Introduction: Osteosarcoma is characterized by its rarity and malignant nature, leading to difficulty in diagnosis. Observation: We present the case of a young woman observed by her orthodontist for a recent asymptomatic intraoral mass. The first anatomo-pathological result of the sample was a benign lesion, but rapid recurrence of the lesion led to the samples being retested, resulting in the diagnosis of osteosarcoma. Discussion: The most common symptom associated with osteosarcoma is painless swelling, sometimes associated with dysesthesia and/or limited mouth opening. The radiological signs may be of the osteogenic- or osteolytic-type. After histological confirmation the treatment of this tumor requires surgical excision sometimes combined with chemotherapy. Conclusion: Osteosarcoma should be part of the differential diagnosis when a patient has an intraoral bone tumor.

CONTEXT: Neuroglial ectopia has been defined as a mass composed of differentiated neuroectodermal tissue isolated from the spinal canal or cranial cavity and remains rare. This lesion has to be considered in the differential diagnosis among newborn infants with classical symptoms of respiratory distress, neck mass and feeding difficulties. We present a rare case of extensive parapharyngeal and skull base neuroglial ectopia in 6-month-old girl who presented respiratory and feeding obstruction at birth. CASE REPORT: A six-month-old girl who presented upper respiratory and feeding obstruction at birth and was using tracheostomy and gastrostomy tubes was referred to our institution. Complete surgical excision of the mass consisted of a transcervical-transparotid approach with extension to the infratemporal fossa by means of a lateral transzygomatic incision, allowing preservation of all vital neurovascular structures. The anatomopathological examination showed a solid mass with nests of neural tissue, with some neurons embedded in poorly encapsulated fibrovascular stroma, without mitotic areas, and with presence of functioning choroid plexus in the immunohistochemistry assay. Neurovascular function was preserved, thus allowing postoperative decannulation and oral feeding. Despite the large size of the mass, the child has completed one year and six months of follow-up without complications or recurrence. Neuroglial ectopia needs to be considered in diagnosing airway obstruction among newborns. Surgical treatment is the best choice and should be performed on clinically stable patients. An algorithm to guide the differential diagnosis and improve the treatment was proposed.

It is difficult to make impression and fabricate conventional dentures for patients with microstomia and flat ridge. This is a case report of 53-year-old female with limited mouth opening (25 mm) who had been wearing denture for 7 years and which was recently broken. Close mouth with suction impression method was used. Proper diagnosis and appropriate set of procedures and methods were needed for this patient. The conventional complete denture fitted with closed mouth method for this condition resulted in retentive and stable denture which was inserted and removed easily.

Angioleiomyoma is a benign smooth muscle and vessel tumor; laryngeal localization is extremely rare with only 24 cases described in the literature; moreover, it should be considered in the differential diagnosis of laryngeal mass. Endoscopic complete surgical excision with dissection along capsule is now considered the gold-standard treatment for small and well-circumscribed laryngeal angioleiomyoma. We present a case of laryngeal angioleiomyoma successfully treated with carbon dioxide laser technology which resulted in a bleeding reduction and adequate hemostasis with less tissue damage and good functional outcome.

AbstractBackground:Dermoid cysts in the floor of the mouth are relatively uncommon developmental lesions. They are thought to arise in the midline and along the lines of embryonic fusion of the facial processes containing ectodermal tissue.Case report:A 17-year-old female presented with a 3-month history of a growing, progressive swelling in the mouth floor. Clinical examination revealed a rather large symmetrical, soft swelling in the mouth floor, displacing the tongue superiorly. The fast growing nature and size of the lesion raised suspicion of potential compromise to the airway. Surgical excision was therefore performed.Conclusion:Differential diagnosis of cystic lesions in the floor of the mouth is of paramount importance, as the recommended surgical techniques vary depending on the anatomical position of the lesions. The intraoral approach is preferred for those lesions that do not extend beyond the mylohyoid muscle boundaries; this leads to a satisfactory cosmetic and functional outcome.

Developmental Malformations

Foregut cystic developmental malformations (FCDM) are a type of rare cystic lesion. The occurrence of FCDM is exceedingly uncommon in the intraoral location. We report three cases of FCDM with intraoral location who presented at Chacha Nehru Bal Chikitsalaya, New Delhi, India, in 2016, 2017 and 2018 with symptoms of respiratory distress and feeding difficulties. Two patients were male and one was female with an age range of 29 days to eight years. The clinical differential diagnosis included mucocele, ranula, dermoid, lymphangioma, teratoma, thyroglossal duct cyst, etc. All patients were treated with simple surgical excision and diagnosed, based on histopathology, with FCDM. These should be considered as differential diagnosis of head and neck midline cystic mass lesions. This case report aimed to discuss differential diagnosis and appropriate terminology for these cystic masses as there is varied and ambiguous nomenclature.Keywords: Bronchogenic Cyst; Cyst; Congenital Abnormalities; Oral Cavity; Case Report; India.

Abstract Background A congenital granular cell epulis (CGCE) is a rare benign lesion of uncertain histologic origin that is found on the mucosa of the alveolar ridges of newborn babies. There have been less than 250 reported cases of CGCE. They are most commonly found in the anterior maxilla region in female infants. Case Report An 8-week-old female was referred from the Neonatal team with a 10mmX5mm lesion found at birth on the mucosa of the anterior maxilla. She was seen in the Oral and Maxillofacial Department where her parents reported that the lesion was causing discomfort when feeding and they were keen for its removal. On initial medical examination the patient was diagnosed with a Grade 1 ejection systolic murmur and was awaiting further cardiac investigations. With this in mind and the young age of the patient, it was decided an excisional biopsy of the lesion under local anaesthesia (LA) would be the safest option. The lesion was excised uneventfully when the patient was 9 weeks old. It was shown to be a congenital granular cell epulis following histopathological analysis. The patient was reviewed 8 weeks post-operatively. There were no signs of recurrence, the infant’s feeding had improved drastically, and she was thriving. Discussion CGCE is a rare and interesting lesion in neonates. Early diagnosis and treatment of CGCE is essential in facilitating infant feeding. This report highlights that a well-planned surgical excision under LA is a well-tolerated and safer option which is welcomed by parents.

Vulvar granular cell tumours are uncommon neoplasms of neural origin. The clinical presentations, surgical findings and histology of Granular Cell Tumour (GCT) of the vulva in a 50 year old lady is presented. Although rare, this benign lesion must be considered in the differential diagnosis of the labia majora masses, such as Bartholin,s duct cyst, Lipoma, Papilloma, Hydradenoma and Fibroma.

AbstractHemangioma is a benign neoplasm that may affect the vulva, and it can cause functional or emotional disability. This article reports the case of a 52-year-old female patient with a history of a genital ulcer for the past 3 years and who had undergone various treatments with creams and ointments. The patient was biopsied and diagnosed with vulvar hemangioma and was subsequently submitted to surgical excision of the lesion. We emphasize the importance of following the steps of the differential diagnosis and proceeding with a surgical approach only if necessary.
