This report documents the bilateral presentation of oral mucous extravasation cysts on the left mucobuccal fold and right buccal mucosa of a neonate. The lesions were noted at birth and subsequently enlarged to the point that they interfered with eating. The left lesion ruptured but persisted as an exophytic fibrotic mass. Both lesions were surgically removed at eight months and the diagnosis was confirmed by histopathologic examination. Post-operative follow-up after nine months shows no recurrence. The presentation and diagnostic considerations are discussed.

We present a rare case of asymptomatic allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis (ABPA) concurrent with active pulmonary tuberculosis. Allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis is an immunological pulmonary disorder characterized by hypersensitivity to Aspergillus fumigatus, while pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB) is a complex infection caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB). The association between pulmonary tuberculosis infections and Aspergillus infections remains a fascinating area of inquiry.

Background: In recent years, cases of leishmaniosis have been described in animals housed in captivity in zoos in Spain [Bennett's wallaby (Macropus rufogriseus rufogriseus), orangutan (Pongo pygmaeus pygameus), and European otter (Lutra lutra)]. Some of these zoological parks are in endemic areas for both human and animal leishmaniosis, thus it should be very important to include this zoonosis in the differential diagnosis.
Methods: The study was carried out in two zoological parks in Madrid, Madrid Zoo and Faunia, and analyzed seven meerkats.
