Introduction: Goldenhar syndrome is an oculoauriculovertebral spectrum attributed to the developmental anomalies of the first and second brachial arches. Its typical presentation in children with hemifacial microsomia poses a dual challenge for the anaesthesiologist on account of difficult airway often compounded with systemic abnormalities. Case report: We describe a case report wherein a 5 year female presented to the oculoplastic clinic of our hospital for surgical removal of limbal dermoid under general anaesthesia. Airway examination revealed classical facial asymmetry with underdevelopment of jaw bone coupled with protruding incisors. A predicted difficult airway, more so in a child led us to choose an anaesthesia technique with preservation of spontaneous breathing and planned use of supraglottic device in the form of an I Gel for airway management. Conclusion: The aim of this case report is to highlight the anaesthetic implications of this not so uncommon entity presenting to ophthalmology and ENT clinics. A thorough preoperative assessment, adequate preparedness and alternative plans are keys for successful airway management in such syndromic children. Keywords: Goldenhar syndrome, hemifacial microsomia, I Gel

A 7 years old boy was diagnosed a case of Goldenhar Syndrome. He presented with swelling in the upper and outer part of the left eye as limbal dermoid associated with preauricular tags, hemifacial asymmetry, microtia and small chin since birth. His vertebral anomalies also detected by skiagram of the vertebral column as spina bifida. His ocular and auricular problems were solved by surgery without any complicatons. Patient is leading a normal life. DOI: 10.3329/jbcps.v28i3.6515J Bangladesh Coll Phys Surg 2010; 28: 193-195

Keratin granulomas in the peritoneum are a rare finding with multiple etiologies and can be especially challenging for both the pathologist and the surgeon when these lesions are grossly visible. We report a case of a unique frozen section diagnostic scenario of evaluation of keratin granulomas in the peritoneum of a 47-year-old woman in the setting of multiple potential culprits: endometrial endometrioid adenocarcinoma following fertility sparing treatment, and a concurrent dermoid cyst. We discuss the various etiologies of keratin granulomas in the peritoneum, mechanism of their formation, diagnostic significance, as well as implications of fertility sparing treatments. To the best of our knowledge, this is the only case of keratin granulomas in the peritoneum with multiple distinct potential pathologic culprits as well the only case following fertility sparing treatment.

Introduction: Intracranial dermoid cysts are rare, congenital and, benign lesions. The etiology of these lesions is related to an embryonic defect during neurulation. Case presentation: The present study describes a case of a 3-year-old girl with a giant cerebellar dermoid cyst, which initially manifested as hydrocephalus. Discussion: We discuss its epidemiological characteristics as well as diagnostic and therapeutic management. The combination of high clinical suspicion, anamnesis, thorough physical examination, and adequate interpretation of neuroimaging data is crucial for the early diagnosis and timely therapeutic intervention for such cysts. Conclusion: Surgical approach involving complete lesion resection considerably improves prognosis.
