[Uremic Leontiasis Ossea: A Challenge in End-Stage Chronic Kidney Disease. About a Case].
Rev Med Chil
May 2024
Departamento de Nefrología, Clínica Dávila, Santiago, Chile.
Article Synopsis
- Uremic leontiasis ossia (ULO) is a rare condition linked to renal osteodystrophy in patients with end-stage chronic kidney disease (CKD) and secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPTH), causing bone deformities that can lead to a 'leonine' facial appearance.
- The case study focuses on a 39-year-old female patient undergoing treatment, who exhibited significant symptoms and had elevated parathyroid hormone (PTH) levels, confirmed by CT scans.
- Treatment involves a multidisciplinary approach including surgery and management of SHPTH to correct anatomical issues and prevent further complications.

Airway management in pediatric patients undergoing microvascular free tissue transfer reconstruction after mandibulectomy.
Int J Pediatr Otorhinolaryngol
December 2024
Department of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery, Indiana University School of Medicine, Indianapolis, IN, USA. Electronic address:
Objectives: Microvascular free tissue transfer (MVFTT) for head and neck reconstruction is infrequently performed in pediatric patients. There is a paucity of data on perioperative airway management in pediatric MVFTT, such as the need for tracheostomy, which can pose higher morbidity to young patients due to potential long-term effects on the softer, more pliable laryngotracheal cartilage. Our objective was to report airway outcomes on pediatric patients undergoing MVFTT after segmental mandibulectomy with or without tracheostomy.

Department of Neurosurgery, Nara City Hospital, Nara, Japan.
Article Synopsis
- Central giant cell granuloma (CGCG) is a rare, benign bone lesion primarily found in the jawbones, but this case highlights its occurrence in the temporal bone of a 31-year-old female.
- The patient underwent advanced imaging which revealed a mass with significant involvement of nearby structures, leading to preoperative embolization to minimize blood supply before surgical intervention.
- Post-surgery, a histopathological analysis confirmed the diagnosis of CGCG, and the patient had an uncomplicated recovery, highlighting a successful management approach that preserved critical ear structures.
