A case of surgical treatment of recurrent funnel-shaped chest deformity with the formation of a complex pathological configuration of the anterior chest wall with the III degree of sinking of the sternal-costal complex in a 35-year-old woman is presented. After primary thoracoplasty, the patient underwent mammoplasty with implant placement, which made it difficult to correct the deformity, due to the high risk of damage to both the capsules formed around the implants and the implants themselves. In addition to the sinking of the sternum and adjacent ribs, the patient had a pronounced deformation of the costal arches according to the pterygoid type, which also required correction. In order to correct this deformity, we used a combination of two well known thoracoplasty methods-open resection and mini-invasive by D. NUSS. Thoracoplasty performed in this way allowed to significantly reduce the trauma of the operation, avoid complications, eliminate damage to the implants and, ultimately, get a pronounced cosmetic result that fully meets the patients wishes.

Introduction: Pectus Excavatum usually recognized during infancy and become worse with growing ages. Case presentation: We presented a 6 months old male child to our departmental OPD with complaints of indrawing of anterior chest wall. On physical examination revealed a signicant Pectus Excavatum deformity. There was no other abnormality except the chest wall deformity. An abnormal chest X-ray and CT scan demonstrated leftward displacement of heart and great vessels. Conclusion: Surgery for Pectus Excavatum is specialized and can be done in early childhood with better outcome.

The aim of this case report is to show that bone remineralization around dental implants with a history of peri-implantitis is possible after irritant factors are removed and only conservative treatment is performed. Patient came to the clinic after three years of dental implant placement complaining about swelling, sensitivity and gingiva color changes at the posterior part of the maxilla. During radiographic and intraoral examinations peri-implantitis of the #24 implant site was diagnosed. The surgical treatment method was rejected and performed conservative treatment instead. The outcome is promising; periapical radiographs three months later showed bone remineralization as well as stable bone after 10 years. A key clinical message: Bone remineralization around dental implants with a history of peri-implantitis is possible after irritant factors are removed and conservative treatment performed.

Aggressive angiomyxoma is a rare tumour that frequently involves the perineal region with a high risk of local recurrence. This is a case report of a 24-year-old female patient with a genital prolapse. We performed a surgical treatment. Histological examination found an aggressive angiomyxoma. The tumour recurred 1 year after surgery. Long-term follow-up is necessary.

<p>A 23-year old male was presented at the outpatient clinic of our department reporting that he had been subjected to insertion of foreign bodies in his chest. Physical examination was unremarkable. Imaging studies revealed the presence of two bodies in the subcutaneous tissue of the anterior chest wall and two needle-shaped intramyocardial bodies that were impacted in the intraventricular septum. Due to late appearance, the position, and because of the absence of symptoms, it was decided that the patient should be managed conservatively. Today, five years after the incident, the patient remains asymptomatic and he is followed-up regularly.</p>
