Displasia Cemento Ósea Florida: Reporte de un caso

La Displasia Cemento Ósea Florida corresponde a un tipo de lesión fibro ósea caracterizada por presentar un hueso trabecular con apariencia de tejido conectivo fibroso con áreas similares al cemento radicular. Afecta principalmente a mandíbula, a mujeres y a personas de etnia africana entre la cuarta a la quinta década. Posee crecimiento limitado, presentación de forma simétrica, bilateral y capacidad de afectar de uno a más cuadrantes. Tiene tres etapas de desarrollo, que se presentan con aspecto radiográfico diferente. En la primera etapa se aprecia un área radiolúcida, en la segunda etapa se visualizan radiopacidades circunscritas al área radiolúcida; y en la tercera etapa se observa una clara radiopacidad alrededor de la lesión. Para su correcto diagnóstico se necesita una cuidadosa correlación de los hallazgos clínicos, imagenológicos, de laboratorio e histopatológicos. Se presenta el caso de una paciente de género femenino de 70 años diagnosticada con Displasia Cemento Ósea Florida.

Florid Cemento-Osseous Dysplasia is a type of fibro-osseous lesion characterized by a trabecular bone with the appearance of fibrous connective tissue with areas similar to root cement. It mainly affects the jaw, women and people of African ethnicity between the fourth and fifth decades. It has limited growth, a symmetrical, bilateral presentation and the ability to affect one or more quadrants. It has three stages of development, with different radiographic appearance. The first stage shows a radiolucent area, the second stage shows radiopacities circumscribed to the radiolucent area; and in the third stage a clear radiopacity is observed around the lesion. For its correct diagnosis, a careful correlation of clinical, imaging, laboratory and histopathological findings is needed. The case of a 70-year-old female patient diagnosed with Florid Cemento-Osseous Dysplasia is presented.

Lesión Fibro-ósea de Mandíbula: Un Hallazgo Radiográfico / Fibro-osseous Lesion of the Mandible: A Radiographic Finding

Las lesiones fibro-óseas son consideradas benignas y componen un grupo de patologías de desórdenes que se caracterizan por el reemplazo de un hueso normal por un tejido compuesto de fibras colágenas, fibroblastos y tejido mineralizado. Presentamos un hallazgo radiográfico obtenido de un paciente de sexo masculino de 41 años de edad que asiste a un centro de radiología para realizarse una radiografía panorámica, el examen revela un interesante hallazgo radiográfico en la hemi mandíbula izquierda, donde se observa una lesión fibro-ósea con expansión ósea a nivel de reborde marginal y cortical basal mandibular, desplazamiento de canal mandibular, desplazamiento dentario, compromiso de cortical alveolar y rizálisis en diferentes niveles en los dientes adyacentes a la lesión. De acuerdo a los antecedentes anteriores se establece una hipótesis diagnóstica de Fibroma Osificante de larga data debido a su radiopacidad. La Organización Mundial de la Salud lo clasifica como una neoplasia ósea benigna con afección al esqueleto craneofacial, de mayor incidencia en mandíbula, se presenta generalmente entre la 3º y 4º década de vida. Concluimos que las lesiones fibro-óseas pueden ser detectadas como un hallazgo radiográfico, esto es relevante para un tratamiento precoz, sin embargo, el diagnóstico debe realizarse complementando los antecedentes clínicos e histopatológicos de la lesión, poniendo especial atención en el diagnóstico diferencial.

