Desmoplastic Ameloblastoma accounts for 4% to 13% of all ameloblastomas and is a rare variant with high rate of recurrence. The desmoplastic variant of ameloblastoma usually appears in the anterior and premolar regions and sometimes resembles a benign fibro-osseous lesion showing a mixed radiolucent and radiopacity in the radiographic examination. Malignant transformation with repeated postsurgical recurrences have also been reported. In this paper we present a case of a 22-year-old female with swelling in the left upper jaw which turned out to be desmoplastic ameloblastoma. The pathologist and the clinician should be aware of the concepts and the association with malignant transformation and spread of the lesion in order to deliver appropriate treatment and to avoid further recurrences of the leison.

The odontogenic keratocyst (OKC) is the third most common cyst of the jaw. OKCs are benign developmental cysts that are often locally destructive and large at presentation. They are usually identified during radiographic examination and require appropriate treatment planning to ensure optimal care. We present a very challenging case of a 12-year-old boy with a large mandibular OKC. The roots of several teeth were displaced, with both LR3 and LR5 unerupted and severely malpositioned. A multidisciplinary approach was therefore essential in view of the complexity, with joint planning and close liaison of treatment between the surgeon, orthodontist and general dental practitioner (GDP). This was fundamental to ensure the best possible outcome was achieved for the patient. CPD/Clinical Relevance: This case report aims to increase awareness of OKCs to GDPs and outlines the surgical, orthodontic and restorative challenges faced in the management of such cases.

We are reporting a case of solitary endobronchial papilloma located in posterior segment of the left upper lobe of the lung with malignant transformation and negative human papilloma virus (HPV) strains in a 40-year-old Saudi nonsmoker man. The patient had a concomitant tuberculosis (TB) infection. The patient received appropriate treatment in the form of anti-TB medication and surgical resection of the squamous cell carcinoma followed by chemotherapy. There was no evidence of tumor recurrence, resulting in a complete cure. We are reporting the case as well as a literature review related to the topic.

History Of

Verrucous psoriasis is a rare variant of plaque-type psoriasis with only about 35 cases reported. The authors reported a man with a history of psoriasis vulgaris for seven years, presented with progressive verrucous hyperkeratotic plaques on both legs for three years. His earlier investigations favored the diagnosis of tuberculosis verrucosa cutis. After completing the antituberculous therapy, the lesions persisted. The later investigations favored a rare subtype of psoriasis named verrucous psoriasis. Keywords: Verrucous psoriasis, Tuberculosis verrucosa cutis, Mycobacterium tuberculosis, Ixekixumab

We report the case of a 57-year-old woman who presented with local invasion of the anal canal by mucinous adenocarcinoma, the malignant transformation of a long-term preexisting retrorectal tailgut cyst. This progression is infrequent and justifies preemptive surgical treatment of retrorectal cysts.

AbstractThe coracobrachialis muscle (CBM) originates from the apex of the coracoid process, in common with the short head of the biceps brachii muscle, and from the intermuscular septum. The CBM demonstrates variability in both the proximal and distal attachment, with some extremely rare varieties, such as the coracobrachialis superior, coracobrachialis longus and coracocapsularis muscle. This case report describes an extremely rare variant of the coracobrachialis superior muscle, or a very rare variant of the CBM. Our findings highlight the importance of muscle variants in the shoulder region, especially the coracoid region, and are significant for radiologists, anatomists, physiotherapists and surgeons specializing in the shoulder joint.
