<p>Recurrent Aphthous Stomatitis (RAS) is a disorder in the oral cavity, with a characterized symptom as ulceration, recurrent and very painfull. The etiology is idiopathic, with multifactorial predisposition. Exfoliative cheilitis is a persistent lesion on the lip, with a characterized cracking and desquamative, with crustae and inflammation. An elderly male (72 yrs) suffered with ulcer on his oral cavity, cracking lips and pain on both of his cheeks, skin, since 5 years ago. The pain is recurrent. On the clinical examination, there were some desquamation, both on the skin and vermilion border, whether on the inner lips (labial fold mucosa), there were ulcers with diameter about 1 cm. The laboratory test was within normal limits, except the LED was 40 mm/hour (n:&lt;15). The diagnosis was Recurrent Aphthous Stomatitis (RAS) for the ulcer and Exfoliative cheilitis for the cracking lips. The treatment he received was a gargle liquid, topical corticosteroid and supplement. The skin’s disorder was revered to the skin and genital disease department, for further management. As a dental general practioner, had to be very careful and familiar for every changes that may be occur both in the outer or inner oral cavity. Other disorder that need refferal, had to be done with team work, to the colleague from the right connection.</p>

18538 Background: Oral cavity avascular bone necrosis (ABN) has been recently reported as an emerging serious complication in pts receiving BP for the treatment of hypercalcemia related to MM or metastatic solid tumors. Methods: We report the cases of 6 pts with MM treated initially with pamidronate and later with zoledronic acid (ZA). Results: Pts characteristics : M/F 3/3; mean age 58.4 (46–78); 4 IgG κ,1 γ and 1 κ MM; 5 St IIIA and 1 IIIB; mean history of disease 61.3 mo. (23–103); 5 pts had a relapsing MM refractory to several lines of therapy but 1 pt had received only high dose dexametazone (D); 2 pts had received autologous stem cell transplantation and 1 pt allogenic bone marrow transplantation; mean n.° of BP doses was 41.3 (17–81). At the time of ABN onset all pts were receiving ZA along with, respectively: D (2 pts); cyclophosphamide plus D (1 pt), bortezomib plus D (2 pts) and oral melphalan (1 pt). ABN was localized in 2 pts at alveolar bone of the right maxilla and presented as an inflammation of the gum, followed by a painful bone exposure. In the other 4 pts ABN was localized at mandible and presented as dental abscesses followed in 2/4 pts by cutaneous fistulization. Treatment has included in all pts discontinuation of ZA, antibiotics, chlorhexidine mouthwashes, pain control, minor regional débridement, and bone trimming. In 1 pt a more aggressive surgical approach was attempted at an other Institution and postoperative course was complicated by massive haemorrhage and complete loss of chewing. Four pts dead with progressive disease with a mean overall survival after ABN presentation of 6 mo.; 2 pts are alive after 3 and 4 mo. after ABN presentation; however in all pts ABN significantly worsened quality of life. Conclusions: Oral cavity ABN is a severe complication in refractory MM pts receiving BP. Mechanisms of action of BP that determine a reduction in osteoclastic activity and an accumulation of nonvital osteocytes with microfractures of old mineral matrix appear to play an important role. However other causes may be involved as a long history of disease; an uncontrolled progressive disease; type and doses of previous and present therapies, primarily steroids; status of oral cavity and teeth of pts and possibly the n.° of doses of BP.

Introduction: Extramedullar plasmocytoma (EMP) is a plasma cell disease, such as solitary plasmocytoma of the bone and multiple myeloma. It is developed in the soft tissues. Observation: A 79-year-old patient consulted for a painful tumefaction of the gum associated to a radiolucent area on the right side of the mandible on the panoramic x-ray. After surgical enucleation, histological examination showed that the diagnosis was either an IgA extramedullar plasmocytoma or a multiple myeloma. The spreading assessment eliminated the diagnosis of multiple myeloma. The patient was then treated with radiotherapy. Discussion: EMP is a rare tumoral disease. Few cases described oral localisation. The main differential diagnosis, that must be excluded is multiple myeloma. Transformation in multiple myeloma exists. The first intention treatment is radiotherapy of the lesion. Conclusion: EMP of the oral cavity is very rare. After treatment, follow-up is required to detect second localisation or progression in multiple myeloma.

A three year old female adult albino Python bivittatus weighing 12 kilograms was presented with a chief complaint of right spectacle growth and whitening. The snake also had a respiratory infection which started about 2 weeks prior to being presented. Physical examination showed bubbly nostrils, inflammation on the right eye, inflammation on the right palatum of the oral cavity, and crackling sound during auscultation when exhaling and hissing. The snake was diagnosed with subspectacular abscess and respiratory infection. Spectaculotomy was performed under general and local anesthesia. All abscesses were removed using a sterile sexing probe while continuously flushing the eye. Topical antiseptic was diluted and flushed into the eye before topical antibiotic eye ointment was applied. Post-operative treatment included daily flushing using an intravenous catheter, eye ointment application, and administration of systemic antibiotic and NSAID to treat the co-related respiratory infection. Three weeks after the surgery the snake went through ecdysis, after which the snake regained its appetite and recovery was thereafter significantly improved.

Lipomas are adipose mesenchymal neoplasms. The oral cavity is not commonly affected. representing about0.5% to 5% of all benign oral tumors. The clinical presentation is typically as an asymptomatic yellowish mass.The overlying epithelium is intact and superficial blood vessels are usually evident over the tumour. Although benign in nature their progressive growth may cause interference with speech and mastication due to tumour’s dimension. The present report shows the case of a 52-year old male who presented with a large intraoral lipoma with extension to the right submandibular region.

Despite high cure rates, approximately 20% of patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) have disease relapse. Isolated recurrence in oral cavity is extremely unusual. The aim of this paper is to report a case of an isolated relapse occurred in a child with T-lineage ALL. Clinical picture included swelling and pain in the right upper gingiva of the oral cavity, with no other clinical or hematological alterations. Diagnosis was confirmed by biopsy and immunohistochemical staining. Bone marrow aspiration was normal. Five months later leukemic infiltration of the bone marrow was detected and systemic chemotherapy was reintroduced. This case report highlights the relevance of dental care during and after chemotherapy, not only to treat lesions in the oral cavity resulting from the disease itself or from treatment side effects, but also to detect unusual sites of ALL relapse.

Mandibular First Molar

A 2.5-year-old intact male Irish setter was presented for a draining tract associated with the right mandibular first molar tooth (409). Conscious oral examination yielded two draining tracts associated with the right mandibular first molar tooth. No obvious missing teeth or other gross abnormalities associated with the oral cavity were observed. Upon anesthetized radiographic evaluation, the presence of an unerupted, abnormally positioned, supernumerary premolar tooth was observed. The following article describes the extraction of the right mandibular first molar tooth (409) as well as the unerupted supernumerary premolar tooth with associated supernumerary root and the diagnostic approach taken for this uncommon abnormality.

Epidermal cysts are common skin lesions but they occur very rarely in the oral cavity, especially in the salivary glands. Very few cases have been reported in the literature and, here, we present one such rare case of epidermal cyst in the right parotid gland in a 62-year-old female patient.
