Single-group Study to Explore the Optimal Management of Neuropathic Scoliosis Caused by Neural Axis Abnormalities Based on its Clinical Features

Buccal bifurcation cyst (BBC) is a rare inflammatory odontogenic cyst, which commonly affects children in the first decade of life. We report a case of a seven-year-old healthy boy with bilateral BBC, which involved unerupted incomplete permanent mandibular first molars. A review of the literature in English language revealed few similar cases. We reviewed 16 manuscripts of bilateral mandibular BBC, reporting a total of 20 cases since 1970. The clinical features of bilateral mandibular BBC summarized here could assist specialists with an accurate diagnosis and provide patients with optimal management.

Background/Aim. The association between the right-to left shunt (RLS) and migraine with aura (MA) has been proven so far. The aim of this study was to determine if the presence of RLS detected as a result of transcranial doppler (TCD) bubble-test, makes any difference in clinical presentation, aura and headache in patients with MA. Methods. A single-group descriptive study was conducted on 153 patients diagnosed with MA. TCD bubble-test was performed on 135 of them. The recorded demographic and clinical features of patients were analyzed and compared with the results of the TCD bubble test. Results. In the group of 135 patients, 88 (65.2%) had positive TCD bubble-test. The difference in the investigated clinical features of patients of the patients and aura between the patients with and without RLS, was not found. Conclusion. The results of our study confirm a high prevalence of right-to-left shunt in patients with MA, but the clinical relevance of this association was not shown.

Spinal Epidural

Spinal epidural abscess is a rare and debilitating illness that requires prompt recognition to prevent unfavorable outcomes. Despite increased awareness of the disease and improved imaging methods, spinal epidural abscess sometimes remains a diagnostic and therapeutic challenge; as a result, morbidity and mortality can be high. Optimal management of spinal epidural abscess requires early intervention and coordination with a multidisciplinary team, including emergency medicine physicians, infectious disease specialists, radiologists, neurosurgeons, orthopedists, internists, and hospitalists. This chapter reviews the epidemiology, microbiology, pathogenesis, clinical features, diagnosis, treatment, and outcome of spinal epidural abscess.
