Distant metastasis to the jaws, including the maxilla or mandible, is very rare. Although the mandible is the preferred sight of these rare metastases, it is extremely rare for oral cavity malignancies to present as pathological mandibular fractures. Here, we present a case of esophageal adenocarcinoma metastasizing to the mandible, and the first reported case presenting with a pathological mandibular fracture secondary to esophageal adenocarcinoma. We also review the 9 other reported cases of metastatic esophageal adenocarcinoma to either the maxilla or mandible.
远处转移至颌骨，包括上颌骨或下颌骨，非常罕见。尽管下颌骨是这些罕见转移瘤的好发部位，但口腔恶性肿瘤表现为病理性下颌骨骨折极为罕见。在此，我们报告一例食管腺癌转移至下颌骨的病例，这也是首例报道的继发于食管腺癌的病理性下颌骨骨折病例。我们还回顾了其他9例已报道的上颌骨或下颌骨转移性食管腺癌病例。
