Schwannoma is a rare cause of benign tumors of the larynx. The first-choice treatment is surgical resection. The objective of this paper is to report on a rare case of a young female patient who suffered severe intraoperative hemorrhaging during surgical resection of a laryngeal Schwannoma and needed emergency embolization.

Endometriosis is a relatively common condition among women, and pancreatic endometriosis has been reported on rare occasions. Such pancreatic lesions are difficult to diagnose and distinguish from other cystic lesions of the pancreas preoperatively. This report describes a case of pancreatic endometriosis in a 51-year-old female patient. Imaging demonstrated an enlarging cyst with findings concerning for a mucinous neoplasm. The patient underwent robotic distal pancreatectomy and splenectomy. Histopathology revealed an endometriotic cyst. Pancreatic endometriosis can be difficult to distinguish from other lesions of the pancreas. Surgical resection should be undertaken in cases where malignancy is suspected.

Abstract Intestinal intussusception is a rare cause of intestinal obstruction; intestinal intussusception associated with endometriosis is very rare. The varied clinical presentations make the diagnosis demanding. In this article, we report the case of a young female patient with an intestinal obstruction due to intussusception. The successive histologic examination of the resected sample showed advanced endometriosis. This is a very rare entity with only a few similar cases reported in the literature.

Objective Fibromuscular dysplasia rarely involves vessels other than the renal and carotid arteries. We present a case of a rare fibromuscular dysplasia involving multiple vascular beds in a young female patient with history of spontaneous coronary artery (SCAD). Methods This is a case report with review of the literature using PubMed search for other cases of fibromuscular dysplasia that involves multiple vascular beds and its association with SCAD. The patient agreed to publish her case including her images. Results Fibromuscular dysplasia involving multiple vascular beds in a young female patient with prior coronary dissection is rarely reported in the literature. Conclusion Fibromuscular dysplasia affecting multiple vascular beds is rare but should be suspected in patients with SCAD, particularly young female patients.

Abstract The study presents a case of the rarely occurring totally retained fourth molar teeth simultaneously in maxilla and mandible. The appearance of supernumerary teeth is a relatively uncommon dental anomaly and it is rare for patients to have impacted fourth molars in two quadrant. The aim of this work is to describe the presence of unilateral (right) fourth molars in the maxilla and the mandible in a young female patient aged 24 years. Orthopantomogram revealed impacted lower third molars but also unerupted unilateral (right) upper and lower fourth molars. Before orthodontic treatment, the patient was subsequently admitted for removal of third and fourth impacted upper and lower molars under local anesthesia.

This report presents a rare case of multiple Cl.VI carious lesions developed in a young female patient due to full-time wearing of an Essix retainer combined with poor oral hygiene and high acidic intake. The demineralization during orthodontic retention and the hygiene instructions, including the retainer cleaning protocol, are highlighted.

Brunner’s gland hamartoma (BGH) is a rare sub-epithelial tumour of the duodenum, which may cause haemorrhagic or obstructive gastrointestinal symptoms. Their accurate histological diagnosis often remains elusive before resection. Although endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) is considered an excellent modality to study lesions within the gastrointestinal wall, only a few reports have described endosonographic characteristics of BGHs. A reliable pre-resection diagnosis with EUS may not only allay fear of malignancy but may as well avert a major surgery for the patients. In this report, we present a rare case of a large BGH in a young female who presented with acute gastrointestinal bleeding. Here, the endosonographic features assuaged the concern for malignancy while aiding in complete and uneventful surgical resection of the tumour via a submucosal plane.
