Background: Perifolliculitis capitis abscedens et suffodiens (PCAS) is a suppurative process that involves the scalp, eventually resulting in extensive scarring and irreversible alopecia. This condition often presents in males of African American origin. Objective: This article describes the clinical presentation, diagnosis, and treatment of an Aboriginal Canadian male suffering from PCAS. A literature review on the etiology, pathology, differential diagnosis, and management is also discussed. Conclusion: Careful analysis of the pathology and clinical presentation can aid in the timely diagnosis and management of this challenging condition. The clinician dealing with patients suffering from PCAS has several treatment options available to help successfully manage patients with straightforward or recalcitrant disease.

Although palatal myoclonus has been extensively described (Deuschl, Mischke, Schenck, Schulte-Mönting, & Lücking, 1990), little is known about pharyngo-laryngo-palatal myoclonus (PLPM), a complex and rare subset of head and neck myoclonic disease. To date, there have been only 5 cases of PLPM reported (Drysdale, Ansell, & Adeley, 1993; Gupta, Samant, & Katiyar, 1972; Ito, Kimura, & Shibasaki, 1993; Juby, Shandro, & Emery, 2014; Toland, Porubsky, Coker, & Adams, 1984), and no review of the diagnosis and management of this disease has been performed. Early identification of the etiology of PLPM is critical and can aid in appropriate management, referrals, and subsequent treatment. This article presents a case of PLPM along with a review of the literature relevant to PLPM including key elements of diagnosis and treatment.

Choledochal cysts are an anatomical conundrum as they present with nonspecific symptoms generally delaying diagnosis and treatment. Its lag time remains critical, as cholangiocarcinoma, a fatal sequelae, contributes to its morbidity and mortality. Herein, we present a case of a type 1A choledochal cyst. We hope that its review on presentation, classification system, diagnosis, and management prevent complications and cataclysmic results.
