Objective: To present a case of early diagnosis mandibular Paget's disease of bone (PDB), recognised by a general dentist.
Background: PDB is responsible of rapid bone resorption and disorganised bone formation.
Materials And Methods: The patient was a 72-year-old female patient complaining of dental malposition and blatant prognathism.
Conclusion: Clinicians should consider PDB in differential diagnosis for an elderly patient undergoing unexplained alteration in face profile and occlusion.

Some skin tumors can extend beyond their clinical appearance. This presents an additional challenge, especially when the affected area is the genital region, which is more difficult for both the patient and the physician to access and monitor due to its location and anatomical characteristics. The treatment of these lesions is complex, and literature postulates Mohs surgery as the best therapeutic option.

Diseases affecting bone encompass a spectrum of disorders, from prevalent conditions such as osteoporosis and Paget's disease, collectively impacting millions, to rare genetic disorders including Fibrodysplasia Ossificans Progressiva (FOP). While several classes of drugs, such as bisphosphonates, synthetic hormones, and antibodies, are utilized in the treatment of bone diseases, their efficacy is often curtailed by issues of tolerability and high incidence of adverse effects. Developing therapeutic agents for bone diseases is hampered by the fact that numerous pathways regulating bone metabolism also perform pivotal functions in other organ systems.

To date, pagetoid spread-the proliferation of pagetoid cells in intraepidermal lesions, as observed in secondary extramammary Paget's disease-has not been reported in squamous epithelium derived from the extension of head and neck carcinomas. Herein, we report a case of pagetoid squamous cell proliferation associated with a primary intraosseous carcinoma (PIOC) arising in the periapical lesion of the maxilla, a finding not reported previously. A 60-year-old man presented with prostate adenocarcinoma and bilateral pubic bone, ilium bone, and sacral bone metastases.

Tooth root development is a complex process essential for tooth function, yet the role of root dentin development in tooth morphogenesis is not fully understood. Optineurin (OPTN), linked to bone disorders like Paget's disease of bone (PDB), may affect tooth root development. In this study, we used single-cell sequencing of embryonic day 16.

Background/aim: Perianal Paget's disease (PPD) is an intraepithelial invasion of the perianal skin that is frequently associated with anorectal carcinoma. Rectal canal carcinoma with Pagetoid spread (PS) is a relatively rare disease, and few reports on its outcomes are available. The relatively rare nature of this disease makes the development of treatment recommendations difficult.
