Abstract
Malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor (MPNST) is a rare malignancy of nervous tissue. The oral incidence of this lesion is extremely low. MPNST can occur sporadically or in association with neurofibromatosis. We report a rare intraosseous MPNST in the mandible of a 33-year-old female patient with neurofibromatosis type 1.

World J Clin Cases 2023; 11:5910-5918. [PMID: 37727493 PMCID: PMC10506041 DOI: 10.12998/wjcc.v11.i25.5910] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/27/2023] [Revised: 07/20/2023] [Accepted: 08/08/2023] [Indexed: 09/01/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor (MPNST) is a rare and aggressive soft tissue sarcoma that poses a major diagnostic and therapeutic challenge. CASE SUMMARY We retrospectively reviewed patients with head and neck MPNSTs treated in our hospital from 2000 to 2021. The clinical features, pathological manifestations, treatments, and prognoses were summarized. We also reviewed the literature, focusing on MPNST in the mandible and maxilla. The study population consisted of five women and five men aged 22-75 years (mean age, 49 years). Of the 10 patients, 7 were initial cases and 3 were recurrent cases. All lesions were sporadic. The most common site was the mandible. The most frequently encountered symptoms were a progressive mass and local swelling. Complete or partial loss of trimethylation at lysine 27 of histone H3 (H3K27me3) was evident on staining in four of nine cases (one case was excluded due to lack of tissue for evaluation of loss of H3K27me3). The 2- and 5-year disease-specific survival rates were 86% and 43%, respectively. The average survival time was 64 mo. CONCLUSION MPNST is a highly malignant tumor with a poor prognosis, prone to a high risk of recurrence and distant metastasis. Complete surgical resection is the main treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/PURPOSE Due to the rarity and diversity of primary intraosseous malignancies in jawbones, we aimed to evaluate the clinicopathological features and discuss the findings of our collected cases with the literatures. METHODS Twenty-nine patients (2000-2020) diagnosed with primary central malignancies of jawbones were selected from the database of Oral Pathology Department in our institution. Clinical features, radiographic appearance, and histopathological diagnosis of the 29 cases were analyzed. RESULTS Twenty-nine patients aged between 19 and 84 years (average, 57.4 years) with a male to female ratio of 1.2:1 were included. The most frequent site was the mandibular body and ramus, followed by the posterior maxilla and mandibular symphysis. The most common diagnosis was osteogenic sarcoma (n = 13), followed by odontogenic carcinoma (n = 7), hematologic malignancies (n = 5), salivary gland malignancies (n = 2), and neurogenic sarcomas (n = 2). The most frequent symptoms were swelling, pain, paresthesia of lower lip, and mobile tooth. Radiographically, they usually presented as ill-defined osteolytic to osteoblastic lesions depending on the amount of ossification. Wide excision comprising partial maxillectomy and segmental mandibulectomy were the most common therapeutic methods. CONCLUSION Despite the rarity of primary central malignancies in jawbones, the clinical features may mimic infectious process or benign lesions. Detailed history-taking, clinical and imaging examination and awareness of the patient's signs and symptoms combining with the histopathological inspection are important for early diagnosis and improved prognosis. The current data contributes a useful basis for clinical investigation regarding intraosseous malignancies occurring in the jawbones.

Malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumour of the oral and maxillofacial region-A systematic review. Oral Dis 2021; 28:2072-2082. [PMID: 34333825 DOI: 10.1111/odi.13982] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/15/2021] [Revised: 07/05/2021] [Accepted: 07/27/2021] [Indexed: 11/27/2022]
Abstract
To integrate the available data published on malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumours (MPNST) of the oral and maxillofacial region. Searches in Embase, PubMed, Web of Science and Scopus were conducted for the identification of case reports/case series in English language. The risk of bias was assessed using the Joanna Briggs Institute tool. Outcomes were evaluated by Cox regression and Kaplan-Meier methods. A total of 306 articles were retrieved, 50 of which reporting 57 MPNST were included. The lesion showed a predilection for the mandible (n = 18/31.57%) of middle-aged adults (~40.5 years) with a male/female ratio of 1.1:1. The individuals were mostly symptomatic with a mean evolution time of 9.6 months. Surgical removal plus adjuvant therapy (especially radiotherapy) was the main approach (51.86%). Recurrence was reported in 39.62% of cases. Nodal and distant metastases were identified in 28.26% and 26.66% of cases, respectively. The 2-year cumulative survival rate was 55%. Independent predictors of poor survival were the presence of neurofibromatosis type 1 (p = 0.04) and distant metastases (p = 0.004). The diagnosis of MPNST is challenging due to the variety of its clinical and histopathological presentations. Local aggressiveness and the potential for metastases are common outcomes of this neoplasm.

Primary intraosseous malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor of the mandible: An unusual presentation mimicking a benign lesion. Oral Oncol 2021; 120:105266. [PMID: 33810988 DOI: 10.1016/j.oraloncology.2021.105266] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/12/2021] [Accepted: 03/17/2021] [Indexed: 10/21/2022]
Abstract
The malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor (MPNST) is a rare, aggressive malignant tumor that usually develops in the context of neurofibromatosis type 1. In the oral cavity, these tumors are excelling rare, especially in intraosseous sites. Herein, we report an unusual presentation of intraosseous MPNST affecting the mandible posterior region in a 28-year-old male without neurofibromatosis type 1 discovered as an incidental find on imaging exam. CT scan evaluation showed a solitary, well-defined, round hypodense lesion in the posterior mandibular region extending from tooth 45 to 46. Microscopic evaluation showed a tumor composed of atypical spindle-shaped cells arranged in fascicles and a storiform pattern. Tumor cells were positive for S-100 protein. Epithelial membrane antigen (EMA), pan-cytokeratin AE1/AE3, desmin, alpha-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA), HMB-45, MART-1, MUC4, and CD56 were negative. The diagnosis was low-grade MPNST. The patient underwent wide surgical resection of the tumor. After three years of follow-up, the patient remained with no evidence of recurrence or metastatic disease. When an intraosseous neurogenic tumor is suspected based on radiological characteristics, despite the apparent benign nature, an incisional biopsy is mandatory to rule out malignancy before treatment planning to avoid inadequate conservative treatment.
