[Malignant mesenchymal neoplasms of the oromaxillofacial area. The diagnostic problems].
Oral and maxillo-facial mesenchymal malignant neoplasms are rare. They involve nosologic, diagnostic and therapeutic problems. Clinical cases of soft and bone tissue are reported. They share difficulties in clinical, roentgenographic and histopathological diagnosis and often the disagreement between the clinical evidence and the histopathological report. The rule of the immunohistochemistry for a correct characterization of mesenchymal malignant neoplasms and the necessity for correct and early diagnostic definition in order to plain the treatment are emphasized.
