A 13-year-old castrated male Maltese dog was presented to a local animal hospital with an oral hemorrhage. An intraoral examination revealed an irregular proliferated lobular mass at the right side of the maxillary gingiva and hard palate. A surgically excised mass was requested for a histopathology examination. Histopathologically, the neoplastic foci were composed of biphasic morphologic patterns, such as primitive mesenchymal tissue and mature or immature cartilage tissue. Immunohistochemically, most of the neoplastic cells forming cartilaginous islands tested positive for S-100; the surrounding mesenchymal cells tested positive for vimentin. This paper describes a rare case of mesenchymal chondrosarcoma in the maxillary gingiva of a Maltese dog.

We report a very rare case of squamous cell cancer of the right foot which had metastasize to the ipsilateral popliteal lymph node after initial diagnosis and treatment for the loco-regional disease.

Abstract Osteomas are slow growing bone tumours and are often asymptomatic. Rarely, they can be present in the temporal bone—only few cases had been reported, with an incidence of 0.1–1%. We describe a case of an osteoma of the temporal bone (retromastoid) found in a 40 year old female, who presented with a slow growing swelling behind the right ear for 9 years. Diagnosis was made on non-contrast computed topography (CT) of the skull. Treatment is indicated in symptomatic cases or cosmetic reasons. Screening colonoscopy and genetic testing for familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) and Gardner’s syndrome are advised.

Abstract Ameloblastic fibrosarcoma (AFS) is a rare, aggressive malignant odontogenic tumor. AFS is seen most frequently in second and third decades of life. We are reporting a case of a low grade AFS in a 21-year-old male complaining of a painless swelling in the right side of the maxilla. The patient was treated with surgical excision followed by radiotherapy, which is considered the most effective approach for most of soft tissue sarcomas. AFS has a high-reported recurrence rate (up to 37%); therefore, long-term surveillance for recurrence is crucial.

A rare case of a congenital unilateral deformity of the right upper extremity is described consisting of: absence of the carpal bones except the capitate and hamate, absence of the first three metacarpal bones and phalanges and a thumb-like extension to the palm of the dislocated radius. No hereditary family history was found.

AbstractObjective:We report a case of bilateral conductive hearing loss caused by stapedial suprastructure fixation with normal footplate mobility.Case report:A 50-year-old woman had suffered hearing loss in both ears since childhood. Exploratory tympanotomy revealed immobility of the stapes due to a bony bridge between the stapedial suprastructure and the fallopian canal. The incus was missing, while the malleus handle was minimally deformed. The mobility of the stapes footplate was normal. Post-operatively, the hearing in the right ear improved both subjectively and audiographically, while that in the left ear did not improve because of footplate subluxation during surgery.Conclusion:This is a rare case of congenital stapedial suprastructure fixation with normal footplate mobility. In this patient, development of the second branchial arch was arrested. When performing exploratory tympanotomy for stapedial fixation, one must keep in mind that normal footplate mobility is possible.
