Patient Case

The patient presented with acute pericoronitis bilaterally around lower third molars. Panoramic x-ray showed these large radiolucent lesions. Peri-radicular location makes these unlikely to be dentigerous cysts. Unfortunately, follow-up will be outside my institution.

Similar Cases

Case 1

Mandibular cyst known as: QUERATOQUISTE, which reabsorbs roots and bone. The theory is to create satellite cysts in your capsule. Vinally devitalization of 37, with dental mobility of the second molar, grade two. Try to perform the endodontic of this molar as best as possible before the surgery or after surgery. Periodic clinical and radiographic monitoring until complete remission of the lesion. Verification of pathology is paramount both for diagnosis and follow-up.

Case 2

What is that radiolucency around the impacted tooth? I am just a dental student and want to know the possible causes and treatment. Should he/she extract this tooth?

Case 3

A 13-year-old male patient presented with intraosseous asymptomatic growth of quadrant III. Radiographic image by OPG shows medium density opaque radio area, involving dental organ of the second molar and extending to the germ of the third molar. Advances will be published.

Case 4

Extracted molar tooth with periapical cyst.

Case 5

A 52-year-old man presented with a 20-minute history of chest pain radiating to the left shoulder and neck, associated with dyspnea and diaphoresis. He had a history of hypertension, long-term smoking, and a sedentary lifestyle. On physical examination, bibasilar crackles were noted on lung auscultation. An electrocardiogram (ECG) was performed in the primary care setting, and the patient was promptly referred to the emergency department.

Case 6

A 28-year-old woman presented with a 3-day history of intense pruritus over the lower back. She reported no recent travel or exposure to new environments. She cares for a small kennel with approximately eight dogs rescued from the streets. Physical examination revealed multiple small vesicles, some clustered and others scattered, predominantly involving the lumbar region and the left gluteal area.

Case 7

A 4-month-old male infant presented with skin lesions localized to the chin for the past 3 days. Physical examination revealed multiple small pustules with surrounding inflammatory signs on the chin, along with a few scattered papules on the chest.

Case 8

Patient in late teens presenting after a collapse, no chest pain, no previous cardiac history, no history of sudden death in the family. Are there any features in this EKG that would warrant further work-up or is this just a pediatric EKG?
