Mandibula metastases are quite rare and account for less than 1% of mandibula malignities. In cases of metastasis to mandibula, patients often appeal with complaints such as swelling in the spine, pain in the teeth with the spine bone, and loss of the teeth. Symptoms of metastatic injury should be cautious due to the possibility of mixing with periodontal diseases and should be taken into account in the distinctive diagnosis of primary bone tumor, osteosarcoma, primary intraoseous squamous carcinoma, ameloblastoma, temporomandibular joint diseases. While the treatment options are surgical and additional chemoradiotherapy, the prognosis is bad and the treatment is usually done for palliative purposes. The story: A 51-year-old woman, who was operated 3 years ago due to rectum adenocarcinoma, applied to our patient clinic with a swelling in the chest. When the patient's cranial magnetic resonance and computer tomography images were studied, in the right mandibula frame, a damage was identified that led to the destruction of the bone that also held the condom. After the patient's incisional biopsy, the histopathological diagnosis was in accordance with the colorectal adenocarcinoma. The patient was sent to the oncological department. The result: the distinctive diagnosis of mandibula lesions should be done very carefully and metastatic tumors should be taken into account. Patients with lung, breast, colorectal cancer and similar tumors in their history should be considered that metastatic tumors may occur in the headache area and tooth pain, tooth loss should be taken into account, after necessary radiological examinations must necessarily be carried out a biopsy.
