title: [Osteosarcoma of the jaw. Report of a case and review of the literature].
abstract: A maxilla osteosarcoma with a clinico, radiologic and pathologic (optic and electronic microscopy) study is presented. The late admission of the patient to a specialized centre and inadequate dental extraction reduced the possibility of making an early diagnosis see the tumour reached the inoperable stage. It is to be noted the importance of an early diagnosis as the only way to the effective therapy.
