Odontogenic Cutaneous Sinus Tract in a 12-Year-Old Patient: Case Report.
Pediatr Dermatol
November 2024
Department of Oral and Dental Pathology, Faculty of Odontology, Lithuanian University of Health Sciences, Kaunas, Lithuania.
An odontogenic cutaneous sinus tract is considered an uncommon skin lesion resulting from a dental infection. In most cases of periapical abscesses, the sinus tract emerges intraorally, but rarely may appear on the cutaneous surface. The nonspecific clinical symptoms and diverse appearance of such lesions can lead to misdiagnosis and mistreatment of patients.

Article Synopsis
- The calcifying odontogenic cyst (COC) is a rare type of cyst related to teeth, with two unique case studies presented that highlight its varied characteristics.* -
- One case showed an unexpected cholesterol granuloma found between the maxillary central incisors, while the other involved a compound odontome alongside the COC.* -
- The article emphasizes the need for thorough radiological and histopathological evaluations for accurate diagnosis and suggests that COCs may need to be further classified to improve understanding of their differences and behaviors.*

Misdiagnosis of an Odontogenic Infection as a Skin Lesion: The Diagnostic Dilemma.
Cureus
August 2024
Dentistry, Sharad Pawar Dental College and Hospital, Datta Meghe Institute of Higher Education and Research, Wardha, IND.
Extraoral sinus tracts of endodontic origin might be confused for a variety of dermatological conditions. Differential diagnosis of this clinical condition plays an essential role in providing appropriate clinical care because misdiagnosis is the most prevalent cause of prolonged therapy and healing failure. As a result, every cutaneous sinus structure affecting the face or neck should be investigated for dental issues.

Indian J Dermatol Venereol Leprol
November 2024
Department of Dermatology, Affiliated Hospital of Xuzhou Medical University, Xuzhou, Jiangsu, China.
Article Synopsis
- Odontogenic cutaneous fistulas (OCST) are abnormal connections between the skin of the face and the mouth caused by chronic dental infections, often going unnoticed by dermatologists.
- A study of 60 patients showed that OCST is more common in men, with most cases occurring in the lower jaw (mandible) rather than the upper jaw (maxilla), and nodules being the most common appearance.
- Effective dental treatment led to positive outcomes for all patients, highlighting the need for better teamwork between dentists and dermatologists for accurate diagnosis and management.
