This case study highlights an intraoral lesion in an elderly patient. Delayed treatment due to patient factors and poor health led to disease progression and a fatal outcome.

Area of Science:

  • Oral pathology
  • Oncology
  • Radiology

Background:

  • This report details a rare intraoral lesion in an 85-year-old female.
  • The lesion was located on the mandibular alveolar crest in an edentulous area.

Observation:

  • Diagnosis was confirmed via biopsy.
  • Gallium and CT scans proved effective for noninvasive disease staging.
  • Treatment initiation was postponed due to patient preference, comorbidities, and intolerance to therapies.

Findings:

  • Delayed treatment significantly contributed to disease progression.
  • The patient's advanced age and poor health status complicated management.
  • The intraoral lesion ultimately proved fatal.

Implications:
