Fibrosarcoma is a malignant neoplasm of the fibroblastic origin. It can occur in any location being the bone extremities the main affected site. Fibrosarcoma in relation to the orofacial region are rare. Occurrences in the mandible are rare with an incidence ranging from 0 to 6.1% of all primary fibrosarcoma of the bone. Radical surgery seems to be the best treatment option to fibrosarcoma. Radiation therapy has been used as adjuvant treatment in unresectable tumors and chemotherapy is only used for palliative treatment. Here is a case of fibrosarcoma in the right posterior mandible in 62 year old man.Keywords
