Sigmoid volvulus in acromegalic patients is very rare. Here we report a case of sigmoid volvulus in an acromegalic patient who refused surgical treatment for pituitary macroadenoma after initial diagnosis five years back. Sigmoid volvulus was managed successfully by emergency laparotomy and sigmoid colectomy followed by primary end to end anastomosis. Six weeks later she underwent endonasal transsphenoidal removal of pituitary tumor. Postoperatively she improved gradaully and Post operative MRI of brain showed no residual tumor but still her serum GH level is high even after 12 months. So we advised her for radiotherapy. She is scheduled for regular follow up with clinical and investigational assessments.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/jom.v15i1.19882 J Medicine 2014; 15: 84-86

Aggressive angiomyxoma is a rare tumour that frequently involves the perineal region with a high risk of local recurrence. This is a case report of a 24-year-old female patient with a genital prolapse. We performed a surgical treatment. Histological examination found an aggressive angiomyxoma. The tumour recurred 1 year after surgery. Long-term follow-up is necessary.

Introduction. Odontogenic keratocyst (OKC) is a rare developmental, epithelial and benign cyst of the jaws of odontogenic origin with high recurrence rates. The third molar region, especially the angle of the mandible and the ascending ramus are involved far more frequently than the maxilla. The choice of treatment approach was based on the size of the cyst, recurrence status, and radiographic evidence of cortical perforation. Different surgical treatment options like marsupialization, decompression, enucleation, enucleation with Carnoy?s solution, peripheral ostectomy with or without Carnoy?s solution, and jaw resection have been discussed in the literature with variable rates of recurrence. Case report. We presented a 52-yearold male with orthokeratinized odontogenic keratocyst. Elliptical unilocular radiolucency located in the third molar region and the ascending ramus of the mandible, 40 ? 25 mm in diameter with radiographic evidence of cortical perforation at the anterior ramus border of the mandible 20 mm in diameter, was registrated on orthopantomographic radiography. Surgical treatment included enucleation of the cyst and peripheral ostectomy with the use of Carnoy?s solution and excision of the overlying attached mucosa. Postoperatively, no paresthesia in the inervation area of the inferior alveolaris nerve was registrated. Recurrences were not registrated within 5 years post-intervention. Coclusion. Treatment of odontogenic keratocyst with enucleation and peripheral ostectomy with the use of Carnoy?s solution and excision of the overlying attached mucosa had a very low rate of recurrence. Radical and more aggressive surgical treatments as jaw resection should be reserved for multiple recurrent cysts and when OKC is associated with nevoid basal cell carcinoma syndrome (NBCCS). Following the treatment protocol in the management of OKC and systematic and long-term postsurgical follow-up are considered key elements for successful results.

AbstractObjective:We report two extremely rare cases of symptomatic nasopharyngeal branchial cleft cyst treated by powered instrument assisted marsupialisation.Methods:Case report and literature review concerning nasopharyngeal branchial cleft cyst and surgical treatment methods.Results:The first case was a two-year-old boy with a 1 × 2 cm, cystic, oropharyngeal mass, who also had severe snoring and sleep apnoea. The second case was a 56-year-old man with right nasal obstruction and a sensation of fullness in the right ear. In both cases, we performed endoscopic marsupialisation using a powered instrument. There was no recurrence in either case over two years of follow up.Conclusion:Powered instrument marsupialisation is a simple, effective and less invasive technique for the treatment of nasopharyngeal branchial cleft cyst.

Odontogenic Origin

Cutaneous draining sinus tracts of odontogenic origin often are a diagnostic challenge. A delay in correctly diagnosing these types of lesions can result in unnecessary antibiotic therapy and surgical treatment. This case report presents the clinical course of two cases with extra-oral sinus tract formation, from diagnosis and treatment to short-term follow-up and evaluation. These facial lesions were initially misdiagnosed as lesions of non-odontogenic origin. Later on an odontogenic cause was identified and endodontic intervention resulted in resolution of the problem, confirming the initial misdiagnosis.

Endodontic Retreatment

AbstractNon-surgical endodontic retreatment should always be the first option for reintervention when the initial endodontic treatment fails. The surgical treatment, called periradicular surgery, will be the procedure of choice when there is no success after the conventional endodontic retreatment. The purpose of this article is to describe clinical case of endodontic surgery, associated with guided tissue regeneration (GTR). A male patient, 24 years old, was referred for endodontic surgery on tooth 12 after two unsuccessful endodontic interventions. During the surgery, osteotomy, lesion curettage, apicectomy, retrograde obturation with Mineral Trioxide Aggregate (MTA), and filling of the bone failure with lyophilized bone and reabsorbable collagen membrane were performed. After six months of follow-up, the patient did not present any type of painful symptomatology. The endodontic surgery, associated with a technique of guided tissue regeneration, was efficient to solve this clinical case. Keywords: Endodontics. Apicoectomy. Guided Tissue Regeneration. Resumo O retratamento endodôntico não cirúrgico deve sempre ser a primeira opção de reintervenção quando o tratamento endodôntico inicial falha. Já o tratamento cirúrgico, ou cirurgia parendodôntica, será o procedimento de escolha quando não há sucesso após o retratamento endodôntico convencional. O objetivo deste artigo é descrever um caso clínico de cirurgia parendodôntica, associada à regeneração tecidual guiada (RTG). O paciente, gênero masculino, 24 anos, foi encaminhado para cirurgia parendodôntica no dente 12 após duas intervenções endodônticas sem sucesso. Durante a cirurgia foram realizadas manobras de osteotomia, curetagem da lesão, apicectomia, obturação retrógrada com Mineral Trióxido Agregado (MTA), além de preenchimento da falha óssea com osso liofilizado e membrana de colágeno reabsorvível. Após seis meses de acompanhamento do caso, o paciente não apresentou nenhum tipo de sintomatologia dolorosa. A cirurgia parendodôntica, associada à técnica de regeneração tecidual guiada, foi eficiente para solucionar este caso clínico. Palavras-chave: Endodontia. Apicectomia. Regeneração Tecidual Guiada.
