Chondrosarcomas of the maxillofacial region are extremely rare tumors, accounting for approximately 1% of chondrosarcomas of the entire body. This case represents the 12th case of mandibular symphyseal chondrosarcoma reported in the literature. It presented as a painful swelling of the alveolus, associated with a mobile mandibular incisor. The patient remains free from recurrence six years after a marginal resection.

The Journal of cranio-maxillofacial trauma
Although the use of rigid fixation techniques has become widespread for the treatment of mandible fractures, indications still remain for the utilization of biphasic external pin fixation in patients who suffer cranio-maxillofacial trauma. The treatment of continuity defects of the mandible secondary to avulsive injuries or ablative surgery is a primary indication for the utilization of biphasic external pin fixation. The placement of biphasic external pins requires an understanding of the surgical anatomy surrounding the mandible. In this article, the authors discuss the indications for, contraindications for, and complications associated with the use of biphasic external pin fixation, describe the procedure, and present a case report of a patient with parotid salivary fistula secondary to the placement of external pin fixation.

While the dentigerous cyst is not uncommon, its development as a result of an impacted deciduous tooth is rare. According to the authors' search, this case is only the fifth of its type reported in the dental literature. The authors review the presentation and treatment of a deciduous dentigerous cyst.

The botryoid odontogenic cyst (BOC) is a rare entity which has been sporadically reported in the literature since Weathers and Waldron coined the term in 1973. Approximately twenty-five such lesions have been described in the last twenty-one years. However, the histologic origin and nomenclature of this cyst have been quite controversial. Cysts with similar characteristics may have been seen even earlier than 1973, but were classified as other types of cysts of odontogenic or mesenchymal origin. The purpose of this article is to chronicle a case and its management, and to delineate several criteria to insure the proper diagnosis of the botryoid odontogenic cyst clinically, radiographically and histologically.

Superior orbital fissure syndrome is a rare condition that presents itself as gross and persistent edema of the periorbital tissues, proptosis, subconjunctival ecchymosis, ptosis, ophthalmoplegia, dilation of the pupil, absence of direct light reflex and presence of consensual light reflex. The corneal reflex is lost, sensation is diminished over the forehead, and it is possible that the dimensions of the superior orbital fissure are reduced. Infection, however, is not often reported as the etiology. The case presented here describes an unusual occurrence of superior orbital fissure syndrome secondary to an infected dentigerous cyst of the maxillary sinus and its management.

Treatment involving the prosthetic rehabilitation of a patient with an acquired maxillary defect is reported. Definitive prosthesis support was provided by bilaterally placed hydroxyapatite-coated endosseous implants in the zygomatic buttress.
... [7][8][9] Soft-palatal and pharyngeal tissue movement negatively affects prosthesis retention and stability, which can be addressed by using precisely positioned implants to retain and stabilize the prosthesis. [10][11][12][13] Advances in digital dentistry facilitate the fabrication of complete dentures for edentulous patients with various workflows, including complete denture-associated maxillofacial prostheses. [14][15][16][17][18][19] These advances offer benefits over traditional methods, such as volumetric stability, esthetic appeal, precision fit, and improved strength. ...

... Conversely, the multilocular radiographic aspect is very frequent in cases of glandular odontogenic cysts [6] ; however, these cysts show glandular ductlike structures in the lining epithelium, not observed in this case. In the present case, the microscopic observation of multiple cystic cavities lined with non-keratinized stratified pavement epithelium consisting of a few cell layers with focal entangled thickenings, the presence of voluminous clear cells in the epithelium, and a thin connective tissue capsule with a few inflammatory cells, combined with the clinical and radiographic findings, defined the diagnosis of BOC, as also reported by Falcone et al. [8]. The fact that the clear cells present in the epithelium were not stained with PAS indicates that they did not contain glycogen or is just an example of the vagaries of histochemical staining procedures. ...

... The prevalence in the first decade of life has been reported only in a few studies [13,14]. Isolated cases of the association of dentigerous cysts with primary teeth have been reported [15]. Our work has highlighted the importance of the dentigerous cystic pathology in children, presenting the algorithm of diagnosis and rational treatment. ...

... Pathological proliferation and cystic degeneration of the follicular tissue of the superior impacted maxillary third molars can cause particular clinical conditions, especially when the lesion reaches very large dimensions [12]. Orbital signs such as epiphora, exophthalmia, and diplopia could be present due to the expansion of the lesion at this level, displacing the orbital floor and/or lamina papyracea [8], [13]. ...

... Most commonly seen in the age between 30 and 40 years, and the majority of cases occur in the 30 to 60 years age group. The prevalence is equal in both gender and mostly it affects the mandible (80-85% of cases) [4,5,6,7]. In conventional radiograph, ameloblastoma usually appears as unilocular or multilocular corticated radiolucency. ...

... Chondrosarcomas of the head and neck region are rare malignancies, accounting for 1% of chondrosarcomas affecting the whole body. 2 In the head and neck region, chondrosarcomas occur more commonly in the maxilla, nasal cavity, nasal septum, and mandible. 3 Chondrosarcomas of the jaws are more common in men, with a male-to-female ratio of 2:1. 4 The second primary malignancy is defined as a second de novo malignant neoplasm with known cancer. ...

... Parotid fistula can develop as a result of difficulties caused by the draining of a face or parotid abscess. Parotid fistula is a well-known complication of face trauma treatment, such as the use of external pin fixation, or as a result of facial fractures [3][4][5]. Several conservative and aggressive treatment techniques with varying degrees of success and morbidity have been described. In this work, we describe how a young female with a post-traumatic parotid fistula was successfully treated with hypertonic saline injections into the parotid material, a simple yet effective method of treating this abnormality. ...
