ABSTRACTAcute streptococcal gingivitis is an acute inflammation of the oral mucosa and also may be seen with the other oral diseases as aggressive periodontitis that is characterized by a considerable attachment loss over a relatively short period of time. Streptococcal infections of gingiva are seen rarely; also the origin of this gingival inflammation is occasionally different from that of routine plaque-associated gingivitis. The clinical features and treatment methods of these diseases are already reported in previous literatures. This case report describes a patient who presented with severe gingival inflammation and attachment loss that was diagnosed as an acute streptococcal infection associated with aggressive periodontitis. In this study a supportive treatment option was demonstrated based on these data and antacid treatment as adjunctive to the recommended treatment modalities was used for streptococcal gingivitis.

The present case, of a child with an idiopathic immune deficiency and aggressive periodontitis in the primary dentition, serves as an example for the treatment considerations in these cases. Extraction of all the primary teeth proved to be the most adequate treatment. It allowed the child to eat properly and prevented unwanted infections that could endanger the life of the child. The newly erupted permanent teeth have been subjected to careful oral hygiene, clorhexidine topical applications, and have mild gingival inflammation and no attachment loss.

Dyskeratosis congenita (DC) is an uncommon disease characterized by nail dystrophy, cutaneous hyperpigmentation, leukoplakia, pancytopenia, and malignant transformation. There can be some oral and dental changes such as oral leukoplakia, increase in tooth decay, hypodontia, thinning of enamel layer, aggressive periodontitis, intraoral brown pigmentation, missing tooth, taurodontism, and blunted roots. Most of cases belong to dermatology or pediatrics department. There are few reports about dentistry. The aim of this report is to lay emphasis on this fatal syndrome among dentists about the multisystem findings and oro-dental changes. Thus, this information may aid dentists in early diagnosis. A case of 21-year-old male diagnosed with DC is reported.

Thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) is a serious toxicity associated with a small number of antineoplastic agents. A case report of a patient with probable cisplatin and bleomycin-induced TMA is presented. The basic triad of symptoms that occurs in the TMA syndrome include microangiopathic hemolytic anemia, thrombocytopenia, and renal impairment. Cardiovascular, pulmonary, and neurologic complications also occur frequently. The pathogenesis of chemotherapy-associated thrombotic microangiopathy (C-TMA) has not been established. Proposed mechanisms include von Willebrand Factor abnormalities, decreased prostacyclin production, and immune complex formation. Treatment modalities have been unsuccessful and the majority of patients reported have died. Immunoperfusion with staphylococcal protein A is the most effective treatment available and this new technique appears promising. This article reviews the results of all cases of C-TMA reported to date in the English literature and discusses the theories of pathogenesis, clinical features, treatment, and treatment-related complications of the syndrome.

It is the type of psoriasis which occurs in palms and soles together with features like scaling, erythema and itching, pustules cracked & pain, and is limited. Palmo-plantar is the disease which does not have a specific line of treatment, but can be assessed and treated with classical line of Ayurvedic management. This Palmo-plantar not only affects physically but also disturbs the mental health of patient In Ayurveda all the skin diseases are described under single topic; Kushtha (Skin disorders). As Palmo-Plantar psoriasis is compared with Vipadika Kshudra Kushta (cracked bilateral soles & palms) in Ayurveda, the predominant Dosha’s (fundamental bodily bio-elements) are Vata (governs movement of body & mind) & Kapha (controls immune system) in which Vaman Karma (Emesis) is useful. Aim: To evaluate the role of Ayurveda treatment modalities in Vipadika Kshudra Kushta. Materials & Methods: A case report of 56 year old male patient suffering from scaling of both palms and soles with severe pain since 16 years is presented in this article where the patient got satisfactory relief by adopting Shodhan Karma (purification treatment) followed by Shaman Chikitsa (pacifying treatment) with dietary and behavioral lifestyle modification. The symptoms were reduced by Vaman procedure. Result: Patient got about 80% relief after the treatment by which one can say that the palmo-plantar psoriasis can be treated by Ayurveda Medicine.
