Gestational Week

Fetal ovarian cysts (FOC) are the most common intra-abdominal masses during fetal ultrasonography performed on the fetus. With conservative follow-up after detection, it is usually seen that it shrinks and disappears within a few months after birth without any procedure. Although the earliest period in which FOC can be detected is reported as the 19th gestational week, most FOCs are diagnosed at 28th gestational week. FOCs that do not shrink during follow-up and have a cyst appearance complicated by imaging tests may cause ovarian torsion, ovarian loss and infertility. In this study, it is aimed to discuss FOC diagnosis and treatment methods according to the current literature in the light of case reports.

AbstractCardiac osteosarcoma metastasis is extremely rare and is documented in several case reports in the literature. The behaviour of osteosarcoma metastases is similar to the primary tumour. Thoracic non-enhanced computed tomography (CT) examination is beneficial in the detection of calcific cardiac metastases. In this case report, we describe a 29-year-old woman with cardiac osteosarcoma metastasis after 7 years of follow-up, compare the demographic features with previous cases and discuss the imaging findings.

Chilaiditi Syndrome

Background. Chilaiditi syndrome is a phenomenon where there is an interposition of the colon between the liver and the abdominal wall leading to clinical symptoms. This is distinct from Chilaiditi sign for which there is radiographic evidence of the interposition, but is asymptomatic. Case Presentation. Here, we present the case of a patient who, despite having clinical symptoms for a decade, had a delayed diagnosis presumably due to the interposition being intermittent and episodic. Conclusions. This case highlights the fact that Chilaiditi syndrome may be intermittent and episodic in nature. This raises an interesting question of whether previous case reports, which describe complete resolution of the syndrome after nonsurgical intervention, are perhaps just capturing periods of resolution that may have occurred spontaneously. Because the syndrome may be intermittent with spontaneous resolution and then recurrence, patients should have episodic follow-up after nonsurgical intervention.

ABSTRACT The ameloblastic fibro-odontoma is a benign, mixed, asymptomatic and rare odontogenic tumor that can easily be confused radiographically and histologically with other diseases. Usually it affects a population between the first and second decades of life, is more frequent in the mandible and shows predilection for males. This lesion, characterized by dental agenesis at the tumor site, has no predilection for anatomical region; however, an increase of intraoral volume may cause mild facial asymmetry. It shows slow but expansive growth, and is a well-defined radiolucent lesion, usually unilocular, with radiopacity inside. Normally surgical removal is conservative and the prognosis is favorable. This article reports a case of ameloblastic fibro-odontoma treated by surgical removal and follow-up of two years. The aim of this work was to study the ameloblastic fibro-odontoma in its entirety, seeking to inform clinicians about the best diagnostic and treatment methods for this type lesion.

CONTEXT: Posterior urethral valve (PUV) is a widely known condition affecting males that generally presents prenatally or at birth. PUVs have also been occasionally described in literature in cases diagnosed during adolescence or adulthood. CASE REPORT: This report presents two late PUV cases, one in a teenager and the other in an adult. Both cases had had clinical signs of urinary tract infection and obstructive urinary symptoms. The diagnoses were made by means of voiding cystourethrography and urethrocystoscopy. Endoscopic valve fulguration was the treatment chosen for both. Their follow-up was uneventful.

Rare Side Effect

Introduction Anti-angiogenic treatment in adjunct with chemotherapy is widely used for the treatment of various cancers. These agents inhibit vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) signaling thereby inhibiting tumor proliferation and invasion. Dysphonia, or voice changes, has been documented, but is an underreported side effect of anti-angiogenic agents. We report a case of intermittent dysphonia in a patient with metastatic, platinum-refractory ovarian cancer treated with bevacizumab. Case report A 48-year-old female with high grade mixed type ovarian adenocarcinoma and concurrent left sided breast cancer was transitioned to palliative therapy with gemcitabine-bevacizumab for her ovarian cancer. At a follow-up visit after three cycles of the new therapy, the patient complained of intermittent changes in her voice, describing periods of hoarseness or softness in her voice after the chemotherapy—sometimes to the point that her voice was inaudible. Management and outcome: A new pelvic thrombus was discovered upon assessment of the patient’s disease. Bevacizumab was held and she was referred to ear, nose, and throat evaluation for dysphonia. Laryngoscopic examination showed normal vocal cord, with normal movements and no lesion or necrosis. During subsequent follow-up, the patient reported improvement in her voice with no additional dysphonia. Discussion Vocal adverse effects of anti-VEGF agents have been documented in landmark trials and case reports; however, clinicians are often unaware of this rare side effect. Although VEGF-induced dysphonia may be rare and may not impede the patient’s quality of life in some cases, it is critical to acknowledge and not underestimate this adverse effect.

Permanent Molar

Traditionally, immature teeth diagnosed with necrotic pulp and periapical periodontitis were treated by apexification with long-term calcium hydroxide or in one session with mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) or Biodentine apical plug. However, these teeth become fragile and susceptible to root fracture. Regenerative endodontic procedure is a new therapeutic approach that promotes continuation of root growth in immature necrotic teeth potentially preventing root fracture. Only few case reports have shown the success of this procedure on molar cases. The current case report demonstrates a regeneration of a lower first molar with necrotic pulp and chronic apical abscess treated with Micro Mega-MTA (MM-MTA), a new endodontic biomaterial that has not been described previously. Calcium hydroxide was used as an intracanal medicament for two weeks. Next, calcium hydroxide was removed and after blood clot creation, MM-MTA® was placed over it. Apical healing and continuation of root growth were evident at nine months follow-up. CBCT at two years follow-up confirmed apical closure and complete healing. This case shows that a regenerative endodontic procedure for management of an immature necrotic permanent molar is feasible and can be successfully done using Ca(OH)2 and MM-MTA.
