Background: Lithopaedion, or "stone baby," represents an exceptionally rare clinical phenomenon with fewer than 350 documented cases existing in the medical literature. This condition arises when an advanced extrauterine pregnancy ceases its developmental trajectory and undergoes a lithification process, potentially resulting in a calcified mass with fetal-like morphology. Typically, lithopaedions remain asymptomatic for decades, but may occasionally elicit acute symptoms necessitating medical intervention.

Purpose: To comprehensively review the literature about numerical aberrations of the orbital muscles of ocular motility (here referred to as extraocular muscles [EOMs]) and the levator palpebrae superioris (LPS).
Methods: The authors summarize the embryologic bases and the possible etiopathogenetic causes of numerical aberrations of the EOMs and the LPS and organize these lesions into several broad categories. The clinical and radiologic diagnostic challenges are discussed.

Objective: Cellular cannibalism (CC) is a prime metabolic event to determine the aggressive potential of oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). However, the etiology and mechanism behind this degradation are still ambiguous. The aim of the study was to explore the etiopathogenetic mechanism behind CC, along with its association with degree of differentiation, angiogenic, phagocytic and antiapoptotic activity in OSCC.
