Abstrakt: Spindle cell sarcoma (SCS) is a malignancy, with the most recent Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) data citing a total of 250 reported cases occurring in the head and neck. Of these cases, none originated in the maxillofacial hard tissue. The diagnosis of SCS requires its differentiation from other sarcomas and spindle cell neoplasms. Therefore, a comprehensive review to reinforce its inclusion in oral and maxillofacial surgeons' differential diagnosis for osseous neoplastic pathology is desired. In the present case report, we have described a recurrent case of Maxillary Undifferentiated Spindle cell sarcoma in a 11 year old male child post chemoradiotherapy which was excised intoto successfully.
