Abstract:
:An apparently innocuous complaint such as a numb chin may be associated with malignant disease, either as heralding symptom or as a manifestation of metastasis. A series of 15 patients with numbness of the chin is presented in which a malignancy was diagnosed prior to the numbness. The numbness diminished or disappeared in 66% of the patients following either systemic chemotherapy or radiotherapy.
