Teratoma consists of tissues derived from all the three germ layers, and there may be presence of appendages as a representation of these germ layers as well. Teratomas of the ovary are known to occur in a fairly large number of women. These may be present clinically at a much later stage, permitting a limited treatment plan. Newer diagnostic techniques are always welcome in identifying these lesions. This case report discusses the case of a 40-year-old woman with a large teratoma in the right ovary and its diagnostic and surgical modalities.

Background: Single Coronary Artery (SCA) is a rare, most commonly asymptomatic, congenital anomaly which is usually discovered incidentally during investigations. This entity consists of a single coronary artery supplying the entire myocardium. It may be classified based on the origin and the course of the artery. Depending on the patient's presentation and its severity, medical or invasive interventions may be warranted. Case Report: A 65-year-old female patient known to have diabetes and hypertension presented to our emergency department with chest pain and discomfort. Blood tests and electrocardiography (ECG) showed no significant abnormalities, but on coronary angiography, we suspected an anatomical variation. Computed tomography angiography (CTA) confirmed our suspicion revealing a single coronary artery supplying the entire myocardium and arising from the right sinus of Valsalva. The patient received medical therapy and was discharged home. Conclusion: We presented this case of Single Coronary Artery due to the rarity of this diagnosis. Presentation, treatment plan, and prognosis typically vary depending on the subtype of the anomaly. Early recognition is very important, especially in young adults.

A 7-year-old intact female red-eared slider ( Trachemys scripta elegans) presented with anorexia of 2–3-weeks duration. Coelomic radiographs demonstrated 3 shelled eggs in the right cavity. Hormone therapy failed to induce oviposition. Exploratory laparotomy revealed 3 calcified eggs in the right oviduct and a large mass obliterating the left ovary. The large, multilobulate mass had scattered, firm, white nodules and weighed 450 g. Histopathology revealed a malignant teratoma composed of immature embryonal and extraembryonal elements derived from all 3 germ layers with multifocal epithelial anaplasia. This is the first report of a teratoma in chelonian gonadal tissue. Teratomas and reptilian gonadal neoplasia are reviewed.

The objective of this case report was to describe successful surgical and post-operative management of a medial patellar luxation in a Vietnamese Potbellied Pig. A two-year old, castrated, Vietnamese Potbellied Pig presented to a veterinary teaching hospital for right pelvic limb lameness of 2 weeks duration. Upon physical examination a grade 3 patellar luxation was diagnosed on the right pelvic limb. Surgical repair included a trochlear wedge sulcoplasty, tibial tuberosity transposition, and lateral imbrication as described for canine patellar luxation. The pig was managed post-operatively with meloxicam and a physical therapy regimen of seven weeks duration. At recheck examination the pig was sound, no complications were observed, and the owners were satisfied with the outcome. As miniature companion pigs, such as Vietnamese Potbellied Pigs are currently increasing in popularity as pets, this case demonstrated that comparative techniques from other veterinary species should be considered when considering a treatment plan for a pig with a medial patellar luxation.

Pleomorphic adenomas are benign tumour of the salivary glands that mostly affect the parotid gland. The tumor's "pleomorphic" form can be explained by its epithelial and connective tissue origins. Females between the ages of 30 and 50 are more likely to get the tumour. The tumour usually presents as asymptomatic swelling that progresses slowly. The majority of treatment is surgical removal of the tumour mass, with special attention paid to preserving the facial nerve. This is a case report of a 42-year-old female patient who had a pleomorphic adenoma of the submandibular gland. On the right side of the face, the patient had a slowly growing asymptomatic swelling. Pleomorphic adenoma is the commonest salivary gland tumor characterized by  diverse  histomorphological  features.  Early diagnosis and treatment plan entails thorough history taking, clinical examination, coupled with radiographic and histopathological findings.

Renal Transplantations

As it is known; the majority of the human subjects has two renal arteries arising from the abdominal aorta; each will supply one kidney but in 30% of individuals, certain variations can be found. Accessory renal arteries constitute the most common and clinically important of these variations. For our case report, we are presenting one of these different variations that can be found in the blood supply of the kidneys. During dissecting the abdomen of an approximately 65 years-old male cadaver, multiple variations were found. There were double right renal arteries with prehilar branching of the upper renal artery. We found also that the right renal vein ascended upwards obliquely before ending in the lateral aspect of the inferior vena cava. Variation in the renal vessels is relatively common, especially multiple renal arteries, and can go smoothly without any abnormalities with the function of the kidney, but in some situations like renal transplantations, vascular reconstructions, and various surgical and radiological diagnostic techniques, the study of the anatomy of these variations is of crucial importance to decrease the patient morbidity during surgical procedures.

