Patient demand for esthetic procedures and the trend for non-invasive dental treatment have led to the development of different materials and whitening techniques that are capable of re-establishing a patient's smile without affecting dental structure. Numerous potential factors may cause the discoloration of pulpless teeth. A simple and time-saving method for bleaching discolored root-filled teeth combines intracoronal and extracoronal bleaching with 35% hydrogen peroxide and a procedure known as the walking bleach technique, a conservative treatment that restores esthetics to darkened and stained non-vital teeth. This article presents a case report that used this technique and examines the effects of this treatment after one year.

Minimal residual disease (MRD), a crucial biomarker for assessing efficacy and predicting recurrence, refers to residual tumor cells remaining in the body of patients with hematological malignancies who achieved complete remission after treatment. This study aimed to conduct a retrospective analysis of the clinical diagnosis, treatment, and MRD monitoring of a pediatric patient with multiple acute B-lymphocytic leukemia relapses, alongside a review of relevant literature. In this case, Ig rearrangement based on next-generation sequencing (NGS) was more accurate in assessing the MRD level, compared with the traditional method of MRD detection, indicating the risk of earlier relapse and guided interventions in time.

Introduction: Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is the seventh most common type of cancer in the world. Metastases occur in up to 40 % of cases and bones are the second most frequent site. Metastases in extremities are uncommon with very few publications covering distal lower-limb bone metastasis.