Fibro-osseous lesions are considered benign and make up a group of disorder pathologies that are characterized by the replacement of normal bone by tissue composed of collagen fibers, fibroblasts, and mineralized tissue. We present a radiographic finding obtained from a 41-year-old male patient who attended a radiology center for a panoramic radiograph. The examination revealed an interesting radiographic finding in the left hemi-mandible, where a fibro-osseous lesion was observed. with bone expansion at the level of the marginal ridge and basal mandibular cortex, displacement of the mandibular canal, dental displacement, compromise of the alveolar cortex and rizalysis at different levels in the teeth adjacent to the lesion. According to the previous antecedents, a long-standing diagnostic hypothesis of Ossifying Fibroma is established due to its radiopacity. The World Health Organization classifies it as a benign bone neoplasm affecting the craniofacial skeleton, with the highest incidence in the jaw, generally presenting between the 3rd and 4th decade of life. We conclude that fibro-osseous lesions can be detected as a radiographic finding, this is relevant for early treatment, however the diagnosis must be made by complementing the clinical and histopathological history of the lesion, paying special attention to the differential diagnosis.

Proptosis como presentación inicial de un fibroma osificante etmoidal en edad pediátrica

El fibroma osificante es un tumor óseo benigno poco común, cuya localización más frecuente son los huesos maxilofaciales, pero su origen en el seno etmoidal es raro. La mayor incidencia se describe entre la segunda y la cuarta décadas de la vida. Se efectuó una revisión en la literatura nacional sobre fibromas osificantes etmoidales con extensión orbitaria, y no se encontraron reportes publicados. Se presenta el caso de una paciente de 10 años de edad que fue remitida a consulta de Oculoplastia por notar protrusión ocular izquierda desde hacía tres meses. Se le realizó ultrasonido, tomografía computarizada y resonancia magnética en los que se evidenció una lesión tumoral de seno etmoidal con compromiso de órbita izquierda que ocasionaba proptosis, con características imagenológicas sugestivas de un probable fibroma osificante. La biopsia endoscópica nasal confirmó el diagnóstico.

Ossifying fibroma is an uncommon benign bone tumor, whose most frequent location is the maxillofacial bones, but its origin in the ethmoid sinus is rare. The highest incidence is described between the second and fourth decades of life. A review of the national literature on ethmoid ossifying fibromas with orbital extension was carried out, and no published reports were found. We present the case of a 10-year old female patient who was referred to Oculoplasty consultation for noticing left ocular protrusion for three months. Ultrasound, computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging showed a tumor lesion of the ethmoidal sinus with involvement of the left orbit causing proptosis, with imaging characteristics suggestive of a probable ossifying fibroma. Nasal endoscopic biopsy confirmed the diagnosis.

Florid Osseous Dysplasia in Edentulous Maxilla and Mandible: A Rare Case Report

Introduction: Florid osseous dysplasia (FOD) has been described as a reactive fibro-osseous lesion affecting the jaw bones especially the tooth bearing areas. Usually, this lesion is asymptomatic unless accidentally detected during radiographic examination for any other purpose. Although the etiology is unclear, several theories suggests that its origin was related to reactive or dysplastic changes within the periodontal ligament. Case Presentation: Presenting a case of Florid Osseous Dysplasia within the edentulous maxilla and mandible of 65-year-old female patient. Patient reported with a diffuse swelling in the edentulous maxillary and mandibular posterior regions intraorally. Radiographically, multiple radiopaque lesions were noted bilaterally in the posterior mandible and also in the right posterior side of the maxilla. On microscopic examination, the lesion was composed of spicules of bony trabeculae with osteocytes in lacunae and intervening fibro-fatty connective tissue with plump fibroblasts. Management and prognosis: After the incisional biopsy, surgical recontouring was done along with further regular follow up and observation. Conclusion: Diagnosis of the jaw lesions is based on clinical findings, radiographic features, and histological picture, whereas FOD can be diagnosed based on its clinical and radiographical features. Even though the surgical approach may lead to many complications like osteomyelitis, infection, fracture etc., a biopsy may be done to confirm the diagnosis.

