Gingival Depigmentation

Smile is the most wonderful gesture of the human being. A Person who is genuinally happy shows his or her pleasure in the form of smile. A beautiful smile for sure enhances individual self confidence. A beautiful smile lies in a harmonial balance between competent lips, size, color, and proper alighnment of teeth and the color of gingival tissues. The normal color of gingival is coral pink as in accordance to British population, and pale pink as in accordance to Indian population. However this gingival pigmentation varies among each and every individual in accordance with the color of the skin, various pigments present in human body like melanin, haemoglobin, carotene. However this melanin when secreted in excess, can lead to brownish, blackish, or bluish discoloration of gingiva, and this discoloration is denoted by the term hyperpigmentation, and the procedure to overcome this hyperpigmentation is called as depigmentation. Present case report is on a 21 years old female whose chief complaint was visual blackish display of gums while smiling. So the procedure depigmentation was done by surgical scalpel by scraping method, and the patient showed better results following two weeks after procedure. Esthetic dentistry is a recently emerging branch. People now a days are much more concern about the gingival esthetics and smile design, as they want their smile to be beautiful in order to boost up their confidence. . One of the gingival esthetic for which the people are concerned are the hyperpigmented gingiva. Gingival depigmentation is the process to remove this abnormal pigmented gingiva. The clinician must have a knowledge as for which condition, which type of gingival depigmentation technique can be applie so as in order to make the treatment successful.

AbstractThe median nerve is formed in the axilla by fusion of the two roots from the lateral and medial cords. The present case report describes an anomalous presentation of double formation of median nerve and its relation with axillary and brachial arteries. The median nerve was formed in two stages at different levels, first in the axilla and then in the upper arm by receiving double contribution from the lateral root of the lateral cord, which fuse with the medial root of the medial cord to form the median nerve. The formation took place medial to the axillary artery in the axilla and antero-medial to the brachial artery in the arm. Such anatomical variations and their relation with the arteries are important for the surgeons and anesthesiologists and of great academic interest to the anatomists.

Rare Association

Fractures of the supracondylar and intercondylar region of the distal femur usually result from high velocity injury that is uncommonly associated with violation of the integrity of the extensor mechanism. The consequences of missed quadriceps injury associated with a distal femur fracture are devastating. The present case report illustrates the importance of recognizing the rare association of quadriceps tear with distal femoral fractures, an appropriate surgical approach to repair the tear as well as fixation of fracture, and a protocol of postoperative rehabilitation to achieve a successful outcome.

CONTEXT: Bluish discoloration and swelling of the scrotum in newborns can arise from a number of diseases, including torsion of the testes, orchitis, scrotal or testicular edema, hydrocele, inguinal hernia, meconium peritonitis, hematocele, testicular tumor and traumatic hematoma. Forty-two cases of scrotal abnormalities as signs of neonatal adrenal hemorrhage were found in the literature. CASE REPORT: We present a case of scrotal hematoma due to adrenal hemorrhage in a newborn. Conservative treatment with clinical follow-up was adopted, with complete resolution within 10 days. The possible differential diagnoses are reviewed and discussed.

Hepatobiliary cystadenocarcinoma is a very rare cystic tumor that arises in the liver or, less frequently, in the extrahepatic biliary system mostly seen in elderly patients. It has been shown to arise in congenital liver cysts, bile ducts, biliary cystadenoma, in the context of bro- polycystic disease and in the hepatoduodenal ligament. In the present case report, we describe a case of rare entity of hepatobiliary cystadenocarcinoma presented in a 36 year old male patient presented to opd with complaints of pain abdomen in right side of upper abdomen since 2 months. Main concern of this case report is preoperative imaging is imprecise and frequently misdiagnosed as benign cystic lesions and delays in treatment.

The Covid 19 disease caused by novel corona virus was rst reported in Wuhan, China in December 2019 with 5% patients having severe lung injury. Though this disease primilary presents as the lower respiratory tract infection, multiple digestive manifestation have been reported which are often overlooked. The present case report describes the unusual progression of the Covid 19 disease from pneumonia to a procoagulant state leading to abdominal venous thrombosis and subsequent gut ischemia necessitating emergency laparotomy.

Abstract Background: Permethrin (PER) is widely employed as the most frequently used type I synthetic pyrethroid insecticide. Despite its worldwide application, reports of pediatric toxicity following permethrin administration are scarce.Case presentation: The present case report involves a 12-year-old Afghan girl, with no previous medical problems, who drank an unknown insecticide covertly at home. Two hours after ingestion, she was taken to the emergency room with neither breathing signs nor a heartbeat. She was immediately transferred to the cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) room, and her spontaneous circulation was returned after a few minutes of CPR. She was then intubated, volume resuscitated with intravenous normal saline, and connected to the mechanical ventilator after being transferred to the ICU ward. The patient remained comatose without spontaneous breathing, her pupils became bilateral mydriasis, and central diabetes insipidus became evident after three days due to apnea and hypoxic brain damage following insecticide ingestion. The chemical analysis of the insecticide bottle showed 10% permethrin without organophosphates, as initially expected. Unfortunately, after seven days, the patient passed away due to resistant hypotension and severe brain damage.Conclusion: Permethrin is widely used globally as an insecticide. However, there are many unmet needs in permethrin toxicity treatment, and the treatment is mainly supportive. Depending on the amount and dose of permethrin, the most common symptoms can vary from headache, dyspnea, and vomiting to metabolic acidosis and cardiac and respiratory arrest, which can lead to hypoxic brain damage and death, as was the outcome in our case.

Gingival Depigmentation

The harmony of smile is determined not only by the shape, position and colour of the teeth but also by the colour of the gingival tissues. Excessive gingival pigmentation is a major aesthetic concern for many people. Though, it is not a medical problem but many people complain of dark gums as unesthetic. Aesthetic gingival depigmentation can be performed in such patients with excellent results. A case is reported here in which a simple and effective gingival depigmentation was performed with the use of electrosurgery which provides increased satisfaction in patients

AbstractThe Kernohan-Woltman notch phenomenon is a paradoxical neurological manifestation consisting of a motor deficit ipsilateral to a primary brain injury. It has been observed in patients with brain tumors and with supratentorial hematomas. It is considered a false localizing neurological sign. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan has been the test of choice. The recognition of this phenomenon is important to prevent a surgical procedure on the opposite side of the lesion. The present case report describes a case of chronic subdural hematoma with a probable finding of the Kernohan-Woltman phenomenon, and it discusses its pathophysiology, imaging findings, treatment, and prognosis.
