Non-ossifying fibroma (NOF) is a benign expansive lytic lesion more frequently found in children and adolescents at the metaphysis of long bones in and around the knee joint, typically resolving spontaneously or by ossification. This report presents a rare case of an 11-year-old child with a pathological subtrochanteric femur fracture attributed to an underlying NOF. We describe the diagnosis and surgical management of curettage and internal fixation using a proximal humerus locking plate, resulting in complete resorption of the lytic zone and an excellent clinical outcome.

- The study investigates the clinical profiles and outcomes of patients diagnosed with deep neck space infections (DNSI), emphasizing the need for early surgical intervention and effective airway management.
- It highlights the primary causes of DNSI, which include nodal and odontogenic origins, and stresses that untreated underlying issues could lead to recurrent infections, increasing risks of morbidity and mortality.
- The research evaluated 20 patients in India, finding that the majority were male, with diabetes being a common risk factor; most cases were of nodal origin, with significant involvement of the submandibular space and the Streptococcus species identified as a common pathogen.
Nanoparticles are a significant topic due to their applications in various fields, including biology, optics, catalysis, pharmaceutics, health, agriculture, and industry, with biosynthesis processes being quick, easy, and environmentally friendly. Due to their applications across multiple industries, silver nanoparticles, or AgNPs, have become the most desired nanoparticles with the recent development of nanotechnology. The physical, chemical, and biological characteristics of AgNPs are being studied.

Dermatoglyphics, the study of ridge patterns on fingers, has been linked to various genetic and developmental conditions. Similarly, primary canine relationships provide insights into dental health and potential orthodontic needs.
