Area of Science:

Oncology
Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery
Pathology

Background:

Liposarcomas are malignant tumors originating from adipose tissue.
Mandibular liposarcomas are exceptionally rare, often reported in limited case studies.
Optimal management necessitates a multidisciplinary strategy including surgery, radiation, and systemic therapies.

Purpose of the Study:

To report a rare case of well-differentiated myxoid liposarcoma in the anterior mandible.
To highlight the challenges in surgical reconstruction following tumor resection.
To emphasize the importance of a multidisciplinary approach for rare oral tumors.

Main Methods:

Case presentation of a 54-year-old male with a mandibular mass.
Diagnostic biopsy confirming well-differentiated myxoid liposarcoma.
Surgical resection of the tumor with primary reconstruction.

Main Results:

Successful resection of the mandibular liposarcoma was achieved.
Primary reconstruction addressed the surgical defect.
The case adds to the limited literature on mandibular liposarcomas.

Conclusions:

Mandibular liposarcomas require a specialized, multidisciplinary treatment plan.
Surgical expertise is vital for successful tumor removal and reconstruction.
Further research and case reporting are needed for this rare entity.