Posterior axillary approach for treatment of some scapular fractures / 中华创伤骨科杂志

Objective:To investigate the efficacy of the posterior axillary approach in the treatment of some scapular fractures.Methods:Retrospectively analyzed were the data of 41 patients with scapular fracture who had been treated through the posterior axillary approach at Department of Traumatology, The Second Hospital of Jilin University from April 2018 to July 2021. There were 32 males and 9 females, aged from 24 to 83 years (average, 52.4 years). Of them, 7 were complicated with multiple injuries, 16 with other fractures, and 4 with brachial plexus injury. Recorded were length of surgical incision, intraoperative blood loss, operation time, and range of shoulder motion, Disability of Arm Shoulder and Hand (DASH) score, Constant shoulder score and postoperative complications at the last follow-up.Results:In this cohort, length of incision ranged from 7 to 12 cm (average, 9.3 cm), intraoperative blood loss from 80 to 150 mL (average, 110.5 mL), exposure time of the posterior axillary approach from 5 to 10 min (average, 7.9 min), and fracture operation time from 85 to 140 min (average, 110.8 min). The 41 patients were followed up for 6 to 36 months (mean, 14.3 months) after surgery. At the last follow-up, the average ranges of shoulder motion were 177° (from 150° to 180°) in flexion, 175° (from 140° to 180°) in abduction and 47° (from 30° to 50°) in extension, the average DASH score was 36.4 points (from 34 to 46 points), and the average Constant score 96.0 points (from 84 to 100 points). There were no complications like loss of fracture reduction, loosening or breakage of plate or screw during follow-up. Incision healing was delayed in 2 patients and mild heterotopic ossification occurred in 2 patients.Conclusion:As a new surgical approach for some scapular fractures, the posterior axillary approach allows internal fixation of the fractures of the scapular glenoid, neck and body under direct vision, leading to good-looking postoperative wound and reliable curative effects.

Magnesio e indicadores bioquímicos óseo-minerales según tasa de filtración glomerular en estudiantes sin enfermedad renal / Magnesium and osseous-mineral biochemical indicators according to glomerular filtration rate testing in students without kidney disease

Introducción: La variación del magnesio y de indicadores bioquímicos del metabolismo óseo-mineral según la tasa de filtración glomerular en jóvenes sin enfermedad renal es poco conocida por lo que es necesario considerarla para delimitar lo no atribuible a enfermedad renal crónica. El papel que desempeña el magnesio está en estudio. En la enfermedad renal crónica hay una alteración progresiva del metabolismo óseo-mineral que comienza tempranamente. Objetivos: Evaluar valores séricos de magnesio, calcio, fósforo, fosfatasa alcalina y parathormona, excreciones urinarias de 24 h y excreción fraccional de estos electrolitos según categoría G de tasa de filtración glomerular estimada por clearance de creatinina: G1 (normal a alta) y G2 (levemente disminuida) en estudiantes sin enfermedad renal crónica. Material y métodos: Estudio analítico y corte transversal con una muestra de 55 estudiantes voluntarios sin enfermedad renal en el periodo 2018 a 2019. Los analitos se determinaron en suero y algunos en orina de 24 h. Resultados: Solamente magnesio sérico y excreción fraccional de magnesio excreción fraccional de magnesio mostraron diferencias significativas según la categoría G (p < 0,05). Los valores de magnesio sérico magnesio sérico estuvieron dentro de los valores de referencia para el método. En G2, magnesio sérico, descendido respecto a G1 y excreción fraccional de magnesio aumentada, inversamente relacionados. El magnesio sérico disminuyó en promedio 0,26 mg/dL por unidad de aumento de excreción fraccional de magnesio (p = 0,0502). Conclusiones: Se observaron diferencias en magnesio sérico y excreción fraccional de magnesio al comparar los resultados en G1 y G2. Los demás indicadores bioquímicos estudiados no mostraron diferencias por categoría G. Diseños de corte longitudinal en muestras mayores pueden confirmar o no estos hallazgos. Tales estudios pueden aportar a la comprensión de cambios bioquímicos del metabolismo óseo-mineral en etapas iniciales de disminución de la tasa de filtración glomerular(AU)

