Fibrosarcoma of the Mouth – Insights from a Left Buccal Mucosa Case Report
A malignant tumour of the fibroblasts that lacks cellular differentiation is called fibrosarcoma.It has the potential to spread and recur.Fibrosarcomas are uncommon, although they can develop anywhere in the body.The retroperitoneum, thigh, knee, and distal extremities are where they most frequently occur.In the head and neck area, fibrosarcoma is uncommon and accounts for 1% of all cancers.Just 0.05% of all human fibrosarcomas are found in the head and neck area.The oral cavity is home to about 23% of fibrosarcomas, which typically have a dismal prognosis with an overall survival rate of 20-35% during a 5-year period.Here, we report a patient who is 21 years old and has buccal mucosal fibrosarcoma.
