REMOVAL OF STUCK FEMUR INTERLOCKING NAIL BY LONGITUDINAL OSTEOTOMY OF FEMUR - A CASE REPORT

Introduction:Gerhard Kuntscher first introduced the technique of intramedullary nailing in 1940s . It is a clover leaf shaped hollow tubular nail for intramedullary fixation of long bones. This nailing system has been a technological breakthrough for femur fixation which can be both anterograde or retrograde. Case Report:A 34 year old Male patient resident of Shahapur brought by relatives to JJ hospital, with chief complaint of pain at left knee since 8 days. Patient had A/H/O RTA after fall from bike in 31/12/2012 with head injury with left shaft femur fracture. Patient was operated at JJH with left femur ILN. History of head injury operated in JJ hospital with no details known to patient. There was also history decreased vision in left eye since trauma. Discussion:Interlocking intramedullary nails are used as gold standard treatment in majority of tibial and femoral diaphyseal fractures. It can be removed in certain circumstances when it causes soft tissue irritation, prominent locking screws, implant failure, infection, nonunion, malunion etc. Conclusion:This study shows that in removal of stuck or bent femur interlocking nails in which all other closed techniques have failed, open longitudinal femoral osteotomy with retrograde hitting of the nail can effectively aid in successful removal of nail.

The Radicular Cyst in a Child: Case Report

The most commonly occurring odontogenic cysts of the jaws are radicular cysts.
 Causes of jaw cysts are different, numerous and depend on the type of cyst. The basic precondition for the occurrence of a cystic lesion is the previous presence of epithelial tissue at the site of future development of the cystic formation.
 Radicular cysts are one of the most common odontogenic cysts and arise from epithelial so-called Malassez - these residues in the periodontal tissue, as a consequence of inflammation of the pulp. They can occur at any age, and are equally prevalent in both sexes. The aim of this paper is to present the clinical symptoms and treatment of a radicular cyst in a 12-year-old child.
 The treatment of radicular cysts in most cases is surgical. The possibilities for such treatment and the choice of surgical method depend on the size of the cyst, its location, and the pathological formation.
 
 The present article reported a case of a 12-year-old male with the chief complaint of pain on the right lower back tooth region. The radiographic examination revealed the presence of a well-defined radiolucency surrounded by a corticated border between mandibular central incisive. The case was managed by complete enucleation under local anesthesia without extraction of any teeth.
 We chose enucleation (cystectomy) as a surgical procedure as the method of choice, because postoperative complications are the rarest, and the best healing is also provided. Аfter one month of surgery treatment, complete wound healing was recorded at the clinical control at the Department for oral surgery.

Possibilities of medical relaxation of the internal anal sphincter for anal fissures

An anal fissure is a longitudinal tear defect in the skin of the anal canal distal to the dentate line. Anal fissure is a socially significant disease that worsens the quality of life of patients. The spasm of the internal sphincter is a guiding pathogenetic mechanism in the development of chronic anal fissures. It leads to circulatory disorder in the anoderm and non-healing wounds. Treatment of chronic anal fissure, as a rule, is based on a decrease in the tone of the internal anal sphincter and in the modern arsenal of coloproctologists there are both surgical and pharmacological ways to eliminate spasm. Lateral internal sphincterotomy is still the gold standard for the definitive treatment of anal fissure, but anal incontinence is a serious complication of the procedure. This article presents an overview of the available modern means for drug relaxation of the internal anal sphincter and the authors' experience in using the first fixed-dose combination of 0.3% nifedipine and 2.0% lidocaine topical gel authorized for use in Russia in patients with the chief complaint of pain during and after a bowel movement that requires the use of analgesics. A spontaneous wave activity in the resting phase, which indicated the presence of anal sphincter spasm, was recorded in all patients. According to our observation, the complete healing of the anal fissure and the anal sphincter relaxation was instrumentally confirmed in 70% of patients.

