Oral myiasis is a rare condition caused due to larvae infestation within the oral cavity. This can be caused by several species of fly larvae and is usually secondary to severe uncontrolled physical or mental illness. Common predisposing factors for oral myiasis are incompetent lips, poor oral hygiene, anterior open bite, mouth breathing, facial trauma and oral carcinoma in a mentally challenged patient. In this case report we describe a case of oral myiasis of the anterior palate in a hemiplegic patient harbouring more than 100 larvae.

Case Presentation

Introduction: Fibroepithelial polyp (FEP) is a benign tumor that is presented frequently in some of the organs like oral cavity, skin, colon and genitourinary tract, but in airway is rare. Case Presentation: We present a rare case in this paper, with recurrent bronchial FEP that was near completely obstructed right main bronchus that we managed her successfully with interventional bronchoscopy. In this case report we describe this rare condition. Conclusion: Airway FEP is uncommon benign tumor that may obstruct airways and rarely may be recurrent like our case.

The present case report describes a conservative and uncommon treatment for class III malocclusion in a woman growing patient with aged eight years and four months. An unconventional treatment modality was used for the treatment of this malocclusion, reverse-pull headgear and distalisation of lower teeth using mandibular cervical headgear in the lower arch. At the end of the treatment (after 33 months), there was correction of the transversal and sagittal occlusal relationship between maxilla and mandible and correct dental intercuspation.

Defined as a rare type I acrocephalosyndactyly syndrome which is clinically characterized by dysmorphic facial features, craniosynostosis, and severe syndactyly of the hands and feet, Apert Syndrome represents an autosomal dominant inheritance which occurs due to the gene mutations in the receptors of the fibroblast growth factor. Oral lesions include tooth crowding, reduction in the size of the maxilla, impacted teeth, anterior open-bite, ectopic eruption, delayed eruption, thick gingiva and supernumerary teeth. The present case report describes a 58 year old female patient reported with the features of Apert’s syndrome such as dysmorphic facial features, occular anomalies, syndactyly and oral features. The case was referred to a specialized centre of clinical care for further treatment.

The Face

Nevus of Ota, a dermal melanocytic nevus, is rare in the Indian subcontinent. It presents as a brown, blue, or gray patch on the face and is within the distribution of the ophthalmic and maxillary branches of the trigeminal nerve. The oral cavity is infrequently involved in nevus of Ota. Only 11 cases have been documented in the English literature. We report a rare case of intraoral nevus of Ota in a 22-year-old male patient. This paper focuses on the differential diagnosis of oral manifestations of nevus of Ota to assist in proper followup to avert malignant transformation.

Choriocarcinoma is a malignant tumor that typically appears in gonadal organs and primarily occurs in women of reproductive age. Being a primary extragonadal choriocarcinoma, primary pulmonary choriocarcinoma (PPC) is an extremely rare condition. Due to the rarity of PPC, no standardized treatment has been established so far. However, surgery combined with adjuvant chemotherapy appears to be the most optimal treatment. Here, we report a rare case of a man with PPC that was successfully treated with surgery followed by chemotherapy.

The presence of teeth on babies earlier than four months is a rare condition. Therefore, adequate treatment for each case should be instituted as soon as possible, considering that certain complications may arise. This report describes a rare case in which a newborn baby required the extraction of two mobile mandibular natal teeth to prevent the risk of aspiration. After two years, the clinical re-evaluation showed a residual tooth instead of a temporary one. This case report shows that adequate diagnosis should include a radiographic examination to determine whether these teeth are components of normal or supernumerary dentition, as well as further investigations on the relationship with the adjacent teeth. Another important aspect highlighted in this case report is the need for a post-extraction curettage of the socket in order to reduce the risk of ongoing development of the dental papilla cells.

Rare Case Report

Fetus papyraceus is a rare condition of a mummified and compressed fetus occurring in multiple gestations where one fetus dies in utero and is merged between the uterine wall and the membranes of living fetus. The blood vessels of the placenta of the two fetuses anastomose with each other, a third cycle occurs, causing fetal death (fetal transfer syndrome). Ultrasonography may identify the Fetus papyraceus, but is not always promising due to anatomical location. Cautious supervision is important during pregnancy for its positive outcome. We report a case of fetus papyraceus in Department of Gynecology and Obstetrics, Paropakar Maternity and Women’s Hospital, Kathmandu, Nepal.
