Tip Of The Tongue

Background: Oral papilloma is benign lesion while there is concern about high-risk types of Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) for cancer. Case Presentation: The patient was a 30-year-old woman who presented to the School of Dentistry, Semnan University of Medical Sciences for orthodontic treatment. Intraoral examinations revealed a prominent white papule on the tip of the tongue. Histopathologic exanimation revealed the proliferation of hyper keratinized stratified squamous epithelium arranged in projections with fibrovascular connective tissue cores, cell irregularity with hyperchromatic nucleus and koilocytes within the epithelium which confirmed the diagnosis of squamous papilloma (SP) with mild to moderate dysplasia. The patient was instructed to take care of the sexual behaviors and the injection of Gardasil vaccine was recommended. A month later, there was no evidence of a lesion. Conclusion: Though SPs are common lesions in the oral cavity, occurrence of dysplasia on SPs on the anterior part of the mouth is rare. Surgical removal supplemented by administration of Gardasil vaccine can be the treatment of choice in these cases. The significance of close attention to the oral lesions and consultation with an Oral and Maxillofacial Medicine Specialist is highly recommended in order to accurate diagnosis and timely treatment.

Introduction: Occupational exposure in dentistry is defined as exposing the skin or mucosa to blood, saliva, or infectious discharge of the patient. Dentists are in contact with sharp and high-speed rotary devices that increase the chance of occupational exposure. The purpose of this study was to determine the occupational exposure to blood and saliva of patients in dental students of Shahid Sadoughi University of Medical Sciencesin 2016-2017. Methods: A descriptive analytical study was conducted on 70 senior dental students at the School of Dentistry of Shahid Sadoughi University of Medical Sciences in Yazd, Iran. A standard questionnaire was used for collecting the data. After collecting the data, they were coded and entered into the SPSS 20 software and analyzed using descriptive statistics, Chi-square and Fisher exact test. Results: Based on the results, 49 (70%) of 70 students have been suffered from sharp devices. The skin or mucosa of the 62 students (88.6%) infected with saliva or other body fluids of the patients. Only 15.7% of the injuries were reported with sharp objects and 14.3% of mucosal-skin contamination with blood or saliva. Conclusion: Occupational exposure in dentistry environment is a common problem and many cases, which are related to these subjects were not reported. In order to reduce the risks of this, infection control issues should be taught to dental students. Therefore, occupational exposure management, follow-up centers and guidelines should be established for dental schools.

OBJECTIVE: This article presents a case of inflammatory fibrous hyperplasia (IFH) treated by diode laser surgery, as well as a review of the literature about this pathology.CASE DESCRIPTION: A 55-year-old woman was referred to the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Pontifical Catholic University of Rio Grande do Sul, School of Dentistry, complaining of a discomfort on swallowing due to a soft-tissue mass in the oral cavity that had been developing for approximately 3 years. Intraoral examination revealed multiple exophytic, pedunculated lesions with a smooth surface and pinkish in color, affecting almost the entire right cheek mucosa. The lesion turned out to be a IFH by histopatology. Surgical removal of IFH of the oral mucosa using a diode laser was performed. The lesion was removed in 3 sessions. The patient reported no local symptoms after each irradiation. The clinical appearance 10 months after the last irradiation session demonstrated complete healing and no signals of recurrence.CONCLUSION: Based on the results obtained, we can conclude that diode laser radiation contributes significantly to the advancement of oral surgery and should be considered a valuable resource for the treatment of soft-tissue lesions in the field of oral and maxillofacial surgery.

Undergraduates experience overwhelming changes and challenges that expose them to risky sexual behaviors, an act that leads to physical, psychosocial harm and its predictors contribute to lost lecture hours among campus students; hence this study aims at exploring contributory factors and outcomes of risky sexual behaviors among Nursing and Medicine students in PAMO University of Medical Sciences, Port Harcourt Rivers State Nigeria. Descriptive survey was conducted in 2019 and 280 students in their first and second year of study from the participating Departments were selected from study population of 491 using Yaro Yamanes sample size formula. Proportionate sampling technique followed by simple randomization was done. Ethical approval and consent were obtained while confidentiality and anonymity were maintained. WHO-adapted questionnaire was administered to respondents with the help of a research assistant. Data was collected using a 3-point Likert statistically-validated questionnaire with a reliability coefficient of 0.8, analyzed and computed on Statistical Package for Social Sciences version 21. Mean values below 2.0 were judged insignificant. Findings shows that Ignorance (x¯=2.81), lack of sex education (x¯=2.79), were among the factors that significantly influenced participant’s risky sexual behavior, however, reduced fun associated with use of condom (x¯=1.99) and equivalent of unprotected sex with trust (x¯=1.97) had insignificant impact. Interestingly, participants expressed similar outcomes of risky sexual behavior recording- sexually transmitted infection (x¯=2.80), pregnancy (x¯=2.76) abortion (x¯=2.71), out of School due to non-support by family (x¯=2.65); among others. Finally, risky sexual behavior among undergraduates affects the academic pursuit and there is need to continue reproductive health education if Sustainable Development Goals five and six will be achieved.

