Aim: To report the clinical case of a child with facial and periorbital emphysema caused by an orthodontic device. Case report: An 11-year-old child presented to our clinic showing moderate swelling of the left facial area. Based on his dental history, physical findings, and instrument examinations, the diagnosis of cervicofacial emphysema was established, caused by disengagement of the facebow. One week later, all swelling and crepitus had disappeared without complications. Most patients who develop subcutaneous emphysema after a dental procedure have only moderate local swelling, which normally resolves spontaneously and without complications within a week. However, the spread of large amounts of air into the deeper spaces may cause life-threatening sequelae. Conclusions: Orthodontists should be aware that the use of extraoral traction applied via a facebow can cause soft tissue injures and emphysema of the cervicofacial region. It is important to avoid misdiagnosis and to appropriately inform patient and parents about this condition.

The full digital workflow involves the combination of intraoral and CBCT scans. In the present case report, a second intraoral scan is performed after soft tissue management facilitated by the use of an 3d-printed interim implant restoration. The new STL file resulting from the second intraoral scan can be associated with the previous STL from the initial intraoral scan. The custom abutment was also digitally designed as an STL file, and no implant scan bodies were required for intraoral scanning.

Purposes: Prosthesis-related Fibrous Hyperplasia, also many times referred as epulis fissuratum, is one of the most common benign oral soft tissue lesion, that appears due to chronic trauma, usually caused by a poorly adapted prosthesis. It is more common in the anterior region of the maxilla, being an exophytic lesion, which affects mainly elderly and female patients. Our aim is to present the usefulness of Er:YAG and Nd:YAG lasers in the surgical treatment of an Prosthesis-related Fibrous Hyperplasia (PRFH). Case report: The present paper reports a clinical case of two PRFH located in the maxillary vestibulum mucosa and in the palate in a 56-year-old female, caused by a poorly adapted prosthesis. For excision of the lesions in the vestibule and palate we used Er:YAG Laser (2940nm) and ND:YAG (1064nm), respectively. In the postoperative period, the patient did not report any discommodity, and presented a good tissue healing. Histological examination revealed the presence of Fibrous Hyperplasia. Conclusions: Elimination of PRFH is the treatment of choice with the confection of a new prosthesis. The two lesions were correctly eliminated, with the use of an Er:YAG and Nd:YAG lasers, with excellent recover and without recurrence.

Soft tissue sarcomas represent <1% of all neoplasms. Leiomyosarcomas comprise only 5–7% of cases, and only 2% of these are vascular. Vascular leiomyosarcomas are extremely rare and represent only 0.001% of all neoplasms, the venous type being up to 5 times more frequent. Arterial leiomyosarcomas most frequently affect the great vessels, being fatal in most cases. In the reported cases of arterial leiomyosarcomas, the most frequently affected site is the pulmonary artery. We present the clinical case of 2 patients (a 42-year-old woman and a 36-year-old man) with a diagnosis of arterial pleomorphic leiomyosarcoma that conditioned cardiac tamponade as the initial manifestation. As it is an exceptionally rare neoplasm and with few cases reported in the literature, it is important to identify and describe this pathology which, due to the impossibility of offering surgical treatment, represents a therapeutic challenge.
