Fibroadenoma is a common abnormality which every surgeon has been exposed to, and there are several international guidelines regarding its management. However giant fibroadenomas, especially in the premenarche setting has been a rare occurrence, even for the experienced surgeon. Various reports have shown that we need to treat this condition more aggressively than the normal fibroadenoma, and issues of cosmesis in a developing breast along with the aim to preserve lactation functionality becomes an issue. Since these cases remain a single life time experience for most surgeons, there is a sparsity of treatment protocols even in literature. Through this paper we hope to shed some valuable insight to this rare disorder and help surgeon colleagues, when dealing with similar cases.

Background: Pink spots in teeth were first described by Mummery in 1920, and were related to resorption. Resorption is a pathologic process that often eludes the clinician with its varied etiologic factors and diverse clinical presentations. Resorption can be generally classified as internal and external resorption. Internal resorption has been described as a rare occurrence as compared to external resorption. Case report: This article describes a pink spot that was diagnosed as a progressing resorption process. Early diagnosis enabled a successful management of the lesion. Conclusion: Early diagnosis and treatment of an internal resorption, clinically seen as a pink spot, in a primary central incisor may prevent its fast progress and subsequent loss.

Submassive Pulmonary Embolism

Postpartum pulmonary hypertension (PPPHT) is an extremely rare disorder, with few reported cases. Late diagnosis and treatment are associated with significant morbidity and mortality. We present an 18-year-old female patient who presented four-week postpartum with a typical submissive pulmonary embolism picture subsequently diagnosed as postpartum pulmonary hypertension. The patient had an excellent response to treatment, with a dramatic improvement in her functional status. The authors aim to urge physicians to keep this rare disorder in mind as timely and accurate diagnosis is crucial for management—additionally, the importance of counseling patients about the imminent risks associated with planned future pregnancies.

Hyperostosis frontalis interna (HFI) is a rare disorder common among postmenopausal females that involve increased volume and porosity of the frontal bone. Depending on the size, it could be symptomatic or asymptomatic. With a little report on the pathophysiology of HFI, we present a peculiar case of HFI with speculations that could shed more light on the already established literature and pose questions for future research.

Yellow Nail Syndrome

Yellow nail syndrome (YNS) is a rare disorder, and diagnosis is based on the clinical findings and the exclusion of other possible causes; the pathogenesis is poorly understood. YNS can be an isolated condition or associated with other diseases; however, YNS associated with multiple myeloma (MM) is rare. A 53-year-old male patient presented with coughing and shortness of breath, and he was diagnosed with YNS with MM. He underwent chemotherapy and achieved a good response. Although the etiology of YNS remains unknown, treating the underlying disease may help prevent or relieve the clinical signs.
