Functional Problems

Gingival fibromatosis is a clinical condition that is characterized by gingival overgrowth. It is often caused due to medication, hereditary reasons and other local factors. When the etiology is unknown, they are referred as Idiopathic gingival enlargement (IGE). IGE is a rare and is often occurs as a manifestation of an underlying syndrome or as a separate entity. They clinically appear as gingival overgrowth with firm consistency with both deciduous and permanent dentition equally affected and worsens during adolescence. IGE is a slowly growing benign growth affecting all anatomic parts of the gingiva leading to esthetic and functional problems with difficulty in speech, mastication and deglutition. This leads to plaque accumulation which complicates the previous gingival enlargements. There are many cases reporting the idiopathic gingival enlargement in the literature, but here we report a rare case of non-syndromic association of IGE, chronic periodontitis and plasma cell gingivitis in an older patient.

First Time

Gorlin in 1962 described calcifying odontogenic cyst (COC) for the first time as a separate entity. It is an odontogenic cyst with notable presence of histopathological features which contains a cystic lining demonstrating “Ghost” cells with a propensity to calcify. COC shows diversity of variants according to its clinical, histopathological & radiological characteristics. A case of calcifying odontogenic cyst is reported with its review of literature.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3126/ajms.v6i4.11586 Asian Journal of Medical Sciences Vol.6(4) 2015 83-86

Parvovirus B19 Infection

We report a rare case of a preterm infant with a diagnosis of hydrops fetalis, associated with parvovirus B19 infection. At birth, the infant had severe ascites. She recovered and was discharged in later good condition. In follow-up at 10 years of age, she still had severe isolated hypoplasia of the abdominal muscles. Isolated hypoplasia of the abdominal muscles after parvovirus B19 infection appears to be a separate entity, which should be differentiated from other abdominal wall anomalies.

Pulmonary Changes

Electron microscopy and energy dispersive x-ray microanalysis (EDXA) are found to be very useful tools for identification of etiologic agents in pneumoconiosis or interstitial pulmonary disorders. Pulmonary interstitial fibrosis and granulomatosis are frequently associated with occupational and environmental pollution. Numerous reports of pneumoconiosis in various occupations such as coal and gold miners are presented in the literature. However, there is no known documented case of pulmonary changes in workers in the sandpaper industry. This study reports a rare case of pulmonary granulomatosis containing deposits from abrasives of sandpaper diagnosed by using EDXA.

Ultimate Purpose

Purpose The purpose of this article is to present a client-centered model of counseling that integrates information and personal adjustment counseling. Research has indicated that audiologists are more comfortable with counseling that is information based than with personal adjustment counseling. The prevailing model of diagnosis appears to be the medical model in which, first, a case history is taken, then testing and, finally, counseling. This model lends itself to audiologist as expert and the counseling as a separate entity based on information and advice. Further research has indicated parents retain little of the information provided in the initial examination because of their heightened emotions. This article presents a client-centered model of diagnosis in which information is provided within an emotionally safe context, enabling the parents to express their feelings and have the ability to control the flow of information. The ultimate purpose of a client-centered model is to empower parents by making them active participants in the diagnostic process rather than passive recipients. Conclusion The client-centered model has wide implications for the diagnostic process as well as for the training of students.
