Failure To Progress

Abstract Uterus didelphys accounts for 13% of uterine anomalies and has been correlated with preterm delivery and fetal malpresentation at delivery. A 37-year-old pregnant woman reported a spontaneous pregnancy in the right horn of a uterus didelphys. The course of the pregnancy was complicated by gestational diabetes, but no miscarriage threat or preterm delivery threat was reported during this pregnancy. She arrived at our division, in labor, at 39.2 gestational weeks’. She delivered by cesarean section due to failure to progress at 5 cm. Her post-operative course was uneventful. Vaginal delivery could be a safe option and the induction of labor or the use of oxytocin could be helpful in such cases, but recommended doses and labor time should be evaluated, so cesarean section is to date the most frequent delivery route in uterus didelphys at term.

Compound Odontoma

Eruption of tooth into extraosseous locations is an extremely rare condition. We report a case of a six-year-old girl child with tooth-like structure erupting from the right buccal mucosa. Clinical, radiographic, and histopathologic examination suggested the diagnosis of compound odontoma. Very few cases have been reported so far, where tooth has been located completely in the soft tissue and a variety of names have been used for that condition. A brief review of the literature and the ambiguity in naming the situation is discussed.

Ameloblastic carcinoma (AC) is a rare malignant odontogenic tumor in pediatric patients, only 22 cases have been reported in literature since 1932. We present an extremely rare case in which AC occurred in a 2-year-old girl, who had a tumor in the right mandible. Radiographic findings showed a multilocular, poorly defined, and mixed radiolucent-radiopaque lesion in the region of teeth #84 to #85, with bone and tooth root resorption. Computed tomography revealed buccal cortex destruction, tumor infiltration of soft tissue, and enlarged nodes. Incisional biopsy showed histomorphological features of AC. Immunohistochemical analysis exhibited a positive result for Cytokeratin (CK) 19 and overexpression of p53 and Ki67. The patient underwent right hemimandibulectomy and neck dissection. The final pathology was consistent with the initial diagnosis of AC. The patient did not exhibit signs of recurrence or metastasis within 2 years postoperatively. Given the rarity of this disease and the age of the patient, this report constitutes a valuable contribution to the current literature.

Synovial chondromatosis is a benign disease which most commonly appears in large joints and only rarely affects the temporomandibular joint. The diagnosis is quite difficult due to the fact that a large swelling in the preauricular area and the radiographic findings may be misdiagnosed as other benign or malignant diseases. We report an unusual case of intra- and extracapsular chondromatosis of 25 osteochondral loose bodies in the right temporomandibular joint.

Abstract We describe a rare case of high-grade osteosarcoma with intravascular extension to the right atrium and right ventricle in a 23-year-old woman. Osteosarcomas rarely metastasize to the heart, and only a few cases have been reported in the literature thus far. Diagnoses in some of these cases were made during investigation for severe cardiac failure and in most of these cases at autopsy. We describe a unique case of intravascular extension of the tumor embolus in a cordlike fashion from the left femoral vein to the right side of the heart that morphologically resembled a chondrosarcoma.

Primary Presentation

A 70-year-old woman presented with a 2-year history of increasing breathlessness. Computed tomography (CT) of the chest confirmed a well-defined cystic lesion abutting the mediastinum in the right hemi thorax measuring 8 × 6 cm. She underwent a right thoracotomy to excise the cystic lesion. Biopsies for histology demonstrated metastatic serous ovarian epithelial carcinoma. We report a very unusual primary presentation of ovarian epithelial carcinoma as a single cystic mediastinal mass. We also include a brief review of the literature.

Background Arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) of the scalp are rare and infrequently encountered by the neurosurgeon. Case Description We report a unique case of a 42-year-old patient who presented with a progressive worsening of visual acuity in the right eye (lower quadrantanopia) and palpebral ptosis. Physical examination revealed a right exophthalmos and a right frontoparietal scalp soft swelling when the patient was in the supine position. Neurologic work-up showed a scalp AVM extending into the orbit and connected to an intraorbital cavernous angioma. The patient was treated with a frontotemporal craniotomy and decompression of the orbit. Conclusions In the rare case of intraorbital extension of a scalp AVM, neurologic symptoms may appear when the size of the vascular malformation increases with age. The aims of surgery should be decompression of the orbit and aesthetic preservation, rather than complete excision. A review of the literature is also provided.

Although percutaneous nephrolithotomy is generally safe, it has various complications. We present an extremely rare case in which the nephrostomy tube pierced renal parenchyma, proceeded through the right renal vein and inferior vena cava, finally reaching the right atrium. Such a tube misplaced to atrium level was firstly reported, which was safely withdrawn using a 2-step process under fluoroscopic monitoring. We also recommend the tube be marked with different color lines to maintain awareness of the tube length that has passed the peel-away sheath. Such information might help to avoid such complication.

We report a rare case of an inguinal hernia containing part of a native kidney and present a review of the literature with regard to urological findings in patients with inguinal hernias. This case involves an elderly man with known bilateral inguinal hernias with an incidental radiographic finding of a large right inguinal hernia containing the inferior pole of the right kidney. The patient was not symptomatic from the hernia and given his overall frailty, no surgical intervention was offered.

AbstractPeriventricular cavernomas presenting with hydrocephalus and superficial siderosis are uncommon lesions. We report a rare case of one such periventricular cavernoma located in the peritrigonal location of the right lateral ventricle in a 26-year-old male who presented with progressive headache for 3 months. Magnetic resonance imaging showed heterogeneous lesion with “blooming” on susceptibility-weighted imaging and superficial siderosis due to repeated microhemorrhages. The lesion was resected and found histopathologically to be cavernoma. We present this uncommon lesion with a review of the literature.
