“…Lung adenocarcinoma is the most common primary solid tumour associated with this unusual entity, followed, respectively, by colorectal carcinomas and malignant melanomas 9 10. Generally speaking (and more specifically in the case of colorectal adenocarcinomas), the metastatic synovial involvement is usually monoarticular and the most commonly affected joint is the knee, although the involvement of other joints such as hips,11–13 temporomandibular joints (TMJs)14 or shoulders10 has also been reported. Clinically, the usual presentation is a week or month-long history of joint pain, swelling and stiffness of the articulation and it is common to find on physical examination signs of an intra-articular effusion9 11 as was noted in our case.…”

“…However, there are always exceptions to every rule. MacAfee14 reported the case of a newly diagnosed patient with mCRC with a synovial metastasis to the TMJ who survived 12 months after initial diagnosis following radiotherapy and debulking surgery of the right TMJ. This seems to be the longest survival reported for a patient with mCRC with synovial metastasis in the literature.…”

“…Cita como exemplo os ameloblastomas, os quais podem destruir o tecido ósseo, entretanto a dor não é queixa típica dos pacientes.Clark e Ram (2017), também em artigo de revisão sobre dor orofacial no câncer de faringe ou orofaringe, mostram que a dor pode ser o sintoma inicial e que pode estar associada à invasão perineural direta dos nervos periféricos ou ainda ser decorrente da disseminação de lesão intracraniana. A dor como sintoma inicial nos cânceres de boca e orofaringeMacAffe et al (1993) relataram um caso raro de dor causada por metástase na região de cabeça e pescoço decorrente de câncer de cólon intestinal. Observaram que a dor foi o primeiro sintoma da metástase, mesmo antes da evidenciação radiográfica da doença.Bonica (1994) observa que a dor é menos frequente nos tumores glandulares e nos linfomas, que apresentam crescimento tecidual, do que nos tumores que infiltram nos tecidos e ulceram, como no carcinoma epidermóide 2009a;2009b.…”
