Background: Dohi's Reticulated Acropigmentation is a rare autosomal dominant genodermatosis with high penetrance, characterized by small, irregular, hypo and hyperpigmented macules on the dorsal surface of the distal extremities. Case: The authors report a case of Dohi’s Reticulated Acropigmentation in a 61 years old female patient. The patient complained of spots on hands, feet and posteriorly face involvement since she was 7 years old. Conclusion: Dohi's Reticulated Acropigmentation is a rare clinical condition, which usually appear in childhood and commonly interrupt their onset before adolescence. The diagnosis is based on clinical data, physical examination and histopathological findings. The treatment is unsatisfactory and still no therapy is proposed.

ABSTRACT: A  female  patient  of  25  years  of  age  came  to  OPD  of Arogyam Health Care on 15\5\2076 B.S. with complaints of want issue since 3 years. She had not achieved her menses since 3 months and her menstruation was irregular since menarche. Methodology:  Detailed  history  with  all  necessary  clinical,  physical  examination  and laboratory  investigations  were  carried  out.  No gross physical and chemical abnormality was found. All the laboratory investigations (including USG and hormonal analysis) were found to be normal. So the treatment was planned according to the symptoms. Diagnosis made on the basis on the basis of presenting complaints was Vandhaytwa.  Patient was treated with Arogyavardhi vati, Dashmoolarista, Kanchanar guggulu, Matra vasti and nasya with Mahanarayan taila, Bandhyaharan churna and Aswagandha churna. Patient was kept on follow. Result: Patient had got her menstruation regularly with normal duration while taking medicine.  Also  the  amount  of  flow  was  also  improved  and the patient got conceived.  Keywords: Vandhyatwa, Vasti, Nasya, Arogyavardhini vati, Dashmoolarishta

Epidermolytic ichthyosis is a rare autosomal dominant disease that manifests at birth with fragile blisters and erosions that evolve into hyperkeratotic lesions associated or not with erythroderma. When the disease is associated with a mutation in cytokeratin 1, it may be related to hyperkeratosis of palms and soles, but this is not usually found when cytokeratin 10 is mutated. The disease can present in a mosaic form, due to post zygotic mutation of the gene involved, constituting an individual formed by two populations of genetically distinct cells - one carrier of the mutation and the other without it. We report a case of mosaic epidermolytic ichthyosis diagnosed in a female patient.

Congenital Hypertrichosis Lanugionsa is a rare autosomal dominant genetic disorder, with fewer than 50 cases reported in the literature. It is characterized by excessive lanugo hair, sparing only the mucous membranes, palms and soles. It may be associated with other organic abnormalities and should form part of the dermatologist's current knowledge. We discuss some aspects of the syndrome in question arising from the case report of a 2-year-old female patient, black, with classic clinical presentation, with no other associated congenital abnormalities.

Osteopetrosis is a rare inherited genetic disease characterized by sclerosis of the skeleton caused by the absence or malfunction of osteoclasts. Three distinct forms of the disease have been recognized, autosomal dominant osteopetrosis being the most common. Autosomal dominant osteopetrosis exhibits a heterogeneous trait with milder symptoms, often at later childhood or adulthood. The aim of this case report is to present the clinical and radiographic features of a 35-year-old female patient with autosomal dominant osteopetrosis type II who exhibited features of chronic generalised periodontitis, and the radiographs revealed generalised osteosclerosis and hallmark radiographic features of ADO type II, that is, “bone-within-bone appearance” and “Erlenmeyer-flask deformity.”

