This is a rare case report of a 5-month-old child with a complex spinal dysraphic state, and an accessory limb (tripedus morphology), accessory genitalia, and anal dimple. The child was brought to the hospital with an accessory limb arising from the back. On clinical examination, an accessory limb arising from the lower back with a partially developed foot with the presence of toes and nails was noted. Spinal MRI was advised which revealed dysraphic features including spina bifida with the low lying and posteriorly tethered cord with diastematomyelia along with a supernumerary appendage attached to the vertebral column having rudimentary bones resembling those of extremities. The presence of an accessory limb with spinal dysraphism is quite a rare anomaly. The condition can be treated by surgical intervention and involves excision of the accessory limb with adequate dural and paraspinal muscle cover.

Aplasia cutis congenita is an uncommon localized or widespread congenital skin condition characterized by the absence of the skin, and occasionally underlying tissues occurs in about one every 10.000 birth mostly in the scalp as single or more than one lesion and sometimes occurs in extremities and trunk with an uncertain cause and can be associated with numerous syndromes or can be sporadic which is diagnosed clinically and usually conservatively managed but sometimes surgical intervention needed. In this literature, we present nonsyndromic newborn Malay girl normally delivered with 35 weeks gestational age with triplet skin raw areas at the vertex of the scalp with well-demarcated defect round in shape measured about 0.5 in radius covered with a noninflammatory, necrotic patch. To our knowledge, many works of literatures presented Aplasia cutis congenita at the scalp with solitary single or occasionally more than one skin defect. In contrast, in our case, we present an infrequent rare case of triplet skin defect of aplasia cutis congenita for nonsyndromic newborns.

Introduction Foreign body ingestion is an ENT emergency frequently encountered in both children and adults. Case Report A case of an open safety pin in the hypopharynx in a fifteen year old boy is reported, which remained impacted there for the past 15 days without any significant symptom or complication. CT scan, performed before surgical intervention, did not show any migration of this foreign body from its intraluminal site. This was removed by ‘Magill forceps technique’. Postoperative period was uneventful. Conclusion Pointed foreign body may present with negligible symptoms and that too may stay in the cricopharynx for long without migration. Magill forceps technique can be a good surgical option in such cases.

ABSTRACTMyelocystocele is a rare form of spinal dysraphism. Thoracic myelocystocele is still rarer. The occurrence of thoracic myelocystocele associated with type-1 split cord malformation, low lying tethered cord, dorsal syrinx and spina bifida is extremely rare. Clinical presentation of such a rare case and an early surgical management is discussed briefly.

Congenital missing or absence of 6 or less teeth is known as Hypodontia which is a usual part of more complex set of developmental problems. Most cases of tooth agenesis involve hypodontia. In reference to second premolar, agenesis of a single second premolar is the most common form and occurrence of agenesis of four second premolars in both maxilla and mandible is not a very common condition.The purpose of this report is to describe a case of agenesis of a four second premolars in all the four quadrants in a 17 year old boy.Patient referred to the pediatric dentistry department as achief complaint of pain in the left lower back tooth region since one week. Clinical examination revealed the retained four primary second molars in both the arches of right and left sides and orthopantamograph confirmed the diagnosis. Pulpectomy was performed in maxillary left as well as mandibular left and right pimary molars and maxillary right second molar was grossly decayed which was extracted. In addition to case report, this article discusses possible etiological factors along with various treatment modalities.Journal of Biomedical Sciences 2015;2(2):12-16

Background: Nevus lipomatosus cutaneous superficialis (NLCS) of Hoffmann–Zurhelle is a benign idiopathic hamartoma. There are two types of NLCS, multiple and solitary. They are found in the abdomen, lower back, buttocks, hips, upper posterior thighs, and pelvis. The diagnosis can be evaluated with a typical histopathological of mature fat cells in the dermis, with 10%–50% of the dermis. Case Report: We reported a case of NLCS with clinical papules and multiple nodules on the buttocks since the age of 6 years with a history of lipoma removal. The dermoscopic examination was conducted to confirm the diagnosis. The histopathological examination showed a dominant sclerotic fibroma with two sessions of biopsy and a few mature fats on the dermis after deeper cuts paraffin block. Cryotherapy with an open spray method is treatment of choice in this patient. Discussion: The appearance of the dermis in NLCS can be normal or an increase in collagen. Interestingly, collagen has sclerosis partially and resembles sclerotic fibroma never been reported. NLCS increases the amount of collagen; however, collagen as sclerosis remains obscure. The features of NLCS histopathological with other morphological abnormalities in the dermis have been reported, such as NLCS with perifollicular fibroma (PF) features. The sclerotic fibroma features are other morphological abnormalities in NLCS, as reported in the PF.

ABSTRACT Sialolithiasis is a pathological process that affects the major salivary glands. It consists of calcifications that obstruct the parenchyma of the gland and / or the lumen of the ducts. The 37 years old female patient, VBB, leucoderma, attended the stomatology service with a complaint of swelling in the floor of mouth, which she noticed 10 years ago. The clinical and radiographic exams indicated a diagnosis of multiple sialolithiasis in the left submandibular gland duct. Surgical intervention was indicated in this case. Amongst all sialolithiasis cases, 80% affect the submandibular glands. Of these, 70% are isolated sialoliths. Only 5% of cases present more than 3 calcifications. This study aims to report the diagnosis and treatment of a rare case of multiple sialoliths located in the duct of the submandibular gland, which were surgically removed via intraoral access.
