The ameloblastic fibro-odontoma (AFO) is a mixed odontogenic tumor, with characteristics of ameloblastic fibroma, presenting enamel and dentin, which occurs more frequently in individuals aged 5 to 17 years. This paper reports na extensive case of ameloblastic fibro-odontoma in the mandible of a 3-year-old patient, discussed in comparison to cases selected from a brief literature review on the clinical characteristics, Evolution and therapeutic options for this lesion. In the last years, there was no consensus in the literature concerning its etiopathogenesis and classification, yet recently the AFO was classified as a developing odontoma. This case is in accordance with the 7 cases reported in the literature of AFO in the mandible of children aged 10 years or younger, especially concerning the lesion pattern and evolution and treatment adopted. The patient did not present relapse and exhibited local bone regeneration at the 3-year follow-up.

AbstractAblepharon macrostomia syndrome (AMS) is a rare congenital disorder. To our knowledge, only 20 cases have been reported to date, and all in patients from Western countries. We report a case of AMS in a Thai patient, who presented at age 3 months with severe ectropion of both upper and lower eyelids, alopecia totalis, no palpable clitoris, and hypoplasia of both labia minora and labia majora. Trio whole exome sequencing analysis was performed, which revealed a heterozygous missense c.223G>A (p.Glu75Lys) variation in TWIST2. To our knowledge, this is the first reported case of AMS in a patient from Thailand and the first reported case of AMS in Asia.

Abstract Background: Marfan syndrome (MFS) is a connective tissue disorder that can lead to aortic disease, arrhythmias and heart failure. Many centers are reluctant to offer orthotopic heart transplantation (OHT) for patients with MFS with concurrent aortic disease due to complexity of the surgery and perceived inferior results when compared to patients without MFS. Methods: We present a case of a patient with MFS with previous Bentall procedure who underwent successful OHT, accompanied by a literature review on OHT performed for patients with MFS. Results and Conclusions: Patients with MFS who underwent OHT had no difference in mortality compared to patients without MFS. Even though OHT is technically more challenging when combined with concurrent intervention for aortic disease, it should be considered as a life-saving operation for patients with MFS.

We present a case of bilateral anterior superior iliac spine avulsion fractures in an adult patient who was involved in a road traffic collision. Her injuries were managed conservatively and she has had an uncomplicated recovery with a good outcome. This is, to our knowledge, the only reported case of bilateral simultaneous anterior superior iliac spine apophyseal avulsion fractures in an adult.
