Malignant neoplasms of the external auditory canal, middle and inner ear are rare. This anatomically complex region generates complicated three-dimensional specimens that can be a challenge for macroscopic and microscopic assessment [1]. The most common cause of malignancy involving the EAC and temporal bone is extension of cutaneous malignancy of pinna. Rare occurrences have been described in association with CSOM and sporadic cases arising in previously irradiated fields for the treatment of other head and neck cancers. The tissue diagnosis is relatively straightforward; however staging is a complex task that is best approached with consideration of clinical, radiological, and pathological findings [2].
Pachydermoperiostosis, also known as Primary Hypertrophic Osteoarthropathy (PHO), is a rare genetic disorder. The three main features are: enlarged fingertips (clubbing), thickened facial skin (pachydermia), and excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis). PHO is characterized by problems with skin and bone growth. Patients with PHO usually have coarse facial features with oily, thick, grooved skin on the face, joint pain, enlarged fingertips and toes, and hyperhidrosis of the hands and feet. Symptoms vary individually; however, men generally present with more severe manifestations. X-rays can help check for features that are not noticeable to the naked eye. There are two genes that are associated with PHO: the HPGD gene, located on the long arm of chromosome 4 at 4q34.1, and the SLCO2A1 gene, located on the long arm of chromosome 3 at 3q22.1 - q22.2. Mutations in the HPGD gene are inherited in an autosomal recessive manner, and the condition is sometimes abbreviated as PHOAR1 or Touraine-Solente-Gole syndrome.
Magnusiomyces capitatus is a rare cause of invasive fungal infection in immuno-compromised patients. We report the case of magnusiomyces infection of the central nervous system, the lungs and sinus with a palatal lesion, in a patient treated for acute myeloid leukemia. While Magnusiomyces infections pose diagnostic and therapeutic challenges, a comprehensive understanding of their epidemiology, clinical manifestations, and microbiological aspects is essential to guide effective management. The patient improved under antifungal treatments despite a reduced sensitivity of the different antifungals to the antifungogram. The important delays between chemotherapy cycles and its reduced intensity due to the Magnusiomyces infection has made managing the anticancer treatment more challenging.

Background: Methemoglobinemia is an uncommon hematological condition in which hemoglobin contains iron in an oxidized (Fe³+) state with limited oxygen-carrying ability. It can be congenital or acquired. Anesthetic management of methemoglobinemia poses a great challenge, as there is a risk of refractory hypoxemic crisis in the perioperative period. Case: Here, we present a case of a 24-year-old female with congenital methemoglobinemia who presented with gallstone disease for laparoscopic cholecystectomy under general anesthesia. She had a deficiency of cytochrome B5 reductase, which contributed to 26% of methemoglobin levels on co-oximetry. Despite taking considerable precautions to avoid hypoxemic episodes and metabolic acidosis, an episode of desaturation happened at the end of the procedure, which was managed with intravenous methylene blue. The patient recovered without any hypoxemic insult. Conclusion: Anesthetic management of patients with moderate (20% - 30%) methemoglobinemia can be successful with extreme precautions to avoid events that can increase the methemoglobin levels and adequate preparation and availability of intravenous methylene blue.
The action of modern emergency care for patients with AP, on the one hand, requires a wait-and-see period, which is unacceptable in cases of rapidly progressing inflammation. On the other hand, it uses methods that do not take into account the features of the disease mechanisms. All this creates conditions for an excess of complications and treatment failures. The accumulated facts on this problem indicate the need to revise the principles of treatment. Consequently, the most important initial step in this direction seems to be the correction of professional views in accordance with the classical provisions of medical science.
Self-talk is a pivotal psychological technique within sports psychology that significantly influences an athlete’s performance and mental resilience. It involves the process of athletes engaging in internal dialogue to achieve specific psychological objectives such as enhancing motivation, improving focus, and managing stress. This technique encompasses various forms of self-directed communication including positive affirmations, instructional reminders, and motivational statements. Understanding the different types of self-talk and their effects is essential for athletes, coaches, and sports psychologists who aim to develop effective mental strategies for athletic success.

The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) technology into various fields, particularly healthcare, has demonstrated considerable potential in improving efficiency and accuracy. However, the potential risks associated with unprofessional or inappropriate use of AI cannot be overlooked. The current landscape of healthcare demonstrates a growing reliance on AI tools, which is expected to expand in the future. The existing literature highlights the effectiveness of various AI applications, including chatbots, in specific medical domains. This study aims to review relevant literature in the pharmaceutical and galenic fields while evaluating a prominent AI chatbot provider. Based on the findings, this article presents critical considerations for researchers and practitioners. A thorough assessment of the benefits and risks associated with AI technologies is essential as these tools become increasingly prevalent in pharmaceutical practices.
Scoliosis is a condition of abnormal lateral curvature of the spinal column greater than 10 degrees as measured by Cobb’s angle. The two main groups of scoliosis are idiopathic scoliosis and non-idiopathic scoliosis. The diagnosis of an idiopathic scoliosis is made if a non-idiopathic one has been excluded. Idiopathic adolescent scoliosis is a more common form. Neuromuscular scoliosis, which is a type of non-idiopathic scoliosis, is characterized by diverse muscular and neurological impairments. Anesthesia and surgery for neuromuscular scoliosis have a higher risk of perioperative complications than for idiopathic cases.
Dentistry has much to offer in the detection and solution of crime or civil proceedings. Forensic dentistry requires an interdisciplinary knowledge of dental science, and it is the role of the Forensic Odontologist to establish a person's identity. Teeth, with their physiologic variations, pathosis record information that remains throughout life and beyond. Forensic Odontology has an important role in the recognition of abuse among children. Teeth may also be used as a weapon against children, and physical evidence such as DNA, bite marks, fingerprints may objectively link suspects to a crime and develop important investigative leads. Gender identification and sex determination by analyzing the pulp tissue in primary teeth can be regarded as an effective tool in providing valuable forensic information. The rights of children and their aspirations are of paramount importance, and the Pediatric dentist can contribute immensely to the field of Forensic Odontology in providing justice to these unfortunate children.
