Distant metastasis of malignant tumors in the facial area are rare. They occur both in the soft tissues of the oral cavity and face and skeletal

jaw bones and their diagnosis is not always easy. In planning therapeutic procedures, one must take into account the patient‘s general

health, prognosis and degree of cancer generalization. The authors present their own experience in the diagnosis and therapy of three

cases of oral cancer metastasis with extraoral primary localisation. The histories are accompanied by a summary of available information

on the incidence of metastatic malignant tumors in the orofacial region.

Keywords: distant metastasis, orofatial tumors
