Value of F-PSMA-PET/MRI for Assessment of Recurring Ranula.

We report the case of a 6-year-old patient with suspected recurrence of a plunging ranula in clinical and ultrasonographic examination. Surgical resection of the left submandibular and sublingual glands had already been performed. Since persistent glandular tissue could not be excluded with certainty via MRI, we expanded diagnostics by performing a PET/MRI using a head and neck imaging protocol and the radiotracer F-PSMA-1007, which is physiologically expressed by salivary gland tissue.

Three-dimensional accuracy of mandibular reconstruction by patient-specific pre-bent reconstruction plates using an "in-house" 3D-printer.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to compare the three-dimensional accuracy of mandibular reconstruction following mandible continuity resection in patients treated with patient-specific, pre-bent reconstruction plates, using an 'in-house' 3D printer, with that in patients treated with conventional, intraoperatively bent plates.

Patients And Methods: We retrospectively analyzed 42 alloplastic mandibular reconstructions following continuity resection. 21 patients received patient-specific, pre-bent reconstruction plates using an in-house 3D printer.

DOCK6 mutations are responsible for a distinct autosomal-recessive variant of Adams-Oliver syndrome associated with brain and eye anomalies.

Adams-Oliver syndrome (AOS) is characterized by the association of aplasia cutis congenita with terminal transverse limb defects, often accompanied by additional cardiovascular or neurological features. Both autosomal-dominant and autosomal-recessive disease transmission have been observed, with recent gene discoveries indicating extensive genetic heterogeneity. Mutations of the DOCK6 gene were first described in autosomal-recessive cases of AOS and only five DOCK6-related families have been reported to date.
