Congenital epulis: a rare diagnosis of newborn.

Congenital epulis is a rare benign soft tissue lesion that occurs exclusively in neonates and usually develops from the alveolar mucosa at the frontal region of the maxilla. Lesions may be sessile or pedunculated, normal in color or reddish and vary in size from a few millimeters to a few centimeters. Although spontaneous regression has also been reported, surgical excision is indicated for large tumors that may obstruct the airway and make feeding the child difficult.

Total temporomandibular joint replacement in recurrent temporomandibular joint ankylosis: a case report.

Total temporomandibular joint replacement (TMJR) is a surgical procedure in which end-stage temporomandibular joint disorders are replaced with an alloplastic prosthesis between the mandible and the base of the skull when autogenous grafts are inadvisable. These alloplastic prostheses may be available as stock or custom-made prostheses consisting of the mandibular condyle and glenoid fossa components. Although the first total temporomandibular joint prosthesis was used in the 1960s, we present the case of a 20-year-old female patient, probably the first case of total temporomandibular joint arthroplasty in Nepal, performed at Dhulikhel Hospital in Kavrepalanchok.
