Fibrous dysplasia is a benign process in which bone expands due to abnormal development of fibrous tissue. Involvement of single or multiple bones may occur. Common sites of involvement in the head and neck region are the maxilla and the mandible. Temporal bone involvement is rare. We report three patients with fibrous dysplasia, in whom the temporal bone (female, age 35 years) and the maxilla (male, age 17 years; female, age 20 years) were affected. The former underwent mastoidectomy, while the latter two patients underwent mass excision with lateral rhinotomy. No recurrences were detected within long-term follow-ups.

Oxford University Clinical Research Unit (OUCRU), National Hospital for Tropical Diseases, 78 Giai Phong, Dong Da District, Hanoi, Viet Nam.
Background: Beta-lactams remain the first-line treatment of infections despite the increasing global prevalence of penicillin-resistant/non-susceptible strains. We conducted a cross-sectional household survey in a rural community in northern Vietnam in 2018-2019 to provide prevalence estimates of penicillin non-susceptible (PNSP) carriage and to investigate behavioural and environmental factors associated with PNSP colonization. The data presented will inform the design of a large trial of population-based interventions targeting inappropriate antibiotic use.
