Parry Romberg syndrome (PRS) is a rare disorder, characterized by unilateral facial atrophy of the skin, subcutaneous fat, muscles, cartilages, and even bone. Various systemic manifestations re­ported with this syndrome are neurologic, maxillofacial, and ophthalmologic. The etiology is still unknown. Herein we present a case report of 23 years young engineering student who had PRS and got a fracture of the right angle of his mandible after a road traffic accident. The treatment was challenging as he had nonunion at the fracture site.

Thoracic Injury

SummaryThe case records of 300 dogs presented for fracture repair following road traffic accident (RTA) or other trauma were studied to determine possible relationships between specific patterns of skeletal trauma and the prevalence of thoracic wall and pulmonary injury.A significantly greater proportion of dogs involved in RTA (31%) sustained thoracic trauma compared ro those injured by other means (2.4%). Although RTA cases were more likely to suffer multiple fractures (23%), there was no significant relationship between the incidence and distribution of a fracture(s) and radiographic evidence of thoracic trauma.Of those dogs with thoracic trauma, pneumothorax and pulmonary contusion were the most frequent injuries; more than one type of injury occurred in 43% of these cases.Clinical management was altered as a result of thoracic injury in 24% of these cases.In a retrospective survey of 300 dogs presented for fracture repair, there was no significant relationship between fracture pattern and the prevalence of thoracic trauma. Following road traffic accident, radio-graphic examination revealed thoracic trauma in 31% of dogs. Clinical management was modified as a result of thoracic injury in 24% of cases.

<p class="abstract">Foreign body in paranasal sinus is rare. Very few cases have been reported of lodgement of foreign body in paranasal sinuses. Garces and Norris reported that 70% of these foreign bodies usually appeared after maxillofacial traumas and 30% appeared during or after dental procedures of maxilla. Foreign bodies are less common in the frontal sinus as compared to maxillary sinus. This is a case of foreign body in frontal sinus in an eighteen-year-old gentleman after a road traffic accident.</p>
