Mediastinal Extension

Lymphangioma is an infrequent benign tumour that is formed usually from a congenital malformation of the lymphatic ducts causing lymphangiectasis. The abdominal location represents 1-5%, with dominance in the mesentery and retroperitoneum, however, the pancreatic location is very rare having described less than 100 cases published worldwide. The clinical symptoms of the lymphangiomas are non-specific and depend of the tumour’s size and location. Here we present a clinical case of a pancreatic lymphangioma with mediastinal extension who was treated with a complete resection and this case shows that the diagnosis of cystic pancreatic lymphangioma must be taken as a differential diagnosis of pancreatic cystic lesions.

AbstractBackground:Dermoid cysts in the floor of the mouth are relatively uncommon developmental lesions. They are thought to arise in the midline and along the lines of embryonic fusion of the facial processes containing ectodermal tissue.Case report:A 17-year-old female presented with a 3-month history of a growing, progressive swelling in the mouth floor. Clinical examination revealed a rather large symmetrical, soft swelling in the mouth floor, displacing the tongue superiorly. The fast growing nature and size of the lesion raised suspicion of potential compromise to the airway. Surgical excision was therefore performed.Conclusion:Differential diagnosis of cystic lesions in the floor of the mouth is of paramount importance, as the recommended surgical techniques vary depending on the anatomical position of the lesions. The intraoral approach is preferred for those lesions that do not extend beyond the mylohyoid muscle boundaries; this leads to a satisfactory cosmetic and functional outcome.

Cystic lesions of the adrenal gland are usually rare, seen in 1/5750 to 1/250,000 of the population. They may be true cysts, infectious cysts, malignancies with cystic degeneration, or pseudocysts. Adrenal cysts are rare in the differential diagnosis of Retroperitoneal Cysts (RPC) and may be treated. They can be correctly identified through pathological testing. Here, the author presents a case of giant adrenal cyst in a young 38-year-old female.

Over the past period of the COVID‑19 pandemic, experience has been gained on the ways of spreading the infection, new approaches to treatment have been formed, and preparations for vaccine prevention have been created. Information about COVID‑19 is updated with new data on the features of the clinical course, including rare manifestations of the disease. The clinical symptoms of CAVID‑19 are characterized by a significant variety and are due to the tropism of the SARS‑CoV‑2 virus to various tissues. The article describes a clinical case of COVID‑19. With severe intoxication syndrome, the patient was found to have concomitant acute tonsillitis. The article provides a review of the literature on the clinical symptoms of COVIND‑19 and the mechanisms of their development. The differential diagnosis of viral and bacterial tonsillitis is considered. Efficacy of antibacterial therapy of tonsillitis with cefixime. The clinical case is illustrated with photos.

History Of

Cherubism is described as a rare and benign hereditary bone disease, characterized by a bilateral volumetric increase in the maxillary bones, with a greater predilection for males in childhood. Clinically, it presents as a volumetric enlargement of the mandible and, maxilla, which is generally painless, firm on palpation and varies in relation to size and extension. Its differential diagnosis is the Brown Tumor of Hyperparathyroidism and the Central Lesion of Giant Cells. The diagnosis is based on the assessment of clinical characteristics together with complementary exams. The objective of this study was to carry out a brief review of the literature and report a clinical case of this pathology in a 9-year-old child with a family history of cherubism, assessed through imaging, histopathological and karyotype exams, which continues to be assisted by the oral and maxilofacial surgery team of the Faculdade de Odontologia de Araçatuba - FOA Unesp since the treatment of the cherubism still does not have a definitive protocol.

Abstract Cystic lesions of the maxilla are benign entities with both odontogenic and non-odontogenic origins. The maxillary cyst is a benign tumor of the bones of the jaw, which has a membrane and contains a fluid, semi-solid or mixed (liquid / semi-gaseous) material. These often lead to deformities in the jaw area. Cases are specific by framing pathological rarity, etiology, pathogenesis and clinical symptoms. Considering the large entity of cystic formations that can be found in the maxilla region, we selected two patients with cystic formations of the upper jaw, which were part of different pathological etiology categories, with special rarity occurring, evolutionary appearance and difficult to classify in terms of pathognomonic signs.

Rare Case Report

Polycystic (dysgenetic) disease of the salivary glands is a rare entity that has only recently been described in the literature. The disease is more commonly seen in females and majority of the cases have presented as bilateral parotid gland swellings. This case presenting in a 21-year-old male is the first of this unusual entity involving solely the minor salivary gland on the lower lip. This case report highlights the importance for the clinician to be aware of this differential diagnosis, when treating an innocuous lesion like a mucocele.

Intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (IPMNs) are benign cystic lesions of the pancreas with recognised premalignant potential. An occasional feature of IPMNs is fistula formation to surrounding organs. This report describes a case of a pancreaticogastric fistula from a main duct IPMN that produced the complete resolution of the patient’s symptoms.

Review Of The Literature

Nodular fasciitis is a rare disease, and its diagnosis is difficult. We present a case report of a seven-year-old child with progredient swelling of the left pectoralis muscle three weeks after trauma. After histopathological diagnosis, we performed complete resection. Normally, a conservative approach with regular follow-up is regarded as appropriate since nodular fasciitis does have the capability to regress spontaneously. Since recent publications indicate the possibility of malignant transformation, the complete primary resection also has to be discussed as therapy of choice.

Histological Features

Synovial sarcoma (SS) represents about 10% of all soft tissue sarcomas. It is believed that its origin would be found in cells that are related neither to ultrastructural nor to histological features of the synovial tissue. Head and neck is very rarely affected, with the lower extremities being most frequent. Complete resection with or without radiotherapy and chemotherapy is currently considered the best available therapy. This time we present the case of a patient with SS located in the infratemporal fossa, its diagnosis, treatment and evolution. According to our knowledge it is the first reported case in South America.
