BACKGROUND: Facial reticular blue veins are of esthetic concern. Most often these veins develop on the lower lids. The safest and most effective way of treatment is by vascular lasers.CASE REPORT: We report on a successful reticular vein treatment using a long-pulsed 1064 nm Nd: YAG laser. We present a follow-up of 8 years with constant esthetic improvement without unwanted adverse events.CONCLUSION: There was no relapse demonstrating the efficacy of Nd: YAG laser.

Mandibular full-arch restoration is a good and successful treatment option for totally edentulous patients. In the past years, several studies have described the placement of 4 to 6 implants to restore this type of case; however, an option using 3 dental implants placed in strategic and specific positions could also be an alternative. Therefore, this case report describes a full-arch rehabilitation on 3 straight, immediately loaded implants after 8 years of follow-up. The restoration presented no biological or technical complications during this follow-up period, showing that an adequate treatment plan was able to allow good results using this treatment option.

Introduction: Nevus spilus (NS) are seen in 0.2% to 2.3% of the population and have 0,13% to 0,2% risk for malignant transformation. Clinical, dermoscopic, and histhopatological features were describe in this case report in order to be easily recognize NS. Although NS is a benign cutaneous anomaly it has potential malignant transformation and requires regular follow up. Case Report: A case of nevus spilus in 23 years-old female was reported. There were multiple asymptomatic brownish pigmented spots over brownish patch on left cheek which gradually increased in number and size since 1 year ago. Dermatologic state: brown macules and dark brown papules in a speckled, overlying background café au lait macule. Dermoscopy revealed reticular pattern in background light brown and dark reticuloglobular pattern in dark speckled. Histopathology showed elongation of rete ridges with grouping of melanocyte cells at the tip, and proliferation of nevus cells. Conclution: Patient was planned to treat with Nd-Yag laser.

Introduction: External cervical resorption (ECR) is a physiological or pathological event usually detected on radiographic examination, since there are no symptoms in its initial and intermediate phases. Objectives: This case is an important finding because the early detection of this lesion allowed an effective multidisciplinary approach to be carried out. Case Report: Radiography was taken in a 55-year-old male and revealed a radiolucent area on the distal surface of the permanent mandibular left first molar, suggesting ECR with impaired pulpal vitality. Based on the clinical and radiographic examinations, a multidisciplinary approach was established involving endodontic treatment, periodontal surgery and indirect restoration that provided an option for preserve the affected tooth. The early diagnosis of ECR was essential for the successful treatment in order to maintain the satisfactory function for five-year follow-up. Conclusion: Despite the procedures performed, the idiopathic etiology of the lesion contributed to the appearance of recurrences; however, monitoring and maintenance of the affected tooth proved to be important for the longevity of the treatment.

AbstractObjective:We report a case of lymphangioma circumscriptum of the tongue, a very rare site of occurrence, which was successfully managed with intralesional bleomycin therapy.Method:We present a case report and review of available literature regarding lymphangioma circumscriptum of the tongue and the role of bleomycin therapy.Results:The patient was a 19-year-old man with a long-standing lesion involving the tongue, who presented with spontaneous, episodic bleeding over the previous few months. A diagnosis of lymphangioma circumscriptum was established on biopsy. Intralesional bleomycin injection resulted in successful resolution, and the patient remained asymptomatic over more than one year's follow up.Conclusion:Lymphangioma circumscriptum is usually seen in the extremities and genitals. This case had a very rare site of occurrence, the tongue, and was successfully managed with conservative treatment, using intralesional bleomycin alone.

Introuduction: The prognosis of hepatoblastoma has changed since effective adjuvant chemotherapy had been introduced in 1980's. There is a general agreement that complete resection is the cornerstone of treatment for children with hepapatoblastoma and the only way for eventual cure. Case report: We describe a boy with relapsed hepatoblastoma presenting with elevated-fetoprotein (AFP) and no visible tumor by ultrasound and computed tomography (CT). The relapse was treated with chemotherapy. Second relapse occurred shortly after therapy was completed, but this time we waited for tumor mass to appear. Combined surgery and chemotherapy resulted in remission status with 48 months of follow up. Conclusion: Hepatoblastoma relapse without evidence of tumor is not unusual but its treatment remains controversial. Radiological investigations should be repeated until site of relapse is identified. Based on our experience it seems of no benefit to treat isolated elevation of AFP.
