A 69-year-old woman with mucoepidermoid carcinoma (MEC) of the tongue base came under our observation complaining of repeated episodes of haemoptysis. Mucoepidermoid carcinoma of the tongue base gives rise to a rather vague and aspecific symptomatology. Early symptoms include foreign body sensation in the oral cavity, undefined paraesthesia, and sialorrhoea. With the progression of disease, dysphagia, otalgia, and painful swallowing are usually referred. We report a case of mucoepidermoid carcinoma of the tongue base mimicking an ectopic thyroid.

Initial Injury

ABSTRACT Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) rhinorrhea is common in traumatic penetrating nasal injuries. In the pediatric age group, we often encounter self-inflicted foreign body injuries of blunt type, which rarely leads to any complications. We came across a case of CSF rhinorrhea due to self-inflicted penetrating nasal injury, after 7 years of initial injury. In this case, the sharp end of a screw nail had injured the fovea ethmoidalis and caused a meningoencephalocele on removal, which had been asymptomatic until 4 years ago, when the patient came with CSF rhinorrhea. Miraculously, there were no complications in the period before presentation and after surgical correction. How to cite this article Rajasekar MK, Sankar MR.

ABSTRACT A foreign body in the respiratory tract is a serious event, and it needs urgent attention. It is important to know the type of foreign body with careful history taking. Usually, such cases come in pediatric age group due to accidental ingestion or inhalation. We present a case of 12-year-old female who presented with an impacted open safety pin lodged in the larynx. Its sharp end was upward in position and penetrated the subglottis and anterior commissure. A tracheotomy was done for securing airway, and the foreign body was removed with the help of rigid endoscope. The child had an uneventful recovery.

Type Of Injury

Transorbital slow-penetrating injury is an uncommon type of head injury that is seen more often in the pediatric age group. This type of injury can be occult, which is often associated with serious complications. We report on a 4-year-old female who presented with orbital swelling after an unwitnessed right orbital injury following a fall on her face at her school. Three days after injury, the presence of a foreign body was discovered on imaging study when she presented with orbital swelling and purulent discharges. She recovered well after surgical and medical management. This paper sheds light on the importance of high suspicion for the presence and early surgical management of a penetrating foreign body.
