title: [Metastasis in submandibular gland from a leiomyosarcoma of the uterus].
abstract: Two general types of metastases should be distinguished in metastatic salivary gland tumors: one of them are tumors originating in the head and neck region, and the other are tumors from distant tumor sites. Distant metastasis affecting the submandibular gland are a rare entity. We report a case of the uterus leiomyosarcoma which metastatised in the submandibular gland.
