Limb salvage in Christmas disease masquerading as fungating aneurysmal bone cyst.

A boy in middle childhood presented with complaints of swelling and pain in his right forearm for 4 months. He had previously undergone left above-elbow amputation due to a suspected malignant tumour in that arm. Radiological imaging revealed a locally aggressive bone tumour of the right distal radius.

Primary intraosseous squamous cell carcinoma originating from a mandibular odontogenic cyst: A case report.

Malignant transformation arising in the background of jaw cysts is a rare and often misdiagnosed condition, particularly when developing from residual root-derived cysts. We present a case of epithelial malignancy originating from a residual root-derived cyst in the mandible of a man around 50 years old. Histological evaluation of the sections revealed that the epithelial lining of the cystic lesion contained well-differentiated squamous cell carcinoma components.

An infected intracranial dermoid cyst at the region of torcular herophili: A case report.

Background: Dermoid cysts result from embryonic fusion anomalies, with intracranial dermoid cysts being rare (0.1-0.7% of intracranial tumors).

Low-cost acrylic cranioplasty using an implant cast on a pre-printed 3D polylactic acid model in a child with a complicated osteolytic extradural hydatid cyst.

Cranioplasty to restore calvarial defects involves reconstruction with alloplastic materials or autologous tissues in order to provide the best protection to all intracranial contents. Sometimes, autologous bone may not be available; therefore, different materials have emerged such as polymethylmethacrylate plate, titanium mesh, and hydroxyapatite. However, when it is impossible to replace the autologous bone, the aesthetic result is generally unsatisfactory.

Extensive humerus and scapula hydatidosis: A unique case report and comprehensive review of management strategies.

Introduction And Importance: Bone hydatidosis is a rare manifestation of Echinococcus infection, presenting significant diagnostic and therapeutic challenges. This case report describes the successful management of an extensive hydatid disease involving the entire humerus and scapula.

Case Presentation: A 44-year-old male presented with progressive right arm pain and swelling.

The many faces of pediatric hydatid disease: a pictorial review.

Hydatid disease, caused by the larval stages of Echinococcus species, poses a significant public health challenge, especially in resource-limited cattle-producing areas of South America. The number of cases in children under the age of 15 is nearly 16% of the total cases in South America according to the latest report of the Pan American Health Organization (PAHO). The presentation of the disease depends on the anatomic location and correlates with the parasitic life stage.

Application and evaluation of carbonate apatite granules for mandibular bone defect reconstruction after jawbone cyst enucleation-a retrospective case series.

Purpose: To evaluate the effectiveness of COAp granules in the mandibular bone defects by using computed tomography (CT) images.

Methods: This study was retrospective case series of mandibular bone defect reconstruction using COAp granules. Six patients with jawbone cysts treated by simultaneous grafting COAp granules after cyst enucleation were enrolled.

Myriad of congenital excavated optic disc anomalies in achondroplasia.

Achondroplasia is a genetic condition resulting from specific disruptions in the formation of endochondral bone. Telecanthus, exotropia, angle anomalies and cone-rod dystrophy have been observed as associated ophthalmic features in patients with achondroplasia. Here, we present a case of achondroplasia associated with unique ocular features including telecanthus, esotropia and bilateral microphthalmos.

Complete resection of a giant epidermoid cyst of the occipital bone: case report and systematic review.

Epidermoid cysts are uncommon accounting for less than 1% of all intracranial tumors. Among them, giant intradiploic epidermoid cysts of the posterior fossa i.e.

Thoracic aneurysmal bone cyst secondary to osteoblastoma: unique surgical management. Illustrative case.

Background: Aneurysmal bone cysts (ABCs) are rare, benign, yet locally aggressive lesions that contain blood-filled channels that rarely occur in the thoracic spine of adults. The literature on the treatment of spinal ABCs is sparse, but the consensus is to achieve gross-total resection (GTR) due to these lesions being locally aggressive and to prevent recurrence.

Observations: This report describes a 35-year-old female admitted with back pain and right T5 dermatome radiculopathy without any inciting events.

Clinical analysis of 1,038 cases of odontogenic jawbone cysts.

Background: This study aims to analyse the clinical characteristics of different types of odontogenic jawbone cysts (OJCs) and to provide a theoretical basis for prevention and clinical treatment.

Methods: Data from 1,038 patients with OJCs were collected, and relevant information, such as sex, age, clinical symptoms and signs, imaging data, number of lesions, lesion location, pathological diagnosis, clinical treatment and prognosis, was statistically analysed.

Results: According to the World Health Organization (WHO) classification of OJCs in 2022, the highest incidence rate was observed for radicular cysts (RCs), accounting for 58.

The importance of interdisciplinary collaboration in advanced therapy of odontogenic cysts: A 31 Month follow-up case report.

In this case report, we present the treatment of a 39-year-old male patient with a bilateral maxilla cyst diagnosed as an additional finding ont he X-ray. Both conservative dentistry treatments and oral surgical procedures were carried out using state-of-the-art materials and equipment, and in close collaboration with the other dental specialists. Endodontic treatment of the remaining teeth was performed before the oral surgery treatment.

Intracranial Arachnoid Cysts in Adulthood: A Retrospective, Multicenter Magnetic Resonance Imaging-Based Study.

Aim: To retrospectively evaluate the cranial magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) features and determine the incidence of intracranial arachnoid cysts (ACs) based on sex, age, location, size, affected side, Galassi type, and their association with hydrocephalus, mega cisterna magna (MCM), bone erosion, and midline brain shift in 15,108 patients during outpatient headache evaluations.

Material And Methods: Between 2012 and 2022, cranial MRI scans of 15,108 adult patients aged 20-70 years undergoing outpatient evaluations for headaches were retrospectively reviewed to analyze the features of ACs detected incidentally. Patients who had previously undergone a craniotomy or craniectomy were excluded from the study.

Dermoid Cysts of the Auricle: A Review of the Literature.

Background And Objectives: Dermoid cysts are congenital anomalies that contain ectodermal elements such as teeth, bone, and nerves. The purpose of this study was to identify trends in the characteristics of dermoid cysts of the auricle and the demographics of the patient population they affect.

Methods: A PubMed and EMBASE search for English-language publications that included cases of dermoid cyst(s) of the auricle from database inception to October 2022 was performed.

Outcomes Following Autologous Osteochondral Transplantation for Osteochondral Lesions of the Talus at 10-Year Follow-Up: A Retrospective Review.

Objective: The purpose of this study was to evaluate outcomes following autologous osteochondral transplantation (AOT) for the treatment of osteochondral lesions of the talus (OLT) at a minimum of 10-year follow-up.

Design: Retrospective chart review identified patients who underwent AOT for the treatment of OLT. Pre-operative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans were obtained in all patients.
