Abstract
Osteosarcoma is known for its slow growing nature. It is a rare pathology with characteristic lumpy pathosis of bones. It is mostly neglected/not noticed in the initial stages by the patient. In this case report, we present a case of a 23 years old female who was diagnosed initially to have aneurismal bone cystor dentigerous cyst on clinical examination and cement-ossifying fibroma on a first in conclusive biopsy. Patient presented with biopsy report done else where which was in conclusive necessitating us to do a repeat biopsy. The biopsy report done in our institute gave a diagnosis of low grade osteosarcoma and in view of that we changed the treatment plan to a more aggressive approach. With this case report we would like to emphasize on a correct biopsy report to start treatment and also we discuss optimal management of head and neck osteosarcoma especially mandibular osteosarcoma.
