The sarcomas of soft parts are malignancies that originate in the connective tissue, starting from the embryonic mesenchyme. Taking into account the existence of new and constant changes in the nature of these tumors, a review of the most recent publications was carried out to deepen in the genetic disorders, the predisposing syndromes and its relationship with sarcomas. It was concluded that the records that describe the identification of these syndromes are still very few as main link in the development of sarcomas.

The clinical case of a 61-year-old patient, with a history of good health, treated at St. Paul’s Milennium Medical Hospital in Ethiopia for presenting, for 2 years, a lesion in the marginal gum, with bulging of the gums, is described. both cortices, which extended from the lower right to the left first premolar, for which it was decided to admit him to the Maxillofacial Surgery Service for study and treatment. It was a rare and large tumor, with extensive lymph node dissemination to levels IV and V in both parts of the neck, so the surgical procedure was performed. The evolution was favorable in the immediate postoperative period and he was discharged from the institution 7 days later, but continued with radiotherapy. And follow-up by outpatient service for 24 months afterwards.

Se realizó un estudio prospectivo, longitudinal y aleatorizado de 29 pacientes con quiste de inclusión epidérmica en la región cervicofacial, no infectados, atendidos en el Servicio de Cirugía Maxilofacial del Hospital Clinicoquirúrgico Docente "Saturnino Lora Torres" de Santiago de Cuba, desde junio de 2011 hasta noviembre de 2012, tratados quirúrgicamente mediante los métodos de incisión lineal mínima o excisión en W, con vistas a comparar los resultados de ambos procederes. Se obtuvo que el tiempo operatorio promedio fue más corto en el grupo de incisión lineal mínima y que los quistes que medían entre menos de 1 y hasta 2 cm, localizados en las unidades estéticas faciales de mayor exigencia, eran mejor tratados con dicho método, lo cual produjo mejores resultados y un índice recurrencia no significativo en relación con la excisión en W
