Remember the teeth! Cutaneous manifestation of odontogenic sepsis: A case study.

We present the case of a 21-year-old male with a 3-year history of an isolated 1 × 1 cm purulent lesion on the left cheek, on a background of mild acne. Despite topical treatments, the lump persisted, discharging frank pus regularly. Microbiology swabs and an incisional biopsy were unremarkable.

Acute Haemorrhagic Oedema of Infancy (AHOI): A Case Report.

Acute haemorrhagic oedema of infancy (AHOI) is a benign variant of leukocytoclastic vasculitis which occurs in children up to 2 years of age. It is considered by some to be a variant of Henoch-Schönlein purpura with its hallmark of prominent facial swelling, purpuric rash without visceral involvement, in an otherwise well child. This condition is well recognised in the paediatric and dermatology literature but despite its impressive facial features, often mimicking more serious pathology like orbital cellulitis, to our knowledge AHOI has not been published in the Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery literature.

Demyelinating focal motor neuropathy of the ulnar nerve masquerading as compression in Guyon's canal: a case report.

Ulnar nerve-innervated intrinsic muscle weakness, in the absence of sensory complaints or deficits, usually is the result of compression at the ulnar nerve in zone II of Guyon's canal. In rare instances the problem is not caused by a compressive neuropathy but by a demyelinating focal motor neuropathy. Demyelinating neuropathies have been well documented in the neurologic literature but they have received little attention in the hand surgery literature.
