White Sponge Nevus

Introduction: White Sponge Nevus (WSN) is a leukokeratosis characterized by white lesions of the oral mucosa. These lesions are bilateral, thickened and raised compared to the adjacent mucosa. Their aspect are folded and spongy. It is a benign disorder with asymptomatics lesions which often appear during the childhood or the adolescence. The interest of this case report is that the diagnostic of WSN had been established directly, thanks to the presence of the patient's father. Observation: A twelve years old patient was examined in the unity of the oral mucosa pathology and oro-facials pain, of the oral surgery service of Bordeaux hospital (CHU de Bordeaux, France). He presented typical WSN lesions. His father was examined and presented the same lesions. Discussion: Diagnostic of WSN is mainly a clinical examination. There are a lot of differential diagnosis, and leukoplakia is the principal. In case of doubt about the diagnostic, a histological examination can be done. Nowadays, there is no consensus about the therapeutic. But the lesions are mainly asymptomatics, so any treatment has to be planed. Conclusion: An early WSN diagnosis avoids to patients a non adapted treatment and reassures young patients and their parents.

Primary craniocerebral plasmacytomas are uncommon and represent only 0.7 % of all plasmacytomas. In this case solitary plasmacytoma in the midline frontal head region of the skull and discuss the clinical features and prognosis of this tumor. Plasmacytoma can present as multiple myeloma, solitary plasmacytoma of the bone or extramedullary plasmacytoma. Solitary plasmacytoma is a rare entity that composes of malignant plasma cells and involves the bone to form only one or two lesions without evidence of disease dissemination. It accounts for only 4% of malignant plasma cell tumors. 50 years old male was suffering from plasmacytoma in the frontal head region in our case which is pulsatile. On images showed multiple differential diagnosis but after operation histological examination revealed plasmacytoma. Bangladesh Journal of Neuroscience 2016; Vol. 32 (1): 39-42

Objective: This article describes a case of an Oral Eosinophilic Ulcer (OEU) in an otherwise healthy 31-year-old white woman. Introduction: The importance of reporting this case was the presence of recurrent episodes with lesions appearing in different areas of the oral mucosa, a type of manifestation not commonly associated with this disease. A typical manifestation of OEU occurs as a single ulceration that goes into healing after an incisional biopsy, a procedure usually required for a proper diagnosis of the disease. In spite of trauma being suggested as the main culprit of OEU, the exact pathogenesis mechanism of this disease remains controversial. Case report: The pattern of the present case contradicts the usually common course of the disease, as the patient had experienced many recurrent episodes for almost 2.5 years, with the recurrences occurring even after biopsies performed during some of the relapses. Differential diagnosis included recurrent aphthous stomatitis, recurrent intra-oral herpes, autoimmune disease, Crohn’s disease and malignancy. Conclusion: Fortunately, the patient has been free of any recurrences for 1.5 years since the last biopsy was taken at the time she came to our clinic seeking treatment.

Riga-Fede disease is a rare, benign disorder characterized by reactive ulceration of the oral mucosa associated with repetitive dental traumatism. It was first described in children with neurologic disorders and is very rare in adults. This case report describes the occurrence of a large ulcer of the tongue, resembling squamous cell carcinoma, in an adult with hemiparesis. The lesion cleared after neurologic recovery. This case highlights the importance of considering this disorder in the differential diagnosis of oral mucosal ulcerations.

First Case

Scalp and calvarial masses are common in children and the differential diagnosis is broad. The authors recently cared for a child with an unusual fibro-osseous lesion of the temporal bone that has previously not been described in the pediatric neurosurgery literature. A 10-year-old girl presented with a firm, slowly enlarging protuberant mass arising from the squamous suture of the temporal bone without intracranial extension. The mass was removed en bloc through a temporal craniectomy and cranioplasty was performed. The patient had a smooth postoperative course. Histological examination showed multiple oval osseous islands dispersed throughout a bland fibrous stroma. The pathological diagnosis was “Bullough’s bump,” a rare, benign fibro-osseous neoplasm first described in 1999, and only 8 reported cases appear in the literature. Here the authors report the first case of Bullough’s bump in a child.

Oedema Fluid

Massive ovarian oedema is defined by WHO as formation of tumour like enlargement of one or both ovaries by oedema fluid in the stroma It is a benign lesion with age distribution varying from a neonate at six months of age to postmenopausal women up to 60-years-old. The differential diagnosis are ovarian fibromatosis, ovarian fibroma, sclerosing stromal tumour and ovarian myxoma. The common management of massive oedema of ovary is unilateral salpingo-oophorectomy, as the lesion is mistaken for primary ovarian neoplasm at laparotomy. Diagnosing MOE is of great importance to prevent unnecessary aggressive treatment in young patients to prevent infertility .We report this case of Massive Oedema of Ovary for its uncommonness.

This article reports a case of oral mucosa lesions as the sole manifestation in Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH). This is a very uncommon manifestation of LCH since this disease preferably affects the bones with frequent involvement of the jaws. LCH may also involve other organs, particularly the lungs, liver, lymph nodes, and skin. The highlights of this report are the differential diagnosis, immunohistochemical analysis and, mostly, the therapeutic approach.

Possible Cause

Abstract Tuberculosis (TB) is an epidemic infectious disease that seldom takes an oral form. Because of the still increased incidence of TB in our country, in the differential diagnosis of chronic oral ulcerations, tuberculosis should always be considered. Oral TB is frequently overlooked as a possible cause of oral ulceration. Therefore dentists should be aware of the possible occurrence of TB of the oral cavity.
