Patients diagnosed with multiple endocrine neoplasia type-1 (MEN1) often initially present with primary hyperparathyroidism (pHPT), and typically undergo surgical intervention. While laboratory tests are fundamental for diagnosis, imaging is crucial for localizing pathological parathyroids to aid in precise surgical planning. In this pictorial review, we will begin by comprehensively examining key imaging techniques and their established protocols, evaluating their effectiveness in detecting abnormal parathyroid glands.

Background: Congenital scoliosis with progressive potential is a controversial subject in early-onset spinal deformities. The presence of a hemivertebra may produce severe spinal deformities. The evolution of a scoliotic curve in these cases is unpredictable and requires careful follow-up dependent on multiple variables, such as the location of the hemivertebra, the age of the patient at the time of diagnosis, and the degree of deformity already present in both sagittal and frontal planes.

Introduction: Triorchidism is a rare anomaly whose management raised considerable discussion. Several factors must be considered, including the patient's age, the testes location, their functional status, and the accessibility and compliance for follow-up. We present a case of triorchidism diagnosed incidentally during a routine hernioplasty procedure, serving educational and informative purposes.

Article Synopsis
- Supernumerary teeth are additional teeth that can appear anywhere in the mouth and may cause swelling; this case highlights a rare instance of one found in the horizontal plate of the palatine bone.
- A 10-year-old boy presented with a bony hard swelling in his palate, which was confirmed via a CT scan to be an impacted supernumerary tooth that was successfully extracted through surgery.
- The case underscores the importance of considering impacted supernumerary teeth in the diagnosis of oral swellings, particularly in the posterior hard palate.
