Article Synopsis
- The adenomatoid odontogenic tumor (AOT) is a rare type of jaw tumor, making up about 0.1% of jaw tumors and 3% of odontogenic tumors, as highlighted in this review.
- The case study discusses a 13-year-old boy who had a painless swelling in the left maxilla, which was diagnosed through imaging and treated successfully by enucleation and bone grafting.
- It emphasizes the importance of accurate diagnosis using clinical, radiographical, and pathological methods to distinguish AOT from other conditions for effective management.
Context: Oral Lichen planus (OLP) is a chronic, debilitating, immune-mediated disease whose management is considered a challenge in medical science.
Aims: To quantitatively evaluate the effect of administration of enteral hydroxychloroquine (HCQS) as a monotherapy for six months on the extent and severity of erosive OLP using reticular score, erythema score and ulcerative score (REU score), and to subjectively evaluate the success of HCQS as a therapeutic drug for OLP-e using Tel Aviv-San Francisco Scale, visual analogue scale (VAS) and severity of burning sensation (BURN score).
Settings And Design: Prospective clinical trial.
Previous studies from our department reflected a trend of decreasing incidence of burns culminating from rising income levels, which were bringing about a change in the cooking fuel in many urban households [1,2]. These studies also indicated a changing scenario of increased incidence of burns from LPG mishaps [2]. In the absence of much information on the subject we felt it rather imperative to comparatively study the pattern of burn injuries resulting from LPG and kerosene.
