Abstract Aim Ureterosciatic hernia (USH) is an extremely unusual condition, with presentations ranging from asymptomatic, to flank pain, renal failure, septic shock and even obstructive uropathy. Due to its rarity, there are no recommendations on the treatment of USH. We therefore carried out a systemic review of published literature on its management. Method The systemic review was completed using three search terms: “uretero sciatic hernia”, “ureterosciatic hernia” and “ureteric sciatic hernia” on Healthcare Databases Advanced Search, producing 224 potential papers. This was narrowed down to 42 papers after using the PRISMA guidelines. All selected papers included a case report of USH, as well as the investigation and management in English only. Result We report a case of an 85-year-old female who was investigated for weight lost with Computed Tomography(CT), which showed an incidental finding of USH. She was managed conservatively after she denied any symptoms and had no hydronephrosis. Abdominal pain was the most common presentation of USH(64%), whilst only 9.5% were found incidentally. 79% of all patients had a CT scan which showed the pathognomonic “curlicue” sign. 55% of all patients had hydronephrosis. Half of all patients had surgical intervention, from open repair to laparoscopic to robotic(9.5% of all management)with no known mortality. Conservatively management(16.6%) was reserved for asymptomatic/poor surgical candidates, and were more likely to be followed up compared to surgical patients(55.5%vs47.6%). Conclusions Our case is of an incidental USH managed conservatively, with a literature review emphasising similarities to our case and the different management options.

General Dental Practitioner

This case report describes the management of a patient following the incidental finding of multiple odontogenic keratocysts on an orthopantomogram by the patient's general dental practitioner (GDP). The cysts were extensive and had caused considerable displacement of the unerupted permanent teeth. Following marsupialisation, the teeth were aligned orthodontically. This article describes the features of odontogenic keratocysts, the associated Gorlin syndrome, and the management options available. The importance of close collaboration between the Oral and Maxillofacial Surgical and Orthodontic teams is highlighted. CPD/Clinical Relevance: Odontogenic keratocysts are benign but locally aggressive jaw cysts. They occur most commonly as solitary lesions in the jaws of healthy individuals, but may also be a feature of Gorlin syndrome. In young patients there is potential for severely displaced teeth to improve their position spontaneously and erupt.

Osteolytic Lesions

The purpose of this article was to present a case report of 11–year old female patient with a large osteolytic mandibular lesion which healed after endodontic treatment. The patient was referred for radio diagnostics due to an incidental finding of a large osteolytic lesion of the area of the left lower first and second premolars in the panoramic radiograph taken before orthodontic treatment. CBCT was performed and the patient asked to have teeth 33-35 treated by endodontics before surgery. The patient missed the surgical appointment and when she reappeared several months later, the lesion showed signs of healing thus surgery were aborted. The presented case testifies to the observation that even large osteolytic lesions can heal after endodontic treatment without surgical approach.

Natural Conception

Heterotopic pregnancy is the condition where both intrauterine and ectopic pregnancy are present. It rarely occurs after natural conception, but is more common with assisted reproductive techniques, when more than one embryo is transferred. Quadruplet heterotopic pregnancy is exceedingly rare. Methods: A literature review was conducted aiming to highlight the diagnosis difficulties and the management options in heterotopic quadruplet pregnancies. Results: Nine relevant studies were identified by researching PubMed up to 2021 for “heterotopic quadruplet pregnancy”, “quadruplet intrauterine and ectopic pregnancy”, “synchronous intrauterine and ectopic pregnancy”. Conclusions: In this paper, we present a case of heterotopic quadruplet pregnancy and address the difficulty in diagnosing this condition and make formal recommendations.

Paraoesophageal Hernia

This is a rare case report of acute pancreatitis secondary to a massive incarcerated paraoesophageal hernia. The pathogenesis resulted from obstruction of the distal pancreatic duct after displacement of the pancreatic head and body into the thorax as part of a Type IV paraoesophageal hernia. Although this condition is rare, the patient made steady progress following laparotomy and open repair of hernia. She made a good recovery after prompt therapy, therefore, this report can be a guide to the diagnosis and treatment of similar conditions.

Infantile malignant osteopetrosis is a hereditary bone disease with intense positive balance of body calcium. Osteopetro-rickets is a very rare paradoxical association of infantile osteopetrosis and rickets. This is a case report of an infant with osteopetro- rickets. He presented with severe anaemia, splenomegaly, hepatomegaly and clinical signs of rickets. The clinical, biochemical and skeletal survey showed osteopetrosis and rickets. We also describe the pathophysiologic mechanism and various management options. Key words: Osteopetrosis; Osteopetro-rickets; Rickets DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3126/jnps.v32i1.5292 J. Nepal Paediatr.

Unerupted Teeth

An ameloblastoma is a benign, yet locally aggressive odontogenic tumour. The vast majority (80%) of ameloblastomas arise in the mandible, and unicystic ameloblastomas are commonly found in relation to an unerupted lower third molar. We present the case of a 39-year-old patient with an incidental finding of an enlarged dental follicle around an unerupted lower third molar that progressed to an extensive unicystic ameloblastoma. This ameloblastoma was decompressed and marsupialized before enucleation to reduce the risk of pathological fracture due to the extensive size of the tumour. CPD/Clinical Relevance: The case is relevant to general dental practitioners when considering monitoring dental follicles of unerupted teeth because the enlarged dental follicle described progressed to an extensive odontogenic tumour.