Unprecedented emergencies during radiofrequency ablation procedure: a case series

Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) of nerves is an upcoming intervention for relieving chronic musculoskeletal pain. However, being relatively new not much publications are available on emergencies during the procedure. 66 years old male, a case of Osteoarthritis knee, underwent RFA genicular nerve of right knee. Conventional RFA of Superolateral, Inferomedial, Superomedial genicular nerves were done under C- arm guidance. Thirty minutes after the procedure, we found a boggy swelling developing over his right knee. It was a hematoma developing on the superomedial aspect of the right kneecap most likely due to injury to Superomedial genicular vessels accompanying the nerve. 67 years old female planned for RFA genicular nerves of both knees under C arm guidance. During the intervention, she complained of numbness around face, and suddenly went into disoriented state with muscle twitching and bluish discoloration of lips. Medicine consultation diagnosed the incident as LA associated systemic toxicity. 57 years old female with chief complaints of pain in left hemiplegic shoulder pain for 6 months duration admitted for suprascapular nerve block. During the procedure patient goes into hypotensive bradycardic episode. 65 years old female admitted for Medial calcaneal block for right heel pain. 24 hours after the procedure she has aggravated pain of foot. RFA is considered as a non-invasive, OPD based procedure for effective pain relief but it is also important to understand such unprecedented emergencies that can happen.

Carcinoma of Tail of Pancreas: A Case Report

Background: A typical manifestation of pancreatic tail cancer is large intestinal obstruction with perforation. Clinically the cancer of pancreas is usually complicated to diagnose. Most cancer patients are not having symptoms throughout during the initial stages of the cancer, which often leads to a delay in diagnosis. Treatment choices include surgery, chemotherapy, and palliative care. It is more common in African-Americans, slightly more common in men.
 Case Presentation: A female patient of 40 years from Wardha was admitted to Female surgery Ward, Unit-3, AVBRH on 18th December with a chief complaint of pain in epigastric region since 2weeks. Patient was apparently all right 2 months back then she was complaining of pain in the epigastric region which was insidious in onset, gradually progressive in nature, burning type of pain with radiating to left upper back. No history of fever, nausea vomiting, clay-coloured stools. After that patient was undergone on routine investigation in that total WBC count was increased i.e., 13000/cu mm and haemoglobin level were decreased i.e., 9.7gm%, liver biopsy revealed that metastasis of Adenocarcinoma probably of pancreatic origin, Computed tomography and ultrasound and it revealed that heterogenous iso-echoic mass in the tail of pancreas based on investigation she was diagnosed as a case of Carcinoma tail of pancreas and she was undergone on treatment of antibiotic before chemotherapy .after that chemotherapy treatment was done for management of pain.
 Conclusion: Pancreatic adenocarcinoma presents differently from large intestinal cancer and should be explored in the differential diagnosis of large intestinal obstruction.

A CASE REPORT ON A RARE COMPLICATION OF HMG-COA REDUCTASE INHIBITORS.

Rhabdomyolysis is the rare adverse effect of statin therapy. It is a condition characterized by the damage and breakdown of skeletal muscle. A 66 years old male patient was admitted to the hospital with the chief complaint of pain and weakness in both lower and upper limbs for ve days and was diagnosed with statin-induced rhabdomyolysis. The signicance of statin-induced rhabdomyolysis in a patient with recent Hepatitis B related Decompensated Chronic Liver Disease with portal Hypertension, and Severe Mitral Regurgitation is highlighted here. Based on this case report, we recommend that clinicians should inform regular follow-up to the patients when prescribing statins.

Aesthetic Rehabilitation of Anterior Incisor: Post and core treatment –A Case Report

This case report describes the post and core treatment of a maxillary central incisor. An 18-year-old female patient reported to the Department of Conservative Dentistry and Endodontics with the chief complaint of pain in upper front tooth region. On clinical examination, there was Ellis class III fracture resulting in loss of significant tooth structure necessitating post and core treatment. Treatment was initiated with removal of carious region, canal was located, working length was established followed by chemo mechanical preparation and obturation. Post space preparation was done in the canal followed by post cementation and core build up.
 Keywords: Post, core, ceramic, crown lengthening.

