Prostate Cancer With Solitary Bone Metastasis in the Mandible

Abstract: A 79-year-old man with prostate cancer found to have a solitary bone lesion in the mandible on initial staging bone scan. The sclerotic lesion had a sunburst appearance on CT. As biopsy was nondiagnostic, the patient underwent segmental mandibulectomy. Postoperative pathology results confirmed as metastasis from prostate cancer.

“…5,6 Solitary bone metastasis from the prostate cancer is extremely rare, with only few reported cases. [7][8][9] Metastases in the appendicular skeleton occur in less than 1% of cases in the absence of coexistent axial skeletal metastases. 10 Our case describes a solitary atypical site of metastasis for prostate cancer patient on 99m Tc-MDP SPECT/CT; moreover, the solitary scapular metastasis is the first presentation.…”
