, followed by a review of the English-language literature focusing on the role of radiation therapy.
肉瘤是头颈部的罕见疾病，约占所有恶性肿瘤的1%。其中，成釉细胞性纤维肉瘤（AFS）更为罕见，文献报道的病例不到100例。因此，尚无标准治疗方法或指南。手术通常作为主要治疗手段，但由于解剖或功能原因可能受到限制。我们报告一例通过术后放疗成功治疗的AFS病例。提供了详细的病例研究，随后对聚焦放疗作用的英文文献进行了综述。
