Immunoglobulin G4 related sclerosing disease mimicking a lytic lesion of the mandible: a case report and review of literature.

Background: Immunoglobulin G4 related disease (IgG4-RD) is an immune-mediated, multifocal, fibroinflammatory disease with varied clinical manifestations. The involvement of head and neck region is infrequent. The objective was to report a case of localized IgG4-RD of mandible that clinically mimicked a lytic lesion.

Management of Isolated Medial Orbital Wall Fracture with Intraoral Periapical X-ray Film: A Case Report with Literature Review.

Fractures of the walls of the orbit can cause a number of problems which include diplopia, extraocular muscle entrapment, enophthalmos, etc. Medial wall fractures are the most common among all orbital wall fractures, and their anatomical reconstruction is relatively challenging. Various autogenous and synthetic materials have been tried over the years, and each has its own advantages and limitations.

The Lipid Enigma: A Case Report Highlighting Diagnostic Challenges in Adipocytic Tumors.

Infiltrating lipomas are a rare form of lipomas exhibiting unusual clinical behavior. We report a case of an adipocytic tumor of a 31-year-old male diagnosed with an infiltrating lipoma in the right submandibular region. It exhibits unusual clinical features such as invasion into surrounding structures, posing significant diagnostic challenges.

Analysing inflammatory responses after mandibular third molar extraction: a comparison of suture-less and multiple suture techniques.

Purpose: This study aims to compare the outcomes of suture-less and multiple suture closure methods on postoperative pain, swelling, and trismus, and associated complications.

Materials And Methods: This prospective, randomized clinical trial was conducted at the Department of Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery, Goa Dental College & Hospital. Inclusion criteria encompassed subjects aged between 17 and 55 years, classified as American Society of Anaesthesiologists (ASA) I, with asymptomatic impacted third molars falling within the moderately difficult impaction range (Pederson's difficulty index: 5-7).

Surgical Anatomy in Orbital Fractures: A Surgeons Perspective.

Fractures of the orbit are frequently noted in craniomaxillofacial trauma. The complexity of the anatomy and the proximity to various vital structures often complicates the surgical management of these fractures. The authors have thus attempted to review the literature on anatomy of the bony orbit and its soft tissue envelope in a simplified manner with due emphasis on surgical anatomy and exploration of the orbit with a surgical perspective.
