| Abstract |
Prostate cancer metastasizing to the mandible is a rare occurrence. This case describes a patient whose presenting symptom was a painless swelling of the left mandible. Radiological investigation demonstrated a lesion within the left mandibular ramus, and subsequent biopsy confirmed the diagnosis of metastatic prostate cancer.
