ABSTRACT

Dermoid cyst (DC) is a cystic lesion of developmental origin and uncertain etiology that rarely affects the floor of the mouth. We report a case of a large lesion found in the submental and submandibular region in a 25-year-old male patient. Computed tomography revealed extensive hypodense lesion in the submental and submandibular space without peripheral enhancement. The microscopical analysis showed a cystic cavity lined by orthokeratinized stratified squamous epithelium. The cystic capsule was composed of dense fibrous connective tissue containing cutaneous attachments, such as sebaceous and sweat glands. The diagnosis of DC was made. The differential diagnosis of expansive sublingual lesions can be clinically challenging due to the similarity with several lesions frequently observed in this region. Herein, we describe a case of extensive DC arising in the floor of the mouth, presenting clinical, imaging, and microscopical features.

ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT Introduction: Cerebral palsy involves loss or impairment of motor function attributed to non-progressive disturbances occurring in the developing fetal or infant brain. Self-inflicted oral trauma is a recurrent parafunctional habit in individuals with cerebral palsy. Objective: Describe two treatment modes for self-inflicted oral trauma in a 6-year-old male patient with cerebral palsy over a 5-year follow-up period. Case presentation: The child had been having pain due to injuries to the mouth floor and lingual frenum regions. Initially, low-level laser therapy was applied to accelerate the healing process of the wounds. Five years later, the child started to present worse oral injuries and placement of a fixed oral appliance was proposed. Intraoral examination showed that the wounds had healed completely in response to the oral appliance. Conclusions: Different therapies may be useful to control the recurrence of self-inflicted oral injuries(AU)


RESUMEN Introducción: La parálisis cerebral provoca una pérdida o deterioro de la función motora atribuida a trastornos no progresivos del desarrollo cerebral fetal o infantil. La lesión autoinfligida es un hábito parafuncional recurrente en personas con parálisis cerebral. Objetivo: Describir dos modalidades de tratamiento para las lesiones autoinfligidas en un niño de 6 años de edad con parálisis cerebral durante un periodo de seguimiento de 5 años. Presentación del caso: El niño presentaba dolor debido a lesiones en la región del suelo de la boca y el frenillo lingual. Inicialmente se aplicó terapia con láser de baja intensidad para acelerar el proceso de cicatrización de las heridas. Cinco años más tarde el niño empezó a presentar lesiones bucales más severas, por lo que se propuso la colocación de un dispositivo oral fijo. El examen intraoral mostró que las lesiones habían cicatrizado completamente en respuesta al dispositivo oral instalado. Conclusiones: Diferentes terapias pueden ser útiles para controlar la recurrencia de las lesiones orales autoinfligidas(AU)

ABSTRACT

El quiste dermoide representa menos del 0,01 por ciento de todos los quistes de la cavidad bucal. Su ubicación más frecuente es en suelo de boca. Se presenta el caso de una paciente femenina de 19 años de edad que hacía aproximadamente 7 años había notado un aumento de volumen debajo de la lengua, el cual le crecía paulatinamente y ya se apreciaba por fuera de la cara. Además, le ocasionaba molestias al hablar y al masticar. Se realizaron estudios complementarios y bajo anestesia general nasotraqueal. Se procedió a su exéresis quirúrgica mediante un abordaje intrabucal, donde se obtuvieron excelentes resultados estéticos y funcionales. El diagnóstico histopatológico se correspondió con un quiste dermoide de suelo de boca. La paciente no ha tenido recurrencia de la lesión transcurridos tres años de la operación. El quiste dermoide de suelo de boca se presenta como una tumoración benigna de la línea media. La exéresis intrabucal demuestra beneficios estéticos y funcionales(AU)


The Dermoid cyst account for the 0.01 percent of all cysts of buccal cavity. Its more frequent location is in the mouth floor. This is the case of a female patient aged 19 who approximately 7 years noted an increase of volume under tongue growing gradually and noting outside face and the discomfort at to speak and to chew. Complementary studies were conducted and under general anesthesia a surgical exeresis was carried out by intrabuccal approach achieving excellent esthetic and functional results. Histopathologic diagnosis matched with a dermoid cyst of mouth floor. Patient has not lesion recurrence after three years after operation. We conclude that the Dermoid cyst of mouth floor appear as benign tumor of middle line. The intrabuccal exeresis demonstrates esthetic and functional benefits(AU)