Madelung’s Disease (MD), also known as benign multiple symmetric lipomatosis or Launois-Bensaude syndrome, is a rare condition. The characteristic feature is the presence of numerous diffuse lipomas at the level of the neck or upper limbs. The etiology is unknown, but a close association with ethyl abuse has been observed. The use of radiological examinations such as ultrasound, computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging is helpful for the differential diagnosis. There are two classifications mainly used: The Enzi classification and the Donhauser classification. In this article we present a case of MD with laryngeal localization. A 50-year-old man was referred to our department complaining of dysphonia for about 6 months. An abnormal and diffuse enlargement of the anterior part of the neck was noticed, compatible with “Madelung’s Collar”. Fiberoptic examination of the larynx revealed the presence of a lipomatous-like neoformation of the left false vocal cord. The patient underwent surgical removal of the laryngeal neoformation with transoral laser microsurgery. With this article we suggest a possible diagnostic and therapeutic procedure for the treatment of laryngeal lipomatosis. Keywords: Lipoma; TML; Larynx; Dysphonia; ENT

✓ Carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) in serum and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) was measured in four patients with intracranial teratoma. The CEA levels were elevated in the CSF of two patients, but were within normal limits in the serum of all four. After surgical removal of the teratomas, which were verified as mature teratomas, CEA was localized by an immunohistochemical method. Positive reactions both to anti-CEA serum and to another anti-CEA serum absorbed with nonspecific cross-reacting antigen were seen in glandular structures, with or without goblet cells, and in some portions of stratified squamous epithelium. It is concluded that CEA, detected in CSF, may originate in mature teratomas, and CEA-positive structures (especially glandular) may differentiate into gastrointestinal tract structures. An examination of serum and CSF levels of CEA may offer additional clues to the diagnosis of intracranial germ-cell tumors.

The loss of one eye may be due to a congenital defect, pathology or trauma requiring the surgical removal of eyeball. This causes significant physical and emotional disturbance to the patient. Psychological distress can be reduced by timely replacement with an artificial eye. This preliminary report describes the fabrication of the custom made acrylic resin ocular prosthesis (CMAROP) with a modified technique where a stock eye shell has been used to fabricate a custom ocular impression tray. Try in was done on the same day. The CMAROP achieves intimate contact with the tissue bed and creates functional and esthetically pleasing results.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3126/jucms.v2i4.12068Journal of Universal College of Medical Sciences (2014) Vol.02 No.04 Issue 08Page: 41-44

Calcifying Fibrous Pseudotumor

Neck masses, frequently encountered by physicians, comprise a vast range of diagnoses, with malignancy being the greatest concern. Calcifying fibrous pseudotumor (CFP) is a rare lesion with unknown pathogenesis, characterized pathologically by a predominance of abundant hyalinized collagenous tissue with focal lymphoplasmacytic infiltrate and psammomatous or dystrophic calcifications. We present the case of a 29-year-old woman who presented with a 4-cm left neck mass, accompanied by constitutional symptoms of vague weakness and lethargy. After the lesion failed to respond to a course of antibiotic therapy, fine-needle aspiration was performed, the pathology of which was indeterminate. The concern was that the lesion was a lymphoproliferative disorder–further workup was performed. CT of the chest, abdomen, and pelvis revealed no evidence of adenopathy or neoplasms. Subsequently, an incisional biopsy was performed, suggesting a diagnosis of CFP. Magnetic resonance imaging with contrast, performed to delineate the anatomy, revealed the lesion in the left neck, deep to the left clavicle, that extended superiorly into the supraclavicular fossa. Complete surgical removal of the lesion was successfully performed, with immunophenotyping confirming the initial diagnosis of CFP. We present a case report of cervical CFP, discuss the approach to neck masses, and review the recent literature on this rare, benign entity.

Histomorphological studies of the digestive system of Alestes baremoze captured from Lake Albert, Uganda, were done using standard procedures. These revealed that A. baremoze has a fleshy-lipped terminal small mouth, large molar, short oesophagus, a three-lobed liver, pouch-like stomach, a nine-fingered caeca, and a long tubular intestine. A stratified squamous epithelium with numerous mucus-secreting cells lined the lips with no taste buds. Stratified squamous epithelia lined the oesophagus in the anterior portion which turned into a columnar epithelium towards the stomach. The lamina propria had numerous tubular glands throughout the entire oesophageal length. The stomach consisted of three distinct regions (cardiac, fundic, and pyloric) with distinguished lamina propria glands. The intestinal mucosa was thrown into villi of varying heights, with the tallest in the anterior part, lined with a simple columnar epithelium with numerous lymphocytes-like infiltrations. Numerous goblet cells appeared in the intestinal lamina epithelialis; these increased uniformly towards the anal opening. The liver was divided into lobules, with a central vein. Hepatocytes were visibly arranged closely, forming irregular cords, and the scattered tubular acinar glands formed the exocrine pancreas (hepatopancreas). Stomach content analysis indicated that the fish eats plankton, mollusks, crustaceans, and insects as the main proportion of its diet.