Introduction: Not much is known about the variation in magnesium and biochemical indicators of the osseous-mineral metabolism according to glomerular filtration rate testing in young people without kidney disease. This variation should therefore be considered to delimit whatever is not attributable to chronic kidney disease. The role played by magnesium is currently under study. In chronic kidney disease a progressive alteration of the osseous-mineral metabolism starts early. Objectives: Evaluate serum values of magnesium, calcium, phosphorus, alkaline phosphatase and parathormone, 24-hour urinary excretion and fractional excretion of these electrolytes according to category G of the glomerular filtration rate estimated by creatinine clearance: G1 (normal to high) and G2 (slightly reduced) in students without chronic kidney disease. Methods: An analytical cross-sectional study was conducted of a sample of 55 student volunteers without kidney disease in the period 2018-2019. The analytes were determined in serum and some in 24-hour urine. Results: Only serum magnesium and magnesium fractional excretion displayed significant differences according to category G (p < 0.05). Serum magnesium values were within the reference values for the method. In G2, serum magnesium was lower than in G1, whereas magnesium fractional excretion was higher, i.e. an inverse relation is observed. Serum magnesium reduction averaged 0.26 mg/dl per unit of magnesium fractional excretion increase (p = 0.0502). Conclusions: Comparison of G1 and G2 results revealed differences in serum magnesium and magnesium fractional excretion. The remaining biochemical indicators studied did not show any differences in category G. Longitudinal studies with larger samples may or may not confirm these findings, thus contributing to a better understanding of the biochemical changes in osseous-mineral metabolism occurring in the initial stages of glomerular filtration rate reduction(AU)

Enfermedad de Chester Erdheim costal: reporte de caso y revisión de la literatura / Chester Erdheim costal disease: case report and literature review

Introducción. La enfermedad de Erdheim Chester es un trastorno infrecuente, de etiología no clara y edad de presentación variable, que se caracteriza por la proliferación anormal de histiocitos no Langerhans. Puede presentarse de forma asintomática, con manifestaciones locales o como complicaciones sistémicas. El diagnóstico se basa en las condiciones clínicas del paciente, estudios imagenológicos y el estudio anatomopatológico, mediante el cual se confirma la enfermedad. Caso clínico. Paciente masculino con una lesión lítica en el séptimo arco costal, inicialmente asintomático y posteriormente con dolor torácico persistente. Se realizó resección y reconstrucción de la pared torácica, con resolución de la sintomatología y adecuada evolución posoperatoria. El resultado de la patología confirmó el diagnóstico de enfermedad de Erdheim Chester. Discusión. Se presenta el caso de un paciente con compromiso costal y fractura patológica como localización y manifestación inusual de la enfermedad de Erdheim Chester, tratado quirúrgicamente de forma adecuada, y sin aparición de recidiva. Debido a la diversidad de síntomas que pueden presentar y a la afectación de múltiples órganos, además de los estudios imagenológicos, la clínica debe orientar los exámenes complementarios, como electro o ecocardiograma, resonancia nuclear magnética, o angioTAC. En los pacientes asintomáticos se ha recomendado un manejo expectante y en los sintomáticos el tratamiento médico con glucocorticoides, inhibidores de BRAF e interferón alfa. El papel de la cirugía no ha sido estudiado a profundidad

Introduction. Erdheim Chester disease is a rare disorder of unclear etiology and variable age of presentation, characterized by abnormal proliferation of non-Langerhans histiocytes. It can present asymptomatic, with local manifestations or as systemic complications. The diagnosis is based on the clinical conditions of the patient, imaging studies, and the pathological study, through which the disease is confirmed.Clinical case. A male patient with a lytic lesion in the seventh costal arch, initially asymptomatic and later with persistent chest pain, underwent resection and reconstruction of the chest wall, with resolution of the symptoms and adequate postoperative evolution. The pathology report confirmed the diagnosis of Erdheim Chester's disease.Discussion. The case of a patient with rib involvement and pathological fracture is presented as an unusual location and manifestation of Erdheim Chester's disease, treated surgically appropriately, and without recurrence. Due to the diversity of symptoms that they can present and the involvement of multiple organs, in addition to imaging studies, the clinic should direct complementary tests such as electrocardiogram or echocardiogram, magnetic resonance imaging, or CT angiography. Expectant management has been recommended in asymptomatic patients, and medical treatment with glucocorticoids, BRAF inhibitors, and interferon alfa in symptomatic patients. The role of surgery has not been studied in depth

