A primary sphenoclival skull base neuroendocrin tumor: A rare case report and literature review.

Introduction And Importance: Primary intracranial neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) are exceedingly rare, often posing diagnostic challenges, particularly in non-secreting variants. These tumors may initially present with nonspecific symptoms, leading to delayed diagnosis and potential neurological complications.

Case Report: We present the case of a 33-year-old male admitted with a one-year history of progressively worsening headache accompanied by acute left ptosis and diplopia.

Odontogenic myxoma of the maxilla: A rare case report and review of the literature.

Introduction: Odontogenic myxoma (OM) is an uncommon benign odontogenic tumor arising from the jaw bone. The diagnosis poses a challenge because its clinical features overlap with those of other benign and malignant neoplasms. Although surgery is usually the choice treatment, there is still some controversy concerning surgical techniques and proper indications.

Validation of a Moroccan Arabic Version of the Tinnitus Handicap Inventory (THI-M).

Objective: Cultural adaptation of the tinnitus handicap inventory questionnaire to the Moroccan dialect version.

Method: We conducted a prospective study over a 3 years period (January 2017-January 2020) in the Otolaryngology Department of Casablanca University hospital. Translation was produced by a forward-backward procedure with analysis of the psychometric properties of the Moroccan version of the tinnitus handicap inventory.

Head and neck paragangliomas: Ten years of experience in a third health center. A cohort study.

Head and neck paragangliomas are rare vascular tumors derived from the paraganglionic system, located at the carotid body, jugular vein, tympanic cavity and vagal nerve. From 2010 to 2020, a cohort of 26 patients divided in two groups, 15 with cervical paragangliomas and 11 with temporal bone paragangliomas, was reviewed by analysing the medical history, the epidemiological and clinical parameters, the imaging results and classification, the modality of treatment and outcome. Cervical paragangliomas present as firm and pulsatile mass with the characteristic aspect of "salt and pepper" on MRI T1 weighted sequences.

A rare case of a laryngeal leiomyosarcoma with a lymph node metastasis.

Introduction: Leiomyosarcoma is a rare mesenchymal tumor that originates from smooth muscle cells. Head and neck LMSs represent only 3% of all leiomyosarcomas with less than 50 cases of laryngeal LMS reported in the literature till now.

Case Presentation: We report a case of 50-year-old male presented at our ENT department for a chronic hoarseness.

Parathyroid lipoadenoma: The particularities of a rare entity a case report and review of the literature.

Parathyroid lipoadenoma is a rare and anusual cause of primary hyperparathyroidism. The clinical presentation usually resembles other causes of primary hyperparathyroidism and the imaging is not always contributory considering its location. However, the histologic criteria are specific.

A rare cause of cervicomediastinal cellulitis: Oesophageal perforation case report.

Esophageal perforation following an impacted foreign body (FB) is a rare and potentially life-threatening condition. Early clinical suspicion and imaging are important for a targeted management to achieve a good outcome. Endoscopic extraction of esophageal FB is a good and safe treatment alternative while the surgical procedure remains a necessary option for many patients.

Supraclavicular lymph node metastases from distant primary tumors: Case reports and review of the literature.

Cervical lymph nodes are a common site of metastases for malignant tumors, most commonly developed from head and neck primary tumors. But, they can also be secondary to distant primary tumors. We report the case of two patients treated in our Otorhinolaryngology and Head and Neck department for chronic supraclavicular lymphadenopathies, for whom further investigations showed lymph node metastasis originating from distant tumors.

Treatment and evaluation of recurrence for antrochoanal polyps by endoscopic large middle meatal antrostomy, clinical case series of 25 patients.

Introduction: The Endoscopic approach for complete removal of antrochoanal polyp is considered a safe and effective procedure with the best control of the attachments of antrochoanal polyps. The mains of our study are to review the clinical features and evaluate the recurrence in the patients affected by antrochoanal polyps (ACPs) and surgically treated by endoscopic middle meatal antrostomy.

Methods: The present research is a retrospective study.

[Correlation between magnetic resonance imaging and extemporaneous and definitive histological examination of parotid gland tumors: a case series].

Parotid gland tumor is complex and poses diagnostic and therapeutic problems. The purpose of this study was to assess the role of extemporaneous examination in the management of patients with parotid gland tumors. We report a pro and retrospective analytical study of a series of cases of salivary gland tumors, whose data were collected in the ENT and in the department of cervical-facial Surgery at the University Hospital in Casablanca, between January 2012 and December 2015.

Predictive factors of cervical nodal metastases in N0 squamous cell carcinomas of the mobile tongue - A cohort study.

Squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of the tongue is one of the most common cancers in the oral region, most frequently associated with lymph nodes metastases which influence the most the prognosis. The identification of predictive factors of occult cervical nodal metastases for N0 tumors will allow to adapt the treatment to the patient, avoiding over or under management. From 2014 to 2019, a cohort of 26 patients with SCC of the mobile tongue was reviewed by analysing the medical history, the epidemiological and clinical parameters, the tumor sites, aspects, diameters, depths of invasion, pathological degree, degree of differentiation, T classification and results of neck dissections.

Spontaneous intra-parotid pseudoaneurysm of the external carotid artery: A rare case report due to an unfrequent disease.

Spontaneous intra-parotid pseudoaneurysm of the external carotid artery are very rare, only one case has been reported in the literature until 2019. The authors describe the second rare case of a spontaneous pseudoaneurysm of the external carotid artery which mimicked a parotid neoplasm in a young patient with pulsatile and non-fixed mass. The clinical presentation, diagnosis, and management of this condition are discussed.

Bilateral antrochoanal polyp: report of a new case and systematic review of the literature.

Antrochonal polyp (ACP) is a benign, rare, and generally unilateral tumor which originates from the maxillary sinus mucosa. Bilateral ACP is extremely rare. Only few cases have been documented in the literature until 2018.
