RESUMO
P-aHUS has incidence of 1 in 25000 pregnancies. It’s characterized by microangiopathic haemolytic anemia, thrombocytopenia and renal failure. Mrs X, 26 year old lady, G2 P1L1 with 39 weeks POG came to emergency of a tertiary care hospital. She underwent LSCS in view of previous caesarean section not willing for trial of labour. Antenatal, intrapartum and immediate post operative period were uneventful. However, she became anuric 36 hours post operatively. Laboratory investigations suggested hemolysis. Complement system evaluation showed decreased complement levels. Diagnosis of p-aHUS was made by taking multidisciplinary approach and renal biopsy. Patient received 4 sessions of plasmapheresis and symptomatic treatment. Gradually her urine output increased and she was discharged with the baby on post operative day 19. Diagnosis of p-aHUS is tricky owing to similar clinical features with many other pregnancy associated conditions. Timely management and diagnosis are imperative to save the mother’s life.
RESUMO
These cases had been discussed having massive coronal fracture, rotation and intrusion of teeth. In case one, both the central incisors, i.e. 11 and 21 were fractured only one-third of tooth material was remaining. In case two, 21 was fractured and intruded. In case three, 12 and 21 were avulsed and 11 was rotated and intruded. These cases were successfully treated by multidisciplinary approach. Fractured crown with periapical pathology were endodontically treated and then rotated and intruded teeth were repositioned by removable or fixed orthodontic appliance. Subsequent to endodontic and orthodontic treatment prosthodontic rehabilitation was done.
RESUMO
Etiology of class-III malocclusion is generally believed to be genetic. A wide range of environmental factors have been suggested as contributing factors for the development of class-III malocclusion. Twin study is one of the most effective methods available for investigating genetically determined variables of malocclusion. Discordancy for class-III malocclusion is a frequent finding in dizygotic twins. However, class-III malocclusion discordancy in monozygotic twins is a rare finding. The purpose of this study of monozygotic twins is to assess the genetic and environmental components of variation within the cranio-dento-facial complex.
RESUMO
Proteus syndrome, which is a reference to the ancient Greek god Proteus, the Polymorphous, was called to the attention of pediatricians. Recognition of this syndrome has been difficult because of the variability of the syndrome's manifestations and because of its rarity. We describe a rare case of Proteus syndrome and we discuss its differential diagnosis. Our case presents with hemi facial hypertrophy, scrotal tongue, enamel hyperplasia as well as differential in the size of the dentition on both sides of the arch.

Secondary bone grafting in cleft lip and palate patients is performed preferably before the eruption of permanent canine in order to provide adequate periodontal support for eruption and preservation of the teeth adjacent to the cleft. Presented here with is a case of unilateral cleft lip and palate, which was followed up from birth to 15 years of age. The role of an orthodontist in the team approach for management of such anomalies is described. Also discussed in detail is the entire range of treatment procedures the child underwent, especially the role of secondary bone grafting.

Transmigration of mandibular canine is a rare elusive phenomenon described in dental literature. The eruption of such transmigrated canines is even rarer. Two rare cases one of midline mandibular canine and the other of transmigrated mandibular canine across the midline and erupted distal to the opposite lateral incisor are presented. The transmigrated canine maintained its nerve supply from the original site. It is suggested that on routine evaluation of orthopantomograms when the dentist finds an excessive mesial inclination of the unerupted mandibular canine at 8-9 years associated with proclination of lower anteriors. increased axial inclination of the unerupted canine and an enlarged symphyseal cross section area of the chin, it is best to keep such a patient under routine evaluation.

EEC syndrome is a multiple congenital anomaly syndrome characterized by ectodermal dysplasia, distal limb anomaly, cleft lip and palate and ocular adnexia anomalies. A case report of a 10 year old female patient with EEC is presented and it is emphasised that management of these cases requires a multidisciplinary approach. Early diagnosis will allow parents to get accurate counseling and in particular obtain reassurance regarding the low risk of mental handicap.

Apert's syndrome is a developmental malformation characterized by craniosynostosis, a cone shaped calvarium, midface hypoplasia, pharyngeal attenuation, ocular manifestations and syndactyly of the hands and feet. The prodromal characteristic for the typical craniofacial appearance is early craniosynostosis of the coronal suture, cranial base and an agenesis of the sagittal suture. These craniofacial characteristics predispose the patient to maxillary transverse and sagittal hypoplasia with concomitant dental crowding, a pseudo cleft palate and a skeletal and dental anterior open bite. A case of Apert syndrome is presented with special emphasis on craniofacial characteristics and multidisciplinary approach to treatment. The differences between Apert and Crouzon's syndrome are highlighted.

Though there is close anatomical proximity between pancreas and the spleen, the involvement of latter is extremely uncommon in acute inflammation of the pancreas. In this report, we present a case of splenic abscess as a complication of acute pancreatitis. The aspirate from the abscess yielded the organism, Klebsiella. We were able to successfully treat this case with percutaneous drainage along with parenteral antibiotics, and we did not have a resort to splenectomy.

Twenty-five patients of obstructive jaundice due to choledocholithiasis, were prospectively evaluated by ultrasonography and cholangiography. Ultrasound could demonstrate choledocholithiasis in 10 patients (40%). Choledocholithiasis in non-dilated ducts could be demonstrated only in one patient. All cases were diagnosed by cholangiography. Ultrasound, though an accepted modality of choice for diagnosing cholelithiasis, has a limited role in the diagnosis of choledocholithiasis. Ultrasonography (USG) is the screening modality of choice to distinguish obstructive from non-obstructive jaundice. It is highly accurate in the diagnosis of cholelithiasis but its role in detection of choledocholithiasis is less clear. Choledocholithiasis complicates 10% of all cases of cholecystitis and occurs in 2-4% of postcholecystectomy patients. The present study deals with the diagnostic value of USG in cases of choledocholithiasis subjected to USG prior to cholangiography and surgery.