Fibroma ossificante trabecular juvenil: um relato de caso / Juvenile ossifying fibroma: a case report

Objetivo: o fibroma ossificante trabecular juvenil (FOJT) é uma lesão fibro-óssea incomum, benigna, porém de comportamento agressivo. Ocorre, frequentemente, em crianças e adolescentes, com maior acometimento em maxila e mandíbula. O presente relato aborda os aspectos clínicos, imaginológicos, histopatológicos, imuno-histoquímicos e o tratamento de um caso de FOTJ. Além de discutir suas similaridades com o osteossarcoma de baixo grau e as alternativas para o seu diagnóstico. Relato de caso: paciente do sexo masculino, com 12 anos de idade, apresentando aumento de volume em mandíbula no lado esquerdo, perda de função mastigatória e de fala, com tempo de evolução de seis meses. Radiograficamente, a lesão apresentava aspecto unilocular, com limites definidos e de padrão misto. O tratamento consistiu em cirurgia de enucleação total da lesão, seguida de curetagem sob anestesia geral. A histopatologia e a ausência de marcação para MDM2 e CDK4 na imuno-histoquímica confirmaram o diagnóstico de FOTJ e excluíram o de osteossarcoma de baixo grau. No controle pós-operatório de 20 dias, o paciente relatou melhora da parestesia, da função mastigatória e da fala e ausência de dor. Não se observou recidiva no acompanhamento de 1 ano após a cirurgia. Considerações finais: a similaridade dos aspectos clínico, imaginológico e microscópico entre FOJT e osteossarcoma de baixo grau pressupõe o estudo imuno-histoquímico com os arcadores MDM2 e CDK4, minimizando equívocos no diagnóstico e orientando de forma mais eficiente o plano de tratamento adotado.(AU)

Objective: juvenile Trabecular Ossifying Fibromas (JTOF) are uncommon benign fibro-osseous lesions with a local aggressive behavior. They frequently occur in children and adolescents involving the jaw bones. This report addresses the clinical, imaging, histopathological, and immunohistochemical aspects and the treatment of a case of JTOF. In addition, it discusses similarities between JTOF and low-grade osteosarcomas and alternatives for their diagnosis. Case report: male patient, 12 years old, with a tumor in his left mandible, loss of masticatory function and speech, with a 6-month time course. Radiographically, the lesion had an unilocular aspect, with defined borders and a mixed image pattern. Treatment consisted surgical enucleation, followed by bone curettage, under general anesthesia. Histopathology presented fibrous stroma interspaced with bone trabeculae without signs of cellular malignancy. MDM2 and CDK4 markers in immunohistochemistry, confirmed the diagnosis of JTOF and excluded low-grade osteosarcoma. At the 20-day postoperative follow-up, the patient reported improvement in paresthesia, masticatory function and speech, and the absence of pain. Evaluation 1 year after surgery showed no signs of local recurrence. Final considerations: the similarity of clinical, imaging, and microscopic aspects between JTOF and low-grade osteosarcoma prompts an immunohistochemical study including MDM2 and CDK4 markers in order to improve final diagnosis and guide the treatment plan more efficiently.(AU)

Femoral Neck Non-union Treated using Compression Screw with or without Gluteus Medius Trochanteric Flap: A Case Series of Ten patients

