Description
Summary:[Objective:] To discuss the clinical and pathological features, differential diagnosis, treatment and prognosis of low-grade myofibroblastic sarcoma (LGMS), and report a case of LGMS that occurs in children's mandibular gingiva to raise awareness of this disease among clinicians. [Methods:] Analyze the clinical data, treatment, and pathological result of a child with LGMS in the right mandibular gingiva with jaw destruction, and the relevant LGMS at home and abroad were analyzed and summarized. [Results:] Due to a painless mass in the right mandibular gingiva, the patient came to hospital for surgical treatment, and the pathological result was gingival tumor. Recurrence occurred two weeks after surgery, so we did the second enlargement surgery, and the pathological result was LGMS. [Conclusion:] LGMS is a rare tumor derived from mesenchymal tissue, which tends to occur in the oral cavity and has no obvious clinically specific symptoms. It requires histopathological examination to confirm the diagnosis, and it should be distinguished from diseases such as inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor and leiomyosarcoma. Surgical enlargement is usually used clinically and the patient should be followed up for a long time.