AbstractTMDs have a multifactorial etiology varying from bruxism, psychological illness and traumatic injuries from mastication, extreme mouth opening, or faulty dental restorations. The present case study highlights the importance of right diagnosis of the patients problem as this forms the foundation to formulate a comprehensive treatment plan which further ensures the right solution to the stated patient problem along with long term maintenance of healthy stomatognathic system. An hard occlusal splint has been indirectly fabricated on the semiadjustable articulator. Occlusal splint used in treatment of TMDs is designed to provide even and balanced Occlusal contacts without forcefully altering the mandibular rest position or permanently altering the dentition. One case of fabrication of mandibular occlusal splint and its therapeutic role is discussed in this case report. The splint successfully relieved the patient TMD signs and symptoms, when used over four months.

Abstract Case report: young adult woman with esthetic complaints regarding her smile and frontal teeth aspect. At first glance, the problem seemed to be only the shape of the lateral upper incisors and a small diastema between the central incisors. The diagnosis shared between the orthodontist and the prosthetist led us to consider some other important aspects, such as the deep bite, the teeth inclination and the lips support. All these findings led us to consider that the right way to improve the esthetics of the patient’s smile was to plan an orthodontic treatment. This would serve not only for the distribution of the spaces, but mostly it would improve all other problems, before the restoration of the upper lateral teeth with two ceramic veneers. Results: the treatment plan achieved the right distribution of spaces for upper lateral incisors, significant correction of the incisors inclination with important reduction of overbite and better lip support, upper laterals restorations with ceramic feldspathic veneers, obtaining a good integration with natural teeth satisfying patient complaint. Conclusion: in cases which involve interdisciplinary approach, the fundamental step comes from the beginning, when only an initial diagnosis shared among the team of specialists can define the patient problems from different points of view. In this way, we can better understand the competency fields and plan the right treatment and time sequence.

Objective. The purpose of this case report is to present a digital mandibular tracing technique used to evaluate a patient with temporomandibular joint dysfunction (TMD). Clinical features. A 65-year-old Caucasian female patient presented with chronical jaw pain in her temporomandibular joint (TMJ) area. The patient describes a dental history of orthodontic and prosthodontic treatment. Orally patient exhibits super erupted teeth, multiply fractured restorations, facial gingival recession, and rotated teeth. The patient also had an uneven occlusal plane and non-working side contact at maxillary first and mandibular second molars. Evaluation and outcome. A digital mandibular tracing technique, cone beam computed tomography, and full-arch optical impressions were used to evaluate the patient's condition. The left condyle was slightly flat compared to the right one on the anterior surface. Limited protrusion and lateral movements and asymmetric border movements were detected. Apparently, an incomplete orthodontic treatment at the patient's early age, iatrogenic mandibular anterior restorations, and hit and slight effect are considered as causes for Temporo-mandibular joint problems. The recommended treatment plan sequence for this patient is an occlusal adjustment, replacement of defective restorations and fabrication of an occlusal guard for one of the arches. Conclusion. Digital mandibular tracing system can help the dentist to diagnose and analyze the causes of TMD patient specifically and individually. It also provides quick resolution and management for patients with TMD.

Ovarian teratomas are rare neoplasms in female dogs, and they are characterised by the proliferation of tissues of embryonic origin. Most teratomas are benign, but a histological diagnosis is important for clinicians. The objective of this article is to describe a benign ovarian teratoma in a dog, which was found on the street and was appearing like pregnant. A veterinary inspection by palpation documented an enlarged abdomen with a mass of tough matter located on the right side in the abdominal-pelvic part. An ultrasound examination presumed neoplastic mass in region of ovary. A bilateral ovariohysterectomy was performed and the subsequent histological evaluation revealed a benign ovarian teratoma with a histochemically and immunohistochemically verified nervous tissue. After one year, no distant metastases were found and the dog was recognised as being clinically healthy without problems. On the basis of the ultrasonography diagnostics and histopathological analyses, we have demonstrated the occurrence of a benign ovarian teratoma in a dog.

Displaced dental implants into the maxillary sinus are relatively rare. Treatment consists of implant surgical removal. Objective: To present two case reports of the removal of implants displaced into maxillary sinus by a conservative technique. Case report: Report 1: A 44-year-old female sought for treatment complaining about headaches and recurrent sinusitis. In the anamnesis she reported she had been undergone placement of nine maxillary implants, fifteen years ago, with total loss of those elements. At the imaging exams it was possible to observe two displaced implants into the bilateral maxillary sinus, besides radiopaque image on the left maxillary sinus, compatible with maxillary sinusitis. Based on this data, the proposed treatment plan was the removal of the displaced implants through Caldwell Luc approach and sinusotomy in the left side, under general anesthesia. The patient has a follow-up of 6 months without complaints. Report 2: A 42-year-old male was referred to the Surgery and Maxillofacial Traumatology Department for implant removal from the right maxillary sinus. Patient underwent implant installation in the area around 9 months ago. In the computarized tomography it was possible to diagnose the implant migration into the right maxillary sinus. the proposed treatment plan was the removal of the displaced implant via Caldwell Luc Access by repositioning the bony window and sinusotomy. Results: Patient has been with no complaints at 30 days after surgery. Conclusion: The technique has been shown to be effective in treating the condition.