Peutz–Jeghers Syndrome is an autosomal dominant inheritedhamartomatous polyp. We present a case of a 5-year-old young boywith a history of per rectal bleeding and mass protruding out of the anus. Physical examination revealed presence of mucocutaneous pigmented lesions over the tongue, and few hamartomatous polyps protruding out of the rectum suggesting Peutz–Jeghers syndrome. The presence in early infancy of small, well-demarcated and dark-brown to blue-black lentigines on the lips,buccal mucosa and perioral skin, should alert the clinician to Peutz–Jeghers Syndrome.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3126/jpn.v4i8.11597 Journal of Pathology of Nepal; Vol.4,No. 8 (2014) 677-679

Abstract Inherited epidermolysis bullosa (IEB) is a genodermatosis transmitted in either autosomal dominant or autosomal recessive manner. The disease is characterized by the development of blisters, erosions, scars, nail dystrophy and scalp abnormalities. Our case report has included four members of one family in three generations with manifested disease. Our 25-year-old female patient presented with a few eroded, crusted, nummular lesions localized on the dorsal plate of interphalangeal joints of fingers, elbow and knee skin, while anonychia was found on her digits. Our youngest patient (her 3.5-year-old son) presented with the lesions in the form of blisters filled with serous fluid, erosions, recent scars and atrophy. Some atrophic scars on the elbow and knee skin were found in our patient′s younger brother, aged 16. The 46-year-old mother of our female patient had nail dystrophy on her hands accompanied by the toenails absence. Pediatric geneticist created the pedigree chart which showed autosomal dominant inheritance pattern with complete expressivity and penetrance. Further diagnostics was not done because the family was not interested.

Objectives: The aim of this case report is to explain further about radiograph on impacted right maxillary third molar and canine using CBCT 3D. Case Report: A 18 year old female patient came with swelling on her upper right posterior gum. The condition was associated with pus contained in the gum. Physical examination revealed no exact abnormalities condition on her teeth. Panoramic radiograph examination showed radiopaque image surrounded by radiointermediate image in maxillary sinus. The result of 3D CBCT radiograph exhibited radioopaque image resembling tooth 18 surrounded by unilocular radiointermediate filling 2/3 maxillary sinus with well-defined border.  Conclusion: CBCT is a supported examination which may help in establishing diagnosis more accurately.

Zimmerman-Laband syndrome was reported by Zimmerman in the year 1928 which is a rare inherited autosomal dominant disease characterized by generalized enlargement of the attached and marginal gingiva, abnormalities of nose, ear, deformities of nails, joint hyperextensibility, hepatosplenomegaly, skeletal abnormalities and occasional mental retardation. Idiopathic gingival enlargement is usually evident after the eruption of the permanent teeth. Both sexes are equally affected. Genetic loci for autosomal dominant modes of gingival fibromatosis is localized to chromosome 2p21p22 (HGF-1) and chromosome 5q12-q22 (HGF-2). This syndrome is not a life threatening disorder. Hereditary gingival enlargement is associated with syndromes like Rutherford syndrome, Zimmerman-Laband syndrome, Murray-Puretic-Drescher syndrome, Cross syndrome and Ramon’s syndrome. The most important feature of this syndrome is gingival enlargement appearing early in childhood. Idiopathic gingival enlargement is usually evident after the eruption of the permanent teeth. Surgical correction of gingival fibromatosis is recommended, although there is no information on the permanence of the results of this treatment. We present a case of a 14 year old female patient with Zimmerman-Laband syndrome. Gingivectomy was carried out in the upper and lower anterior region there by exposing the impacted teeth.

We describe the case of a neurofibroma on the lacrimal caruncle of a female patient with neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1). NF1 is an autosomal dominant genetic disease with a wide variety of clinical manifestations, one of the most common of which is neurofibroma. The lesion was removed surgically under general anesthesia and sent to histopathological analysis, which confirmed the clinical diagnosis of a neurofibroma.

Myoepithelioms are rare benign salivary gland tumors representing 1–1.5% of all salivary gland tumors. It was once considered to be one end of the histologic spectrum of pleomorphic adenoma (PA), but myoepitheliomas today are believed to be distinct entity. Herein we report a case of myoepithelioma in a 49 years old female patient with the history of swelling in the soft and hard palate. The diagnosis was made on the basis of histopathological findings and immunohistochemical report.
