Due to paucity of reported cases, clinical appearance is unclear. Present study reports a mandibular odontogenic carcinosarcoma in a 33 years-old male with a history of painless mass in the anterior of mandible. The histopathological examination demonstrated a biphasic malignant neoplasm with both epithelial and mesenchymal component malignant features. There were follicles and strands of odontogenic epithelium, which were lined peripherally by ameloblast-like cells. Mesenchyme of tumor was highly cellular resembling dental papilla. Partial mandibular resection, consisting wide surgical excision with immediate reconstruction was accomplished.
