Abstract

Osteosarcoma is the most common primary malignant bone tumor, most commonly occurring in  long  bones  and  rarely  in  the  maxillofacial  region.  The  most  common  signs  and  symptoms  of  osteosarcoma are: pain or paresthesia, rapid growth, inflammation and expansion of the cortical bone, facial asymmetry, nasal obstruction, displacement and mobility of neighboring teeth. The case of a 77-year-old male patient with painful symptoms and obstruction of the left nostril is presented. Upon  evaluation  with  cone  beam  tomography,  the  presumptive  diagnosis  was  Osteosarcoma  corroborated by the incisional biopsy, which categorized it as the chondroblastic subtype.