Comprehensive rehabilitation of Supraspinatus tear: A case study of post-op fracture stiffness

The disorders of the upper extremity and the shoulder is extremely common accounting for 30 % of people who experience shoulder pain and stiffness at some stage of their ageing. A high incidence of shoulder dysfunction is seen in people in recent trends. Shoulder stiffness is the main complication after fracture shoulder immobilization, and Diabetes Mellitus contribute to the frozen shoulder, which is the most typical complication in Diabetes mellitus patients. A case of lateral clavicle fracture with chief complaints of pain on the right shoulder, stiffness around the joint and reduced range of motion was reported to the outpatient physiotherapy department for rehabilitation. A proper assessment was done, and the differential diagnosis was frozen shoulder with supraspinatus tendon tear was reported. The patient also had a reduced range of motion of shoulder abduction and lateral rotation due to frozen shoulder. The investigation of MRI report stated that there is a partial supraspinatus tendon tear. Medical examination of the frozen shoulder confirms the diagnosis. A combination of non-pharmacological treatment with exercises, NSAID and exercise therapy, was planned. He was successfully treated with the combination of physical therapy treatment with the electrotherapy modalities and shoulder girdle mobilization. Comprehensive therapeutic exercises include mobilization of soft tissue using Cyriax technique, peripheral joint mobilization to improve controlled ROM. Mobilization of soft tissue along with home exercise supports patients suffering from frozen shoulder. The treatment primarily aimed at relieving pain and increasing range of motion and thus improving the quality of life in the patient. Only manual therapy alone does not give satisfactory results along with electrotherapeutic modality with proper dose work on the patient.

Blind Painful Eye Revealing Spontaneously Regressed Retinoblastoma in Young Patient

Purpose: Spontaneous regression is a rare but well-known feature of retinoblastoma, which is predicted in approximately 2 of every 100 cases. Unilateral, unifocal spontaneous regression of retinoblastoma is infrequent; bilateral multifocal spontaneous regression of retinoblastoma is even more extraordinary. In many of the previously reported cases, the eye (or eyes) containing the spontaneously regressed tumor has been phthisical and blind. Herein, we describe the case of a young woman with unilateral, spontaneously regressed retinoblastoma (RB), with inflamed, blind, and phthisis in the left eye as an uncommon presentation of spontaneously regressed retinoblastoma Methods: This is a case report: An 18-year-old woman came to the outpatient clinic with a chief complaint of pain in the left eye since 1 month prior and a history of dysfunctional “cat’s” eye since childhood. Results: Exotropia and atrophy bulbi was noticed in the left eye. Anterior segment examination revealed signs of inflammation including conjunctival hyperemia, shallow anterior chamber, rubeosis iridis, and posterior synechia with white “chalky” mass suggestive calcification. B-scan ultrasonography showed a point like lesion and solitary solid intraocular mass with calcification in vitreus. Orbital computed tomography scan (CT-Scan) showed atrophy of the left eye with intraocular calcification without optic nerve and extraocular muscle involvement. Enucleation and histopathology examination were done and revealed undifferentiated retinoblastoma beyond the sign of metastasis in other parts of the eye. Conclusion: Blind painful eye may present as the main feature of spontaneously regressed retinoblastoma that possibly caused by an inflammatory reaction.

Pulmonary Hypertension in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus with Raynaud’s Phenomenon: Case Report

Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a chronic autoimmune disease that affects multiple organs such as skin, joints, kidneys, heart, lungs, nervous system and blood. Pulmonary hypertension is a rare complication of SLE.1 Systemic lupus erythematosus associated with pulmonary hypertension was defined as an increase in the average pressure in the pulmonary artery at rest ? 25 mmHg with pulmonary capillary wedge pressure ?15 mm Hg and an increase in pulmonary vascular resistance.2 The prevalence of pulmonary hypertension in SLE approximately 0.5 to 17.5%. Predictors factors of the occurrence of pulmonary hypertension in LES is Raynaud's phenomenon, anti-U1RNP antibody, and antibody positive anticardiolipin.3
 A woman aged 37 years came with a chief complaint of pain in the fingers and toes with black-colored wounds felt since 6 months before admission. From the anamnesis, physical examination, support to meet 5 of the classification criteria for systemic lupus erythematosus based on the 1997 ACR criteria which includes manifestations of arthritis, mucocutaneous, serositis, lupus antiokoagulan, and ANA IF positive. In these patients also found the typical signs and symptoms of Raynaud's phenomenon which leads to the symptoms of pain in the fingers of both hands when exposed to cold and pale to red when heated and has been confirmed from the results of arteriography. From the results of echocardiography reveal any pulmonary hypertension. This patient was treated with steroids, immunosuppressants and antiplatelet. The case was removed because of pulmonary hypertension is a complication LES rare and necessary sharpness in diagnosis. Patients with pulmonary hypertension of unknown or untreated can become a progressive right heart failure and lead to death.3

