Transverse Vaginal Septum

Transverse vaginal septum is one of the variants of Mullerian duct anomaly, caused as a result of defective fusion or recanalisation of vaginal and Mullerian organs. At an early age, it commonly presents as primary amenorrhea along with cyclical abdominal pain while later on usually it presents as dyspareunia and infertility. Our 22-year-old patient presented with secondary amenorrhea. It is very unusual for a transverse vaginal septum to cause secondary amenorrhea. MRI and clinical examination raised the suspicion of transverse vaginal septum causing secondary amenorrhea. She attained regular menstrual cycle after septum excision. The proposed theory behind it is obliteration of microperforated transverse vaginal septum because of menstrual blood and cell debris. Thus, a rare possibility of transverse vaginal septum should also be considered as a differential diagnosis of secondary amenorrhea.

Hereditary Nonpolyposis

Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC), also known as Lynch syndrome, is a common autosomal dominant syndrome characterized by early age at onset, and microsatellite instability (MSI). Patients with Lynch syndrome have a markedly increased risk of colorectal cancer. We report a case of a 28-year-old male with Lynch syndrome; the case allows to describe clinical manifestations and diagnostic criteria of this syndrome, and to underline the importance of genetics in the diagnosis of this disease.

Musical Education

For children, musical education is considered as an essential need since it supports psychomotor development and provides children with an environment, where they can freely express themselves. Classical guitar is a polyphonic instrument that is widely used in musical education and, as with other instruments, it necessitates a certain level of learning discipline. The objective of the present study is to examine the « Je deviens guitariste Vol.1 » guitar method developed by Thierry Tisserand, being a composer and guitarist and affected by jazz, bossa nova, and other music genres, for children, who have no solfeggio knowledge and are having the first guitar education from scratch, and to reveal on which aspects of early-age guitar education this method has effects. The present research is a descriptive study providing a situation assessment and is based on general survey model. This qualitative study uses various document and content analysis methods. The data were obtained by analyzing this method’s contributions to the educational process and by reviewing the literature. Based on the findings obtained as a result of this research, how contributions that this method could offer for resolving the possible problems that might be observed in early-age guitar education are discussed and suggestions are provided for educator and method.

INTRODUCTION: The new proposed classification of ILAE Task Force (2001) proposes that the occipital epilepsies should be split into two subtypes: an early-onset benign childhood occipital epilepsy (or Panayiotopoulos type) and late-onset childhood occipital epilepsy (or Gastaut type). Migraine with visual aura must be considered as a differential diagnosis in childhood and adolescents with occipital epilepsy without motor phenomena. OBJECTIVE: The goal of our paper is to report the case a 16-year-old female, with normal psychomotor development, that during the lunch time presented an event characterized by the vision of multiple colored spots which were moving horizontally and vertically and also in circles through the visual field. Minutes after the visual event, the patient referred to a severe diffuse throbbing headache with frontal predominance. During the clinical investigation was submitted to a video-electroencephalogram exam for 12 hours with, reveling occipital sharp-waves discharges in occipital right region as well as in occipital left region. CONCLUSION: We reported of such classic type of epileptic syndrome in a patient in the unusual age of onset, the end of adolescence, considering the differential diagnosis with migraine with visual aura.

Sebaceous Lymphadenoma

Lymphadenoma of the salivary gland is a rare form of tumor that can be branched into Sebaceous Lymphadenoma (SLA) and Non-Sebaceous Lymphadenoma (NSLA). It is painless, hyperdense, shiny yellowish/brownish unicystic or multicystic mass which is encapsulated and well defined having lymphocytic and/or lymphoid follicles background present with or without sebaceous differentiation. Both SLA and NSLA are predominantly located in parotids with occasional case appearing in minor salivary glands and has <100 and <50 reported cases respectively in English literature. We have attempted to compile reported case studies on SLA and NSLA and tried to make analysis on the basis of findings. Our analysis revealed that both SLA and NSLA are often non-malignant in nature but feature of malignancy cannot be completely ruled out. Data also found that SLA and NSLA has a significant gender bias towards males but NSLA is more likely to appear at an early age as compared to SLA which often emerge after the 5th decade of life. Further, differential diagnosis should be considered to distinguish SLA and NSLA from Warthin’s tumor, pleomorphic adenoma, mucoepidermoid carcinoma, cystadenoma, lymphoepithelial cysts, myoepithelial sialadenitis, malignant lymphoma and metastatic adenocarcinoma of lymph node. This review discusses various techniques used in the past studies that can be helpful in making differential diagnosis.