@#Non-union is a challenging complication following a femoral neck fracture. Inability to achieve anatomical reduction and compression over the fracture leads to non-union. We reported a 10-case series of femoral neck non-union treated with sliding compression screw and anti-rotational screw with or without gluteus medius local trochanteric flap. When compression could not be achieved and a gap was present over the non-union site, a gluteus medius trochanteric flap was used to enhance the union. Surgeries were performed as a single-stage procedure through the Watson Jones approach. The initial implants were removed, followed by fracture reduction, during which the varus deformity was corrected, and the neck length was preserved as much as possible. Patients were advised for strict non-weight bearing until the presence of trabecular bone crossing the fracture on the radiographs. Union was achieved at three months in all cases. Patients undergoing surgery without trochanteric flap had normal abduction strength, and the neck length was maintained. All cases had no significant loss of function. Patients with trochanteric myo-osseous flap had neck shortening with weak abductors with MRC grade 4. Two out of 10 cases developed avascular necrosis of the femoral head before intervention. One case progressed to collapse of the femoral head requiring implant removal. This and the femoral neck shortening, caused this patient to have weak abductors and a positive Trendelenburg gait. We observed that delayed surgery leads to neck shortening and fracture gap requiring trochanteric myo-osseous flap to achieve union.

Schimke immune osseous dysplasia: a rare case report

Schimke immune-osseous dysplasia (SIOD) is primarily characterized by the combination of spondyloepiphyseal dysplasia (SED), unique clinical phenotype, immune complex nephropathy (focal segmental glomerulosclerosis) and progressive immune defects with T-cell immunodeficiency. SIOD is caused by mutations in SMARCAL1 gene. Here we report a case of a 6-year-old girl who presented to us with disproportionate short stature, short neck kyphoscoliosis, hyper pigmented macules and severe herpes zoster. On further evaluation, she had evidence of T cell deficiency and nephrotic range of proteinuria. Renal histopathology documented focal segmental glomerular sclerosis. Genetic analysis confirmed homozygous missense mutation of SMARCAL gene on exon 8 variant c1358G>c. On extensive literature survey, this is noted to be the first case of SIOD reported from India. These children need close surveillance to watch for infections and progressive renal failure and require special care during administration of certain drugs and live vaccines.

Tricho-dento-osseous syndrome: a brief review for dentistry / Síndrome trico-dento-óssea: uma breve revisão para odontologia

Introduction: Tricho-dento-osseous syndrome is a ultra-rare ectodermal dysplasia related to genetic alterations in the DLX3 gene of interest to the health sciences due to its clinical manifestations. Aim: To synthesize the scientific evidence about tricho-dento-osseous syndrome, especially for den-tistry. Methods: A bibliographic search was performed in the MEDLINE / PubMed, Web of Science and Scopus databases. A search strategy with descriptors was applied to all databases mentioned to reach scientific articles. The articles reached in all databases had their titles and abstracts read in search of adaptation to the proposed objective. There was no restriction on the year of publication, country or language. Literature review: Patients diagnosed with this syndrome have dental enamel defects and severe taurodontism, especially in the permanently lower first molars. In addition to these signs, other manifestations may be associated, such as curly hair, increased bone density and changes in craniofacial bones. The diagnosis of tricho-dento-osseous syndrome can be challenging due to the heterogeneity and wide phenotypic variation presented by patients with DLX3 mutations, since this gene is associated with several functions, especially related to cell differentiation and biomineralization. In addi-tion, it is necessary to consider that other dental anomalies may be confused with tricho-dento-osseous syndrome, especially cases of imperfect amelogenesis associated with taurodontism. Conclusion: For dentistry, oral manifestations caused by this syndrome become relevant for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes, although there are no clinical protocols for dental management of this patients.

