AbstractTwo cases of bilateral moderate to severe sensorineural hearing loss due to oral administration of metronidazole are reported. There has been only one case report of deafness following metronidazole therapy in the world literature. The hearing loss recovered gradually in a period of four to six weeks following withdrawal of drug and oral steroid therapy. The possible mechanism of ototoxicity is discussed. Awareness by the treating physician of ototoxicity due to any drug is stressed.

A case is presented of dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans of the gluteal region with metastasis to the lung appearing 7 years after wide excision of the primary lesion. The world literature is reviewed. The clinical and pathologic features of dermatofibrosarcoma are reviewed and treatment is discussed, with the aim of emphasizing the need for long-term follow-up examination of lymph nodes and for metastases following wide excision of these lesions.

AbstractObjective:We present an extremely rare case of congenital cholesteatoma in identical twins.Method:Case report of congenital cholesteatoma in identical twins, and a literature review, are presented.Results:Both cases presented to the ENT out-patient clinic, but with different clinical pictures. Both were managed surgically.Conclusion:Congenital cholesteatoma presents as a whitish mass in the middle ear, with an intact tympanic membrane. It is a rare entity comprising between 3.7 and 24 per cent of total cholesteatoma cases. The key to its diagnosis is the absence of previous ear infection, ear surgery and local trauma. To our best knowledge, this paper represents the first report in the world literature of congenital cholesteatoma in identical twins.

AbstractObjective:We report an extremely rare case of congenital cholesteatoma affecting the occipital bone.Methods:We present a case report, plus a review of the world literature on similar lesions.Results:This case report describes the presentation and treatment of a congenital cholesteatoma arising in an apparently unique location within the occipital bone, with no effect on middle-ear structure or function. The different imaging characteristics of this lesion are described and illustrated. The discussion centres on the differentiation of this lesion from intradiploic epidermoid cysts, more commonly described in the neurosurgical literature. The possible methods of pathogenesis are discussed, along with treatment suggestions.Conclusion:Congenital cholesteatomas and intradiploic epidermoid cysts are indistinguishable both histologically and radiologically, and would appear to be the same disease.

Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumor (GIST) is a rare soft tissue tumor and a GIST arising from the mesocolon is even rarer and sparsely reported in the world literature. Herein we report one such case that we encountered in our clinical practice and review the literature on the management of such a rare case.

AbstractObjective:We report two extremely rare cases of polyps from unilateral accessory middle turbinates, one of which coexisted with a polyp from an inferomedially projecting, pneumatised, secondary middle turbinate.Methods:Case report and literature review concerning accessory middle turbinate and secondary middle turbinate.Results:Two patients presented with unilateral nasal obstruction. In both patients, nasal endoscopy revealed polypoid masses originating from the middle meatus. Paranasal sinus computed tomography and histopathological analysis confirmed the presence of polyps originating from an accessory middle turbinate and secondary middle turbinate, which were resected uneventfully via endoscopic sinus surgery.Conclusion:To our knowledge, this is the first report in the world literature of polyps originating from a unilateral accessory middle turbinate and secondary middle turbinate. Pre-operative recognition of these rare anatomical variations is of particular importance in avoiding intra-operative complication.
