Pleomorphic adenoma of the parapharyngeal space.

Pleomorphic adenoma of the parapharyngeal space is a rare benign tumor, representing less than 1% of tumors of the parapharyngeal space. Considering the volume of the tumor, the complexity of the space and the potential difficulties of excision, an imaging work-up including at least computed tomography (CT) and/or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and possibly analysis of the vascular axes (angio-MRI, arteriography) is essential. Treatment of these tumors is essentially surgical.

Maxillary intraosseous hemangioma: case report.

Maxillary intraosseous hemangiomas are rare benign vascular lesions, accounting for less than 1% of all primary bone tumors. Clinical examination often reveals a hard, painless swelling mass that is rarely pulsatile. Imaging not only helps to make a positive diagnosis but also contributes to therapeutic management.

Facial infiltrating lipomatosis, a rare cause of facial asymmetry to be known: Case report and literature review.

Facial infiltrating lipomatosis is a rare lipomatous lesion, first described by Slavin in 1983. It is a benign pseudotumor pathology. It corresponds to a non-encapsulated collection of mature adipocytes infiltrating the local tissue and hyperplasia of underlying bone leading to a craniofacial deformity.

Arrested pneumatization of sinus sphenoid, revealed by hypo-acusis: A case report.

The sphenoid bone is a complex structure in terms of its embryological origin. At birth, the sphenoid sinus is not pneumatised. Pneumatisation begins at around 4 months of age until the age of 12-14 years.
