El divertículo de Meckel es un remanente congénito localizado en el ileum distal, el cual resulta de un defecto en el cierre del saco de Yolk. Esta anomalía es comunmente detectada en la poblacion pediátrica antes de los 2 años de edad. Por lo tanto, es una causa extraña de obstrucción intestinal y de mortalidad en adultos. Este es el reporte de un individuo de 26 años con 3 dias de fiebre y seis dias de dolor abdominal y vómito continuo. La laparotomía exploratoria demostró la presencia de una diverticulitis de Merkel y signos de obstrucción intestinal. Se realizó la resección del divertículo y parte del ileum afectado, seguido por anastomosis ileo-ileal. Sin embargo, el curso clinico del paciente se deterioró rápidamente debido al desarrollo de falla renal aguda y multiorgánica. Estas complicaciones llevaron al fallecimiento del paciente en su cuarto dia postoperatorio. En conclusión, la baja frecuencia de esta anomalía en adultos dificulta su diagnostico oportuno, teniendo como consecuencia un aumento en la mortalidad de estos casos clínicos. Meckel’s diverticulum is a congenital outpouching located in the distal ileum which occurs due to the failure of obliteration of the yolk stalk. The peak age in which this anomaly is mostly found is the paediatric age especially below the age of 2.  Hence it is noted as an uncommon cause of intestinal obstruction and fatality in adult life. This is a case report of a 26 year old man with abdominal pain and vomiting for 6 days associated with fever for 3 days. Emergency laparotomy revealed Meckel’s diverticulitis with small bowel obstruction. Meckel’s diverculectomy with ileal resection and ileoileal anastamosis was performed. However, the patient developed renal dysfunction leading to Multiorgan Dysfunction Syndrome and died on the 4th post operative day. This anatomical anomaly is rare in adult patients and is difficult to diagnose early due to its bizarre presentation resulting in high mortality. Hence we find this case of interest.

The palate-gingival grooves are an anatomical anomaly in maxillary incisors, which might result in local periodontal pocket formation, bone loss and sometimes pulpal necrosis. In the present case, there was a groove on the palatal side of a maxillary lateral incisor with vital pulp. The periodontal problem of the tooth was treated and the 6-month postoperative follow-up showed attachment gain and decreased pocket depth.

Purpose Misophonia is a sound tolerance disorder condition in certain sounds that trigger intense emotional or physiological responses. While some persons may experience misophonia, a few patients suffer from misophonia. However, there is a dearth of literature on audiological assessment and management of persons with misophonia. The purpose of this report is to discuss the assessment of misophonia and highlight the management option that helped a patient with misophonia. Method A case study of a 26-year-old woman with the complaint of decreased tolerance to specific sounds affecting quality of life is reported. Audiological assessment differentiated misophonia from hyperacusis. Management included retraining counseling as well as desensitization and habituation therapy based on the principles described by P. J. Jastreboff and Jastreboff (2014). A misophonia questionnaire was administered at regular intervals to monitor the effectiveness of therapy. Results A detailed case history and audiological evaluations including pure-tone audiogram and Johnson Hyperacusis Index revealed the presence of misophonia. The patient benefitted from intervention, and the scores of the misophonia questionnaire indicated a decrease in the severity of the problem. Conclusions It is important to differentially diagnose misophonia and hyperacusis in persons with sound tolerance disorders. Retraining counseling as well as desensitization and habituation therapy can help patients who suffer from misophonia.

This case report describes the positive outcome of a therapeutic intervention that integrated an intensive, residential component with follow-up telepractice for a 21 year old male who stutters. This therapy utilized an eclectic approach to intensive therapy in conjunction with a 12-month follow-up via video telepractice. The results indicated that the client benefited from the program as demonstrated by a reduction in percent stuttered syllables, a reduction in stuttering severity, and a change in attitudes and feelings related to stuttering and speaking.

Real-time amplitude contour and spectral displays were used in teaching speech production skills to a profoundly deaf, nonspeaking boy. This child had a visual attention problem, a behavior problem, and a poor academic record. In individual instruction, he was first taught to produce features of speech, for example, friction, nasal, and stop, which are present in vocalizations of 6- to 9-month-old infants, and then to combine these features in syllables and words. He made progress in speech, although sign language and finger spelling were taught at the same time. Speech production skills were retained after instruction was terminated. The results suggest that deaf children are able to extract information about the features of speech from visual displays, and that a developmental sequence should be followed as far as possible in teaching speech production skills to them.

On page 112 of the report by Wilson, Oldring, and Mueller ("Recurrent Laryngeal Nerve Dissection: A Case Report Involving Return of Spastic Dysphonia after Initial Surgery," pp. 112-118), the paraphrase from Cooper (1971), "if the patients are carefully selected and are willing to remain in therapy for a long period of time," was inadvertantly put in quotation marks.
