RESUMO
Fibrous dysplasia (FD) is a rare, benign, chronic, slowly progressive bone disorder characterized by the replacement of normal bone and bone marrow by fibrous tissue, leading to deformity, pain and functional impairment. It was considered a disease of unknown etiology, uncertain pathogenesis and diverse histopathology. It was later discovered that was caused by a non-heritable activating mutation in the á-subunit gene of the stimulatory G-protein coding gene. Temporal bone involvement is the least frequently reported type, especially in children. The purpose of the current manuscript was to report a rare case of fibrous dysplasia of the left temporal bone of a 17-year-old child who came to the emergency room of our hospital with otalgia and progressive hearing loss on the left ear.
RESUMO
The strangulated inguinal hernia is one of the most common emergencies in surgery. Although the diagnosis is usually made by physical examination, the content of the hernia sac and the extent of the following operation may vary. We present an extremely rare case of a strangulated right inguinal hernia containing the sigmoid colon and review the relevant literature.