Case Report on Rheumatoid Arthritis

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune disorder that inhibits the body's immune system that induces inflammation in the injured areas of the body. It is commonly caused the joints of the palms, wrists, and knees. An inflaming rheumatoid arthritis joint contributes to joint tissue damage. This condition may cause chronic or long term discomfort, instability, and deformation. Symptoms include exhaustion, pain, and depression. If the patient does not undergo early diagnosis and care for symptoms, a series of symptoms can arise including Osteoporosis, rheumatoid nodules, dry eye and mouth, carpal tunnel syndrome Case Report: The female patient name is Yogita Shinde 65-year-old religion Hindu lived in the kandhali. She was admitted to AVBR Hospital with the chief complaint of pain in her shoulder and hands, joints pain, swelling on both the hands. She started taking ibuprofen 800 mg 3 times per day to relieve discomfort and rigidity. Three months earlier, as she was doing her job, she had pain on her right and left shoulders. She still started to feel very sleepy and short-tempered. Tab ibuprofen was not an effective very long time for pain. One morning, Yogita couldn't lift her arms without the intense pain of her back. She was conscious that it was time for help. She had spoken to her parents, and they advised her to see a physician. The primary healthcare practitioner (PHP), who tested and carried out a variety of blood test. Positive-rheumatoid factors, CCP antibiotics, higher ESR, and C-reactive protein were seen via the blood samples. These findings were communicated to Yogita and the Rheumatologist was directed at her PCP to see her as soon as possible. The primary health care practitioner inquired about the medical records of Yogita parents and grandparents, family conditions, medical and operative records of yogita, and details on their family and working lives. And after that, the physician started the treatment, after which Yogita feels better for some days. After a few weeks she having recurrent pain in her hand and foot, this is intolerable to her. And then she is admitted to AVBR Hospital on date 20th Sept 2020

Endoscopic management of biliary ascariasis: A case report

BACKGROUNDBiliary ascariasis is rare but remains the most common parasitic infection in remote areas and in people with poor medical conditions. Here, we reported a case of biliary ascariasis in order to raise awareness of possible parasitic infections. CASE SUMMARYA 68-year-old female was admitted to the emergency room of the Affiliated Hospital of Guizhou Medical University on 28 September 2017, with chief complaint of pain in the right upper abdomen. Ultrasonography of the abdomen showed that the upper segment of the common bile duct was slightly dilated with parallel tubular structures, indicative of biliary ascariasis. Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography was performed under general anesthesia on 29 September 2017, and an adult Ascaris lumbricoides worm was observed. After the worm was removed from the bile duct, the patient’s pain immediately subsided. The patient was successfully cured, without any complications. CONCLUSIONThis report emphasizes the need for physicians to consider biliary ascariasis as a possible cause when treating cases of biliary colic.

Chondrosarcoma arising in monostotic fibrous dysplasia treated with total femur resection and megaprothesis: A case report.

IntroductionFibrous dysplasia is tumor like lesions of bone which develop as substitution of bone by an expansion of fibrous connective tissue mixed with hard trabeculae. Chondrosarcomas is one of common malignant primary bone tumor derived from heterogenous group of neoplasm producing chondroid matrix. Chondrosarcoma arising in fibrous dysplasia, especially in monostotic fibrous dysplasia is a very rare case.Case reportA 54-year-old male presented with chief complaint of pain on left thigh. Patient with history of pathological fracture on left femoral diaphysis 3 years ago due to fibrous dysplasia and had underwent curettage, open reduction, and internal fixation at other hospital. Plain radiography revealed expansive lytic lesion, interrupted periosteal reaction with plate and screw attached to the lesion, and soft tissue mass. MRI T2FS sequence showed hyperintense mass extending from subtrochanteric to distal of left femoral diaphysis. Histopathological result from biopsy suggested chondrosarcoma.ConclusionsMalignant transformation of monostotic type was less frequently compared to polyostotic type. Among all malignant transformation cases, alteration to chondrosarcoma was more scarce than other malignancy such as osteosarcoma and fibrosarcoma. Wide surgical margin and reconstruction in chondrosarcoma provide good local control and functional outcome.

