The nasolabial cyst is a rare nonodontogenic cyst originating in maxillofacial soft tissues. In the previous reports and literature, it is mentioned that nasolabial cyst clinical features of an asymptomatic swelling beneath the ala of nose and characteristic lip swelling are diagnostic. This is a case report of a 36-year-old male, who reported to our department with the chief complaint of swelling lateral to right ala of nose since 4 months. Characteristic lip swelling was missing. The reason for this unusual finding is not documented in the literature.

Background: Both nasolabial and forehead flaps are utilized for the reparation of nasal soft tissue defects that result from basal cell carcinoma. Utilizing the forehead flap needs twice operation for scar correction and flap base amputation while the nasolabial flap is a more effective one-stage technique.

Material And Methods: This prospective study was performed on patients with BCC involving nasal tip and ala regions based on the results of the initial biopsy and was admitted to the surgery department of the Loghman-Hakim Hospital to resect the lesion.

Molluscum contagiosum (MC) virus is a poxvirus that infects epidermal keratinocytes producing cutaneous nodules with characteristic intracytoplasmic inclusions. Intradermal nevus is a benign lesion that typically presents as clusters of melanocytes within the dermal layer of skin. Although both MC and melanocytic nevus are common lesions, MC arising within a melanocytic nevus is a rare event with only a few cases published in the literature.

Article Synopsis
  • Brooke-Spiegler syndrome (BSS) is an autosomal dominant condition linked to a gene mutation, leading to the formation of multiple benign skin tumors known as trichoepitheliomas.
  • A case study reveals a young female with a previously unknown mutation (c.2501dupC) causing this syndrome, which was confirmed through genetic testing involving her family.
  • Despite surgical removal of some tumors using a CO laser, new lesions continued to emerge, suggesting that current treatments are inadequate and highlighting the need for future targeted therapies not currently available.

Introduction: Facial artery perforator (FAP) flap is a versatile and reliable one-step facial reconstruction technique. However, its full potential remains underutilized due to a lack of clear guidelines and rigorous technique requirements. This study report the use of FAP flaps in our centre for the management of perioral and nasal oncologic defects, focusing on surgical technique performed and post-operative management.

Article Synopsis
  • The study introduces a new surgical method called the "trans-facial" approach for accessing and removing small retromolar trigone (RMT) lesions without needing larger procedures like free tissue transfer.
  • Eight patients with small tumors underwent this technique, showing positive outcomes with no major post-operative complications and effective cancer control.
  • The results suggest that this approach offers a practical and effective option for treating small RMT lesions with good recovery rates.
