Background: Oral cancer is the sixth most common cancer, and 90% of them are oral squamous cell carcinomas (OSCC). As most OSCC are asymptomatic and are only detected at an advanced stage, the 5-year survival rate is only 50%. Thus, using novel prognosticators can minimise mortality and morbidity associated with OSCC.

Article Synopsis
- Kindler syndrome (KS) is a rare skin condition that starts in babies and causes painful blisters, unusual skin color changes, and sensitivity to sunlight as they get older.
- It happens because of a problem with a protein called kindlin-1, which helps skin cells stick together and move properly.
- People with KS can have issues with their mouths that are often missed or treated wrong, and having diabetes can make these problems worse, leading to bigger challenges with healing and skin issues.

Department of Periodontics, Sharad Pawar Dental College, Datta Meghe Institute of Higher Education and Research, Wardha, IND.
Article Synopsis
- Pyogenic granuloma (PG) is a benign growth commonly found in the oral cavity, particularly on the lips, palate, and gums, and is often mistaken for an infection despite being a type of vessel growth.
- Though PG can recur, it is not cancerous and may cause discomfort depending on its location; accurate diagnosis is critical as it can resemble other conditions like hemangioma and melanoma.
- Treatment options include excision methods like scalpel, laser, and electrocautery; for a 45-year-old female, electrocautery was used, and PG was confirmed through clinical and histopathological analysis.
Lobular capillary hemangioma post-chemotherapy for T-cell leukemia treated with an antibiotic: a case report.

Division of Dermatology, Imam Abdulrahman Alfaisal Hospital, Ministry of Health, Riyadh, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
Background: Lobular capillary hemangioma, also known as pyogenic granuloma (PG), is a relatively common benign rapidly growing friable vascular tumor of the skin and mucus membranes. Although the exact pathogenesis of PG is unknown, many theories discussed the potential of an angiogenic stimulus and an imbalance of inducers and inhibitors triggering the hyperplastic and neovascular response. The most frequently used modality for treatment of PG is surgical treatment.

- Pyogenic granuloma is a non-cancerous tissue growth that involves blood vessel formation, influenced by markers like CD34 and VEGF that assess blood vessel development.
- The study aimed to investigate the relationship between the expressions of VEGF and CD34 in pyogenic granuloma tissue from 31 female patients aged 29 to 70 years.
- Results showed that 55% of patients had positive VEGF expression, and 84% had positive CD34 expression, suggesting these biomarkers are important for understanding blood vessel-related conditions like pyogenic granuloma.

Article Synopsis
- - Mucin-producing adenocarcinomas (MAC) are rare tumors primarily stemming from salivary glands or having a significant glandular component, diagnosed mainly through histology and immunohistochemistry due to non-specific clinical features.
- - These cancers often originate as metastases from other organs like the lung, breast, kidney, or colon, and the paper highlights a case of a 51-year-old woman diagnosed with metastatic mucinous adenocarcinoma from the breast, confirmed via tissue biopsy.
- - Despite being rare, MACs account for about 1% of oral malignant neoplasms that typically affect the gums, so doctors need to thoroughly evaluate oral lesions to ensure correct diagnosis and treatment.
