Abstract: Mandibular metastases are rare, accounting for approximately 1% of all malignant tumors of the oral cavity. The most frequent primary tumors are lung in men and breast in women. We report the case of a female patient, aged 60 years, with no particular pathological history. She presented with a left mandibular swelling, aesthetically discomforting. The examination of the cervical region showed an anterior cervical swelling, A cervical ultrasound was ordered and showed a multiheteronodular goiter with the largest nodule. The CT scan showed a tumor process in the left masticatory space, hypervascularized and completely lysing the ramus of the mandible, Manuscript without author details. The final anatomopathological examination concluded to a vesicular thyroid carcinoma with mandibular metastasis. The decision of the multidisciplinary consultation meeting was to perform a total thyroidectomy with bilateral mediastino- recurential with left hemimandibulectomy was indicated.
