Malignant, peripheral nerve-sheath tumour of the mandible: report of a case.
A report of an aggressive, peripheral nerve-sheath tumour that presented as a lump on the alveolar mucosa near the mental foramen is presented. Although the tumour was detected in the periphery and appeared to extend centrally, extensive surgery suggested that the tumour had its origins in the infra-temporal fossa.
