Rare Case Report

Abstract Segmental resection of the mandible and commandos procedures involve extensive loss of hard and soft tissues, resulting in deviation of the mandible to the defective side and impairment in swallowing, speech, mastication and saliva control due to loss of sensory and motor innervations. Prosthodontic rehabilitation mainly aims the mandibular deviation and “improve the masticatory efficiency. This clinical report describes the use of maxillary occlusal ramps which provide support for the mandibular fragment in the acquired position and help to stabilize the dentures thus improving the masticatory efficiency in edentulous mandibulectomy patients.

ABSTRACT Aim To report on a patient with Eagle's syndrome with a complete and very large ossification of the stylohyoid complex on the right side that to our best knowledge has never been published previously. Background Eagle's syndrome is characterized by a set of symptoms that are caused by the irritation of the neurovascular and soft-tissues caused by an elongated styloid process or ossification of stylohyoid ligament. Case description Because of the high discomfort and pain degree as well as limitations of mandibular and head mobility and also the thickness of the ossified stylohyoid chain, the patient was treated surgically by removing the hypertrophic segment. Conclusion These symptoms subsided completely after the surgical excision of the anomaly. The elongated styloid process on the left side was symptom free. Clinical significance Eagle's syndrome symptoms are not specific and can mimic those of other disorders, the syndrome must be included in the differential diagnosis of patients with pain in the orofacial, pharyngeal and cervical area.

Rare Case Report

The Hemangiopericytoma is a rare vascular tumour originating from the pericytes, which are found on the external surface of the capillaries and are thought to act as a sphincter that controls blood flow. It has a high propensity for recurrence and metastasis.The tumor usually develops as a slowly enlarging painless mass.It typically occurs in the soft tissues of the extremities and trunk, and is rarely seen in the oral cavity.15–16% are seen in the head and neck region.The most common sites of involvement are scalp, face, neck, nasal cavities and paranasal sinuses. Involvement of the palate is extremely rare and so here weare presenting a case of hemangiopericytoma of palate, its diagnosis, management and a brief review of literature.

Rare Case Report

ABSTRACT Extraskeletal osteochondroma in parapharyngeal space is very rare. It is important to note that such a diagnosis be considered when a discrete, ossified mass is localized in soft tissues, even at atypical sites. Its diagnosis is based on radiological and histopathological examination. We should be clinically aware of this benign entity as no malignant transformation or metastasis has been reported. Excision with adequate cuff of tissue is treatment of choice. We did not encounter any case report of osteochondroma in the parapharyngeal space in literature, with our best possible effort.

AbstractDisseminated extramedullary plasmacytoma (EMP) is an unusual entity that has nonspecific imaging features at MRI. Nevertheless, knowledge of its imaging features and unusual locations might help radiologists to suspect it in the appropriate clinical scenario. Some noncontiguous EMPs might mimic lymphoma and MRI would be useful as a problem-solving tool in EMP and would help in treatment planning. We report an unusual cardiac mass in cardiac MRI, a detailed work-up of which led to the diagnosis of multifocal EMP involving the heart, ribs, pancreas, retroperitoneum, and soft tissues of the thigh, rarely reported in the literature.

INTRODUCTION : Distraction osteogenesis was introduced by Ilizarov and further developed by Cataneo et al. The concept of formation of new bone and soft tissues from distraction osteogenesis and freshening the sclerosed bone ends by corticotomy for stronger bony union and consolidation is applied here. Here we present a CASE REPORT : rare case of young adult operated by tibial bone transport using monolateral external xator, who presented to us after refracture near the docking site. We managed this patient with intramedullary reamed nailing and iliac crest autografting, showing good bony union and functional outcome at 3 months postoperatively. CONCLUSION : Thus from previous literature and our case ndings, we conclude that re-fractures and other complications of bone transport can be effectively managed by intramedullary reamed nailing leading to good bony union and fracture consolidation. The intramedullary nail provides rigid stability to both new bone regenerate due to callotasis and union at docking sit, signicantlydecreased rates of future refractures. This signicantly decreases patients morbidity and delivering satisfactory functional outcome.

Rare Case Report

ABSTRACT Background Cellular angiofibromas are rare benign mesenchymal neoplasms characterized by spindle cell component and numerous small vessels. They are commonly well-circumscribed, localized in the superficial soft tissues. The lesion is more frequently seen in the inguinoscrotal or vulvovaginal regions and occurs equally in men and women, and rarely involves oral cavity. Due to its clinical and histological similarity with other mesenchymal tumors, such as angiomyoma, hemangioma, lymphangioma and hemangiopericytoma, angiofibroma presents a diagnostic dilemma. Case report Very few cases of angiofibroma involving maxillofacial region have been reported in the literature. This case report involves cellular angiofibroma involving left buccal mucosa in a 23-year-old female patient. Following detailed clinical examination, radiological interpretation and histopathological diagnosis, surgical excision was performed. The patient was followed-up on a regular basis and was disease free. Summary and conclusion Benign angiofibroma involving oral cavity is a rare tumor. There is a close resemblance of this tumor with other mesenchymal lesions and, thus, faces a diagnostic challenge. Surgical excision with a long-term followup gives good prognosis to this lesion—benign cellular angiofibroma. How to cite this article Bokhari K, Manikandan L, Mohammad A, Shahul M, Bagi MA, Kota Z.
