Fibrous type gingival overgrowth is commonly seen in oral cavity and can be either benign or malignant lesions. Chronic irritation is one of the most common causes of nonneoplastic type of lesion. Focal fibrous hyperplasia also called as irritational or traumatic fibroma usually can be self limiting in nature or sometimes excision is recommended. Present case report demonstrates clinical and histological insight on the lesion.

A malformation in the fetus may result into monstrosity which can result in difficult parturition. Fetal anomalies and monstrosities are common causes of dystocia in bovine (Shukla et al., 2007) with the incidence of 7.9 % in river buffaloes (Phogat et al., 1992). Dicephalus monsters have been reported in buffaloes (Srivastava et al., 2008) and cows (Chandrahasan et al., 2003). The present case report describes a rare condition of conjoined twins (dicephalus dipus dibrachius dicaudatus monster) causing dystocia and its successful obstetrical management in a Murrah buffalo.

AbstractDrug-induced gingival overgrowth (DIGO) secondary to chronic phenytoin intake for seizure control is a well-recognized phenomenon. Phenytoin-induced gingival overgrowth (PIGO) usually resolves gradually following cessation of phenytoin intake. It is usually seen throughout the dentate regions of the maxillary and mandibular dental arches, but more severely affect their anterior portions exposed to atmosphere. We report a rare case of PIGO predominantly involving hard palate and floor of oral cavity, which has not been reported in English literature till date.

Hemangiomas and pyogenic granulomas of oral cavity are well-known benign lesions. Pyogenic granuloma is known to show a striking predilection for the gingiva and capillary haemangioma frequently occurs in the lips, cheek, and tongue. The present case report is an atypical presentation of capillary haemangioma on gingiva which is considered to be extremely rare. The clinical presentation of the lesion in our case mimicked a pyogenic granuloma however, histopathologically was diagnosed as capillary haemangioma. These lesions present as a diagnostic dilemma to the clinician and can lead to serious complications if not carefully managed.

Focal fibrous hyperplasia is a slow growing connective tissue tumor that frequently occurs in different anatomic sites of the oral cavity. The present case report describes the occurrence of this lesion on the ventral surface of the tongue which is hitherto least reported intraoral site, in a 11 year old male patient, which was successfully excised.

Heterotopic pancreas is a congenital pathology of the gastrointestinal tract, particularly rare in the esophagus. Both symptomatology and findings during preoperative examinations are non-specific and therefore do not often lead to an accurate diagnosis, which is usually revealed only by histopathological assessment of a resected specimen. We report an unusual case of a patient suffering from severe dysphagia caused by heterotopic pancreas in the distal esophagus with chronic inflammation and foci of premalignant changes. This article also reviews 14 adult cases of heterotopic pancreas in the esophagus previously reported in the literature, with the aim of determining the clinical features of this disease and possible complications including rare premalignant lesions and malignant transformation. Especially with regard to those complications, we suggest that both symptomatic and incidentally found asymptomatic lesions should be resected.

Aural haematoma is the collection of blood or serum within the cartilage plate of the ear pinna which presents as fluctuant, fluid-filled swelling on the concave surface of one or both the pinna (Fossum, 2007). It occurs as a result of constant shaking and rubbing of ear due to otitis, ectoparasitism, ottorrhoea, foreign bodies, hypersensitivity and allergic dermatitis. This chronic irritation, constant shaking and rubbing of the ear leads to rupture of the pinnal blood vessel resulting in haematoma formation (Ahiwar et al., 2007).

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.

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.

Gingival overgrowth is the enlargement of gingival tissues and has various underlying aetiological factors. This case report highlights the multifactorial aetiology of gingival overgrowth for a patient who was prescribed an immunosuppressive strategy following renal transplantation, had poor levels of oral hygiene and a diet deficient in fruit and vegetables. The report highlights the importance of a detailed assessment to identify all underlying factors and demonstrates how a referral to the specialist services for gingival overgrowth led to a diagnosis of vitamin C deficiency. It also illustrates how both patient engagement and a conservative cause-related therapy can achieve a satisfactory resolution without any surgical intervention. CPD/Clinical Relevance: This case report highlights the importance of a detailed assessment to diagnose all relevant underlying aetiological factors involved in the development of gingival overgrowth. It also illustrates how both patient engagement and a conservative cause-related therapy can achieve a satisfactory resolution of gingival overgrowth without any surgical intervention.