Introdução: A síndrome trico-dento-óssea é uma displasia ectodérmica ultra-rara relacionada a alterações genéticas no gene DLX3de interesse para as ciências da saúde de-vido à suas manifestações clínicas. Objetivo: Sintetizar as evidências científicas sobre a síndrome trico-dento-óssea, especialmente para odontologia. Materiais e métodos: Uma pesquisa bibliográfica foi realizada nas bases de dados ME-DLINE/PubMed, Web of Science e Scopus. Uma estratégia de busca com descritores foi aplicada em todas as bases de dados mencionadas para alcançar os artigos científicos. Os artigos alcançados em todas as bases de dados tiveram seus títulos e resumos lidos em busca da adequação ao objetivo proposto. Não houve restrição quanto ao ano de publicação, país ou idioma. Revisão de literatura: Os pacientes diagnos-ticados com essa síndrome apresentam defeitos no esmalte dentário e taurodontismo severo, principalmente nos pri-meiros molares permanentemente inferiores. Além desses sinais, outras manifestações podem estar associadas, como cabelos crespos, aumento da densidade óssea e alterações nos ossos craniofaciais. O diagnóstico da síndrome trico-dento-óssea pode ser desafiador devido à heterogeneidade e ampla variação fenotípica apresentada pelos pacientes com mutações em DLX3, uma vez que esse gene está associado a várias funções, principalmente relacionadas à diferenciação e biomineralização celular. Além disso, é necessário considerar que outras anomalias dentárias podem ser confundidas com a síndrome trico-dento-óssea, principalmente nos casos de amelogênese imperfeita associada ao taurodontismo. Con-clusão: Para a odontologia, as manifestações orais causadas por essa síndrome tornam-se relevantes para fins diagnós-ticos e terapêuticos, embora não existam protocolos clínicos para o tratamento odontológico específico destes pacientes.

Colloid cyst: unusual location of petrous temporal bone

Colloid cysts are benign, thin walled spherical neoplasms, composed of a collagenous capsule, underlying epithelium that arises from brain’s epidermal embryonic remnants and a viscous centre. They are shown to approximate 0.5% of all intracranial tumours with no recorded evidence of the petrous temporal bone involvement. Colloid cyst of the petrous temporal bone often presents with clinical symptoms of headache, hearing loss, facial palsy and imbalance/vertigo. Which is diagnosed on radiological and histological findings. Histologically, they are lined by ciliated cuboidal to pseudo stratified columnar epithelium resting on an eosinophilic basement membrane. Imaging Techniques are helpful in early diagnosis and preventing further complications. Here we will be discussing about a 24-year-old female, a known case of petrous apex osseous haemangioma presenting with unstable gait and tingling sensation on one side of face leading to an incidental finding of a colloid cyst on petrous temporal bone through histological examination.

Sacrum metastasis in carcinoma gall bladder: an unusual presentation

Disseminated blood-borne metastases from carcinoma of the gall bladder are uncommon and usually occur late. The most common site of extra-abdominal metastasis is lung followed by brain. Skeletal metastases in carcinoma gall bladder are very rare. To date there have only been a few case reports of bone metastasis in carcinoma gall bladder at the time of presentation. Authors here present a rare case of carcinoma gall bladder that progressed to isolated sacrum metastasis.

Preservación alveolar post extracción en zona estética: decisiones clinicas predecibles en sitio severamente afectado / Alveolar ridge preservation in the esthesic zone: predictable decisions in a severly affected site

INTRODUCCIÓN: La valoración particular de sitios severamente comprometidos, involucra considerar los tiempos necesarios de cicatrización, así como evidencia actual en términos de biomateriales y técnicas quirúrgicas con el fin de lograr un tratamiento exitoso. MATERIAL Y MÉTODO: Paciente sexo femenino, 28 años, asiste por dolor e infección en diente 2.1 al Postítulo de Periodoncia UDD. Se observa defecto extenso y lesión que compromete tanto las tablas óseas vestibular como palatina. El tratamiento consistió en: exodoncia y regeneración ósea, instalación del implante 6 meses después de la exodoncia y cirugía de conexión 7 meses después más injerto de tejidos blandos. RESULTADOS: El tratamiento de defectos combinados (tejidos duros y blandos), asociados a procesos infecciosos de larga data, mediante rehabilitación implanto soportada puede ser muy predecible y exitoso en la medida que se respeten los tiempos de regeneración de diferentes estructuras.