Primary osteoarthritis of the knee joint and osteoporosis in postmenopausal females in a tertiary care hospital

Context: The relationship between osteoarthritis and osteoporosis in post-menopausal females is controversial. Western literature shows inverse relationship but Indian population is different. Aims: To investigate the association of primary osteoporosis with osteoarthritis of knee joint amongst post-menopausal females. Settings and Design: At tertiary care hospital A Cross sectional study for 75 post menopausal patients with osteoarthritis of knee joint visiting the orthopaedic OPD with chief complaints of pain and stiffness of knee joint were screened for grade of osteoarthritis on x-ray and BMD. Methods and Material: A cross-sectional observational study was carried out on 75 postmenopausal females with primary osteoarthritis of the knee joint. Grading was done according to the Kellgren and Lawrence system based on x-ray. The comparison of mean values of BMD among early-stage group(K/L group 1,2) and advanced group(K/L group 3,4) was performed. Statistical analysis used: The comparison of mean values of BMD among both groups were performed using one-way of analysis of variance(one way ANOVA). SPSS to 20.0 statistical software package was used. Results: The difference in BMD T score value in both groups was not significant. There were 16/38 patients with osteoporosis in early arthritis group (42.1%) whereas 15/37 patients in late arthritis group (40.54%). Conclusions: Osteoarthritis of knee joint is not protective against osteoporosis. There is no significant difference in bone mineral densitometry measurement between early and late osteoarthritis of knee joint.

A clinical case series of COVID-19-associated acute limb ischemia: real-world situation

BackgroundCOVID-19 was a trending topic all year long in 2020. Currently, it is not only a problem for a pulmonologist since it could cause complications to many other organs, including the cardiovascular system. Recent acute COVID-19 infection state has been associated with hypercoagulation and causing microthrombi called immunothrombus. Acute limb ischemia is one of the rare complications but organ-threatening. Unfortunately, unlike coronary artery disease, there is no recent guideline for cardiologists to diagnose and manage acute limb ischemia in pandemic situationsCase presentationThis case series presented two patients with acute limb injury (ALI)-complicating COVID-19, with chief complaints of pain at their lower extremity. The first patient was an 80-year-old woman who was just dismissed from the hospital due to COVID-19. The distal part of her toe was cyanosed, and her motoric and sensory functions were partially reduced. She was treated with oral drug therapy due to unwillingness to be hospitalized. Interestingly, she had recovered by using oral drug therapy. The second case was a 54-years-old female with several comorbidities such as obesity, type 2 diabetes mellitus, hypertension, dyslipidemia, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. She had cyanosed foot and weak arterial pulsation. Unfortunately, she passed away due to acute respiratory distress syndrome.ConclusionSeveral internal and external factors cause ALI treatment to be more challenging in the pandemic COVID-19 situation. The diagnosis and management of ALI in COVID-19 patients may not fully comply with the current guideline and are likely to be affected by local hospital regulations. Clinical follow-up might be an essential feature in treating ALI in COVID-19 patients.

A prospective study to compare serial changes in pain scores for patients with and without a history of frequent ED utilization

BackgroundIn the face of the opiate addiction epidemic, there is a paucity of research that evaluates limitations for our current pain rating methodologies for patient populations at risk for drug seeking behavior. ObjectiveWe hypothesized that VAS scores would be higher and show less serial improvement for patients with a history of frequent ED use. MethodsThis was a prospective, observational cohort study of a convenience sample of adult ED patients with chief complaint of pain. Initial VAS scores were recorded. Pain scores were subsequently updated 30–45 min after pain medication administration. ED frequenter defined as having >4 ED visits over a 1-year time period. Categorical data analyzed by chi-square; continuous data analyzed by t-tests. A multiple linear regression performed to control for confounding. Results125 patients were enrolled; 51% ED frequenters. ED frequenters were similar to non-ED frequenters with respect to gender, mean age, Hispanic race, educational level, chief complaint type, and initial pain medication narcotic. ED frequenters more likely to have higher initial VAS score (9.17+/-1.25 vs. 8.51+/-1.68; p = 0.01) and higher second VAS scores (7.48+/-2.56 vs. 5.00+/-3.28; p <0.001) and significantly lower mean change in first to second VAS scores (1.69+/-2.17 vs. 3.51+/-3.25; p <0.001). Within our multiple linear regression model, only ED frequenter group (p < 0.001) and private insurance status (0.04) were associated with differences in mean reduction in pain scores. ConclusionWe found that ED frequenters had significantly less improvement between first and second VAS measurements.

