Metastatic gastric tube cancer detected in a resected mandibular bone with osteoradionecrosis.

Osteoradionecrosis (ORN) of the jaw is an intractable complication of radiotherapy for head and neck cancer. However, osteolytic lesions are often hard to distinguish from malignancies. We report a rare case of metastatic cancer in a resected mandibular bone after segmental resection for ORN of the jaw.
