The orofacial manifestations of 39 patients with primary IgA deficiency are reported. Aphthous-like oral ulceration was observed in 61% while candidosis and recurrent herpes labialis were each present in 25%. Only 4 (9%) patients had no orofacial lesions.

Congenital orofacial cleft, the most common birth defect in the maxillofacial region, exhibits a wide range of prognosis depending on the severity of deformity and underlying etiology. Non-syndromic congenital orofacial clefts typically present with milder deformities and more favorable treatment outcomes, whereas syndromic congenital orofacial clefts often manifest with concomitant organ abnormalities, which pose greater challenges for treatment and result in poorer prognosis. This consensus provides an elaborate classification system for varying degrees of orofacial clefts along with corresponding diagnostic and therapeutic guidelines.

Objective: Apart from rupture and displacement of muscle fibers, structural defects exist in cleft muscles but have not been adequately investigated. This study aimed to examine the histological and molecular features of the cleft muscles.
Design: Orbicularis oris (OO) and tensor fasciae latae (TFL) muscle samples were obtained from patients with cleft lip and alveolar.
Prevalence of central sensitization and somatization in adults with temporomandibular disorders-a prospective observational study.
J Oral Facial Pain Headache

Department of Experimental Dentistry, Wroclaw Medical University, 50-425 Wroclaw, Poland.
Temporomandibular disorders (TMD) comprise a group of conditions affecting the masticatory muscles, the temporomandibular joints and associated structures, often manifesting as orofacial pain and functional limitations of the mandible. Central sensitization (CS) is gaining increasing attention in research focused on pain syndromes and somatization, playing a significant role in the pain experience. This study investigates the prevalence of CS and somatization among TMD patients, analyzing their relationships with TMD diagnoses and the intensity of chronic masticatory muscle pain (MMP).

Small cell osteosarcoma (SCOS) is a rare variant of conventional osteosarcoma, characterized by tumor cells of small size and uniform morphology, which can lead to diagnostic confusion with other small cell tumors, requiring a detailed diagnostic approach. The manifestation in a child adds a degree of complexity, as the management of malignant tumours in paediatric patients requires specific considerations to minimize the long-term side effects of oncological treatment and preserve the structural and functional development of the orofacial region. This report concerns an 8-year-old female patient referred to the Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery outpatient clinic with progressive swelling in the right maxillofacial region, initially asymptomatic, but progressing to pain and difficulty chewing.
