Bone metastases commonly occur in patients with lung cancer. However, metastasis from primary lung carcinoma to the bone below the knee and elbow is rarely encountered. We herein describe a man who developed an isolated distal ulnar bone metastasis originating from lung squamous cell carcinoma. A 68-year-old man presented to our orthopedic outpatient clinic for evaluation of a rapidly progressing tumor over his right wrist area. Tenderness with increased local temperature was noted, and the tumor was firm in consistency, oval-shaped, and 7 × 5 cm in size. Magnetic resonance imaging and radiographic imaging revealed an osteolytic tumor in his distal ulnar shaft. A 99m Tc-phosphate bone scan showed that this tumor was isolated and newly observed compared with the previous bone scan findings during initial diagnosis. Bone tumor biopsy confirmed metastatic squamous cell carcinoma. Segmental tumor resection with cementation was subsequently performed. This rare case report of an isolated ulnar metastasis includes detailed descriptions of the clinical, radiographic, and pathological features of the tumor.

Odontogenic carcinosarcoma is a very rare malignant odontogenic tumor, characterized by malignant epithelial and mesenchymal components. Studies have reported several cases of odontogenic carcinosarcoma, mainly in the upper and lower jaws, with malignant clinical manifestations. Herein, we present the case of a 58-year-old woman with odontogenic carcinosarcoma with dentinoid in the left maxilla. The invasion range was large, and the left maxillary molar was missing. Histology revealed odontogenic carcinosarcoma with bidirectional differentiation characteristics and comprising three components: malignant epithelium, malignant interstitium, and dentinoid. The patient subsequently underwent nasal endoscopic sinus tumor resection, and she recovered well after surgery. After a strict 4-year follow-up, to date, there are still no signs of disease or local recurrence. To our knowledge, this is the first reported case of odontogenic carcinosarcoma with dentinoid. Our study describes the clinical, morphological, and immunohistochemical characteristics of this case, and distinguishes it from related diseases.
