Treacher Collins Syndrome or mandibulofacial dysostosis is a rare congenital malformation involving first and second branchial arches and presents several craniofacial deformities. The occurrence of ...this syndrome is estimated to range between 1 in 40,000 to 1 in 70,000 live births. The syndrome is characterized by anomalies of the auricular pinna, hypoplasia of facial bones, antimongoloid slanting palpebral fissures, coloboma of the lower eyelids and cleft palate. Here we report a case of Treacher Collins Syndrome with a narrative review of the clinical features, radiographic findings, differential diagnosis and various treatment options.
Pyogenic granuloma is a non-neoplastic reactive growth commonly found in the oral cavity and skin. It is benign in origin and may arise due to factors like trauma, local minor irritation and an ...imbalance in the levels of hormones. Oral pyogenic granuloma occurs commonly in young females in second decade of their life possibly due to hormonal influences leading to changes in the vascular system. Oral pyogenic granuloma presents itself as a smooth or lobulated growth, mostly pedunculated but occasionally with a sessile growth. The colour of pyogenic granuloma may vary from pink, red and purple and this variation in colour is related to the age of the lesion. Clinically the most common site for oral pyogenic granuloma is gingiva, lips, tongue and buccal mucosa. This report presents a unique location for oral pyogenic granuloma at incisive papilla. Palatal pyogenic granuloma is rarely reported.

Crouzon syndrome is an autosomal dominant
disorder with complete penetrance and variable
expressivity. In the year 1912, French neurosurgeon
Octave Crouzon described this autosomal dominant
rare ...genetic disorder. Crouzon syndrome is a
disorder characterized by pre-mature closure of
cranial sutures, mid-facial hypoplasia and orbital
deformities. The reported occurrence of Crouzon
syndrome is 1:25000 live births, which makes it the
most common of over 70 conditions which has premature
fusion of the cranial sutures as one of its
features. A positive family history is stated to occur
in approximately 44-67% of the reported cases.
Structural anomalies of blood vessels without endothelial proliferation are termed ‘vascular malformations’. These malformations are present at the time of birth and continue their presence ...throughout the life of the individual. Most of these Port wine stains are unilateral in nature or typically showing segmental distribution that respects the midline. Although Port wine stains are considered to be common capillary malformation, their presentation bilaterally is a rare occurrence. Here we report a case of a rare bilateral presentation of Port wine stain involving both the face and neck, extending from the hairline on the scalp to the angle of the mouth and tragus of the ear on both the sides.
Goldenhar syndrome consists of a varied group of malformations that can involve multiple systems of the body. It is believed to be a variant of hemifacial microsomia with ocular and vertebral ...involvement. Characteristic findings, such as hypoplasia of one half of the face, epibulbar dermoids, ear tags, and spinal cord defects, warrant the name occulo-auriculo-vertebral dysplasia. The syndrome occurs due to imbalance in cells during the blastogenesis period of embryo formation. It is found to involve the derivatives of first and second branchial arches. The condition is apparent at birth, but the phenotype can vary greatly in its severity depending on the activation and expression of the defective gene. Reported here are detailed clinical and radiographic features of two sporadic cases of Goldenhar syndrome in young males. This work mainly highlights the various theories of etiopathogenesis as well as step-wise management protocol for patients diagnosed with the syndrome.
Herpes zoster (HZ) also called as shingles is an acute infectious viral disease characterized by inflammation of dorsal root ganglia or extra medullary cranial nerve ganglia. It is associated with ...vesicular eruptions of the skin or mucous membrane in areas supplied by the affected nerves. This article reports a rather uncommon and interesting case of 52-year-old man with HZ infection involving the left greater palatine branch of maxillary division of trigeminal nerve presenting with manifestations isolated to the left half of the hard palate which is a clinical rarity.

Pierre Robin anomalad is a syndrome characterized by cleft of the palate, micrognathia of the mandible, and glossoptosis. This syndrome can occur as an individual presentation, or it may be ...associated with a wide variety of syndromes and anomalies. Such patients are burdened with several problems, some obvious and some less so. The most obvious problems such as the psychological difficulties the patients will have to face due to the appearance and associated problems such as feeding and speech difficulties and serious consequences such as airway obstruction. Here, we report two cases of Pierre Robin sequence seen in the same family in two children of the same parents.
The lateral periodontal lateral cyst (LPC) is a uncommon developmental odontogenic cyst defined as a radiolucent lesion which develops along the lateral aspect of an erupted vital tooth. LPC ...represents approximately 0.8% to 2% of all odontogenic cysts .The most frequently reported location of a lateral periodontal cyst is the mandibular canine premolar area, followed by the anterior region of the maxilla. Lateral periodontal cyst is usually asymptomatic and presents as a round, oval or teardrop-like well-circumscribed interradicular radiolucent area, usually with a sclerotic margin lying between the apex and cervical margin of the teeth . The lateral periodontal cyst usually is seen in the fifth to sixth decade of life with a male preponderance. This paper reports an unusual and an atypical case of an inter radicular radiolucent cystic lesion in located between the mandibular central incisor and canine area in an 87 year old female patient mimicking clinically and radiographically as an residual cyst but histopathologically confirmed as an lateral periodontal cyst.DOI: 10.14693/jdi.v23i1.967
