概要 Fibrosarcoma is a malignant neoplasm composed of fibroblasts that produce collagen and elastin. It may arise either in the soft tissue or in bone, with the latter comprising 20% of all cases. The osseous origin of fibrosarcomas has been debated since 1940, when Ewing named the entity “fibroblastic sarcoma,” but the concept has been generally accepted. Fibrosarcomas in the masticator space can be diagnostically challenging. A total of 76 cases of fibrosarcoma in the jaw exist in the English-language literature from before 2007. Here, we report a case of primary fibrosarcoma in the mandible of a 33-year-old woman with symptoms and radiologic signs mimicking temporomandibular disorder. We also present a literature review of fibrosarcomas in the jaw.
