The article reports on the clinical case of a patient with a diagnosis of "Stafne cyst", who was treated in the oncology department No. 8 of the Pavlov PSPbSMU. The features of differential diagnosis and diagnostic measures necessary to clarify the diagnosis are given. The situations when it is possible to avoid additional traumatic tests, as well as indications for the choice of surgical intervention or the possibility of refusing it, are analyzed. The presented data can be useful when creating algorithms for the diagnosis and treatment of a Staph cyst and making recommendations on the timing of treatment.

The aim of this paper is to report the clinical case of a 3-year and 7-month-old male child with microcephaly who had multiple eruption cysts, and to discuss the adopted procedures. The diagnosis of eruption cyst was concluded based on the clinical and radiographic characteristics. The treatment proposed was a surgical incision of the eruption cysts with the patient under general anesthesia. However, due to health reasons, the patient could not have the procedure performed, and, after four months, seven of the eight eruption cysts had regressed with teeth eruption; therefore, no surgical intervention was needed. Regarding the remaining eruption cyst, the therapy adopted was his mother monitoring the condition. It is possible to personalize eruption cyst treatment by monitoring the lesion until its eventual spontaneous disappearance, without any type of intervention.

Objective: The aim of this paper is to describe the progressive changes of chronic cluster headaches (CHs) in a patient who is being treated by a multimodal approach, using pharmacology, neurostimulation and physiotherapy. Subject: A male patient, 42 years of age was diagnosed with left-sided refractory chronic CH by a neurologist in November 2009. In June 2014, the patient underwent a surgical intervention in which a bilateral occipital nerve neurostimulator was implanted as a treatment for headache. Methods: Case report. Results: Primary findings included a decreased frequency of CH which lasted up to 2 months and sometimes even without pain. Besides this, there were decreased levels of anxiety, helplessness (PCS subscale) and a decreased impact of headache (HIT-6 scale). Bilateral pressure pain thresholds (PPTs) were improved along with an increase in strength and motor control of the neck muscles. These improvements were present at the conclusion of the treatment and maintained up to 4 months after the treatment. Conclusions: A multimodal approach, including pharmacology, neurostimulation and physiotherapy may be beneficial for patients with chronic CHs. Further studies such as case series and clinical trials are needed to confirm these results.

 The lip brake is a fold in the oral mucosa, originating in the upper lip and insertion in the alveolar mucosa. At birth, the labial frenum may be inserted in the palatal papilla. As the individual grows, he can migrate to a more upper region, featuring a normal lip curl. However, when it remains inserted in the papilla, it is a case of hypertrophic lip curl. When pathological, this structure can promote the formation of interincisal diastema, periodontal pocket, gingival retraction, aesthetic problems, difficulties in phonation and brushing. The objective of this article is to report a clinical case of upper lip frenectomy using the double clamping technique or Archer technique, performed at the Oral Minor Surgery clinic of the Dentistry School of the Federal Fluminense University, in a male patient, leucoderma, 23 years old, indicated by his orthodontist after recurrence of interincisal diastema. From the procedure performed, it can be concluded that the surgical intervention and the applied technique were effective in solving the reported clinical case.

Introduction: Alveolar echinococcosis (AE) is a zoonosis caused by Echinococcus multilocularis. AE is primarily localised in the liver. Echinococcus multilocularis imitates tumour-like behaviour. It can metastasise through blood or lymphatic system to distant organs. Echinococcosis often remains asymptomatic due to its long incubation period and indistinct symptoms. Clinical symptoms are determined by the parasite’s location. Diagnosis of echinococcosis is based on medical history, clinical symptoms, laboratory tests, serology results, imaging methods and final histology findings. Surgical removal of the cyst with a safety margin, followed by chemotherapy is the therapeutic method of choice. Case report: We present a case report of alveolar echinococcosis in a thirty-year-old female patient in whom we surgically removed multiple liver foci of alveolar echinococcosis. The disease recurred after two years and required another surgical intervention. Conclusions: Alveolar echinococcosis is a disease with a high potential for a complete cure provided that it is diagnosed early and that the recommended therapeutic procedures are strictly adhered to.
