RESUMO
The Stevens-Johnson syndrome is a severe form of erythema multiforme associated with multiple organ involvement that can result in severe mortality. Various etiologic factors have been reported to include drugs, bacteria, virus, etc. We experienced a case of amoxicillin clavulanic acid induced Stevens-Johnson syndrome with the involvement of oral mucosa, skin, and conjunctiva. This patient was treated with steroid and supportive care.

A bronchogenic cyst is an uncommon benign congenital anomaly of the primitive ventral foregut. Although bronchogenic cysts in the midline of anterior neck have been reported, they are known to occur very rarely. Moreover, it has never been reported to be located submentally in adults. Clinically, it is usually asymptomatic and thus incidentally diagnosed. Radiologically, it can not be differentiated from other cystic lesions. Therefore, it is pathologically confirmed only when there are bronchial tissues such as pseudostratified ciliated columnar epithelium, smooth muscle, mucous gland or cartilage. Since this cyst has potential for complication, a complete excision is mandatory. We recently experienced a case of bronchogenic cyst presenting as a submental mass in a 26 year-old man. In this article, we reviewed the etiology, the diagnosis, and the treatment of this case with a review of the literatures.

Dermoid cysts are congenital anomalies that arise from trapped pouches of the ectoderm near the normal fold or from the surface ectoderm that has failed to separate from the neural tube. Dermoid cysts of head and neck area are relatively rare, whereas those located in the postauricular area are extremely rare. In Korea, only 3 cases of postauricular dermoid cysts have been reported. In this article, we report a case of postauricular dermoid cyst in a 21 year-old man, along with a review of articles.