INTRODUCTION: The specific assessment of a severely compromised sites involves: the consideration of healing time according to the different kinds of tissues involved and the knowledge of the evidence available concerning biomaterials and surgical techniques. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Female patient attends the postgraduate school of periodontics, UDD University in Santiago de Chile, because of pain and chronic infection compromising tooth 2.1. At clinical evaluation, the site has an extensive defect, with active fistula that compromises the buccal and palatal bone plates. The treatment consisted of exodontia and guided bone regeneration, implantation six months after initial exodontia and abutment connection surgery seven months after implant insertion. RESULTS: the treatment of combined defects associated with a long-standing infectious process can be very predictable and successful, only if the measures of time and tissue handling are considered and applied.

Osseous Metaplasia in Leiomyoma: Case Report with Literature Review

Introduction: Leiomyoma is being one of the commonesttumors of the female genital tract during the reproductiveyears. It is a benign neoplasm of smooth muscle.Case report: We present one such case in a 60 year oldpostmenopausal female patient presented with uterovaginalprolapse.Conclusion: The leiomyoma demonstrate a wide spectrum ofhistological variation, but osseous metaplasia is a rare clinicalentity

Osteosarcopenia: del envejecimiento de la unidad óseo-muscular a la enfermedad / Osteosarcopenia: from muscle-bone unit aging to disease

Aunque la masa muscular y la ósea tienen igual origen embriológico, desarrollo y función, por lo que constituyen la unidad hueso-músculo, las enfermedades asociadas al envejecimiento de esta unidad se consideran de manera independiente. Sin embargo, en los últimos años se evidencia el efecto aditivo nocivo que genera la sarcopenia y la osteopenia/osteoporosis en la calidad de vida y la salud del adulto mayor y aparece el concepto de osteosarcopenia. Entre los adultos mayores se reporta la disminución progresiva de la masa y la fuerza musculares, y las caídas accidentales en el hogar (probables por fragilidad) que están entre las principales causas de muerte, lo que sugiere que un grupo de estos adultos mayores pudieran tener osteosarcopenia. Por ello se requiere desarrollar capacidades para su prevención. Se realiza una revisión narrativa para actualizar aspectos del envejecimiento de la unidad óseo-muscular, la importancia de la osteosarcopenia, sus criterios diagnósticos y opciones terapéuticas. Se estudiaron artículos completos, en idioma inglés y español, obtenidos de las bases de datos Pubmed, Scielo Regional y Google Scholar. La infiltración grasa de la unidad músculo-hueso es el evento más importante del envejecimiento, pero no existe uniformidad en el diagnóstico de la sarcopenia. Hasta el presente un aporte proteico de calcio y vitamina D, unido a ejercicios de fuerza, son las principales opciones terapéuticas. No se dispone de fármacos que actúen al unísono sobre las dos entidades que conforman la osteosarcopenia(AU)

Muscle and bone mass have the same embryological origin, development and function constituting the bone-muscle unit. However, the diseases associated with aging of this unit are considered independently. In recent years, the additive effect of sarcopenia and osteopenia / osteoporosis on the quality of life and health of the elderly has been revealed, and thus the concept of Osteosarcopenia emerged. In older adults, reporting a progressive decrease in muscle mass and strength. Along with the above, accidental falls at home (by fragility?) are among its main causes of death, suggesting that a group of these aging people may have undiagnosed Osteosarcopenia. To develop capacities for its prevention the objective of this narrative revision are update aspects related to the aging of muscle. Bone unit and diagnostic criteria and therapeutic options for Osteosarcopenia. Exhaustive review of complete articles, in English and Spanish, downloaded manually and published between 2010 and 2019, obtained from the Pubmed, Scielo Regional and Google Scholar databases. the fatty infiltration of the muscle-bone unit It is the most important event of aging, there is no uniformity in the diagnosis of sarcopenia and adequate protein intake, calcium and D vitamin and strength exercises are principal therapeutic options. There are no drugs with on both entities(AU)
