Nonunion post-mandibular fractures are relatively uncommon. They pose severe challenge in terms of treatment and quality of life. The cause for pseudo-union is multi-dimensional. Removal of the cause or treating the same is an absolute need to provide correct treatment. Successful correction of a case of pseudo-union of fractured mandible occurring after two previous treatment attempts is presented. The possible explanation for the pseudo-union as well as the precautions to be taken to prevent such occurrence is discussed.

The hip joint is home to a diverse range of neoplasms, as well as many pseudo lesions, including post-traumatic, infectious, and degenerative processes. Through careful evaluation of the clinical context, location, and imaging features, these entities can be distinguished, enabling accurate and efficient diagnosis. While not exhaustive, this article reviews a selection of benign, malignant, and non-neoplastic lesions affecting the hip bones, cartilage, and soft tissues, focusing on their notable imaging and pathologic features.

Unlabelled: Trauma and post-traumatic stress are involved in the aetiology and maintenance of voice-hearing. It has been proposed that trauma-focused therapy (TFT) might affect voice-hearing, but previous studies are limited and remain undecided.
Objectives: We aimed to investigate the effect of TFT on voice-hearing in people with PTSD and psychosis using experience sampling method (ESM).

This paper addresses operational stress injuries (OSIs) among military service members (SM) and public safety personnel (PSP) resulting from prolonged exposure to potentially psychologically traumatic events (PPTEs). While psychotherapeutic interventions for post-traumatic stress injuries (PTSIs) are well established, there is a significant gap in evidence-based mental health training programs addressing proactive mitigation of negative outcomes from PPTEs. Building on the Functional Disconnection/Functional Reconnection (FD/FR) model, we introduce FD/FR 2, emphasizing early identification and management of psychological risks.

Article Synopsis
- Mucoceles are benign cysts that form when the sinus openings get blocked, leading to potential complications like erosion and expansion into surrounding areas.
- The case presented highlights the development of a frontal mucocele after head trauma, stressing the need for prompt diagnosis and treatment.
- Treatment usually involves removing the mucocele and may require procedures to reconstruct the area to ensure good cosmetic results.

This preliminary study examines the link between war-related auditory (pseudo)hallucinations and symptoms of acute ICD-11 posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and Complex PTSD (CPTSD) amidst ongoing conflict, with a specific focus on CPTSD. The research, which analyzed data from 2028 Israeli residents following the traumatic events of October 7, 2023, investigated the perception of non-existent sirens and their association with acute PTSD and CPTSD symptoms. The findings reveal that (pseudo)hallucinations were more prevalent among individuals with acute CPTSD symptoms compared to those with PTSD symptoms alone.