SURGICAL ACCESS OF BILATERAL TRANSMIGRATED IMPACTED MANDIBULAR CANINES: A RARE PHENOMENON - CASE REPORT

Bilateral transmigration of impacted mandibular permanent canines,an extremely uncommon occurrence.The mid-symphyseal region is where,the intraosseous tooth migration takes place.The tooth does not erupt in its usual occusal position and it crosses the mandible\'s midline. Here, a 28 year old male reported to the department of oral surgery,with chief complaints of pain and sensitivity in the lower front teeth region since 1 month. The mandibular right and left deciduous canines were seen to be retained on intraoral inspection. Orthopantomogram revealed mandibular right and left horizontal impacted permanent canines migrated towards the midline and situated below the apices of incisives.The two impacted canines were surgically removed,along with retained deciduous canines were also extracted out normally under local anaesthesia and under preoperative intravenous antibiotic medications. A follow-up on the patient is underway.

Successful Treatment of Chronic Back and Leg Pain With Lower Than Usual Placement of High-Frequency Spinal Cord Stimulation in a Patient With Uncorrected Tethered Cord: Case Report

ABSTRACT BACKGROUND AND IMPORTANCE Tethered cord syndrome (TCS) often leads to severe back and leg pain. The typical treatment to stall disease progression is untethering surgery, but this is not always effective for pain. Spinal cord stimulation (SCS) is an efficacious treatment for neuropathic pain. However, it has seldom been utilized in TCS cases. Moreover, with cord elongation, ideal paddle placement is not certain. CLINICAL PRESENTATION We present the case of a 77-yr-old male with severe chronic lower-back and lower-extremity pain. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed severe lumbar spine degenerative changes, along with a previously undiagnosed spina bifida and conus medullaris termination at L5. We felt that SCS would be the best treatment avenue for his chief complaint of pain. Due to cord elongation, we trialed lower placement of the high-frequency (HF)-SCS system at T11-T12, which led to 80% improvement in pain symptoms within 1 wk and ability to walk for the first time in a year. At his first follow-up appointment, the patient endorsed 80% to 90% relief of his lower-back and bilateral lower-extremity pain, which improved to 100% relief at 12 mo at last visit. CONCLUSION Only 4 other reports were identified in the literature utilizing SCS in TCS cases. Our case adds to the limited body of literature that SCS is an effective therapy for pain in TCS and degenerative spine disease. Only 2 other reports employed lower than usual lead placement. Our case demonstrates that lead placement may need to be changed to accommodate the elongated cord.

Bilateral lesion centered access cavity preparation in mandibular first premolars: A case report

Lesion-centered access cavity preparation has gained attention due to the conservative and reliable approach to the main canal with preservation of tooth structure and aesthetics. Traditional access cavity preparation in tooth with cervical caries causes increased loss of tooth structure. In this case report, a cervical approach of access cavity preparation and root canal therapy was attempted by excavation of the cervical caries on right and left mandibular first premolar. A 38-year-old patient was referred with the chief complaint of pain in the left and right lower back tooth region for past 1 week. Based on the clinical and radiographic findings, a diagnosis of irreversible pulpitis was established. Minimally invasive access cavity preparation was completed through the Bucco-cervical surfaces, canals were located using DG-16 probe, straight line access was established, cleaning and shaping was carried out using flexible heat-treated rotary files and obturated. The cervical access cavity was restored with composite resin to re-establish aesthetics and function. Treatment was completed with reduced iatrogenic damage to tooth structure with conservation of occlusal surfaces and a follow -up was done after 1 year to evaluate the prognosis.

Lipoid Proteinosis - A Rarity in An Adult

Background: Lipoid proteinosis is a rare genodermatosis with autosomal recessive inheritance. It isa multisystem disorder characterized by progressive deposition of hyaline material in the skin, mucousmembrane and different organs of the body. The disease is presented by dermatological, laryngeal,ophthalmological, and neurological manifestations. Involvement of oral mucosa may lead to xerostomia anddysphagia; involvement of larynx and eyes results in hoarseness of voice at early infancy and moniliformblepharosis. Extracutaneous involvement includes neurological manifestations like psychosis, partialcomplex seizures, anger, panic attacks, and progressive amnesia. Till date around 300 cases have beenreported in literature.Case Report: A 63 years old male patient reported with chief complaints of pain in the right and left cheekregion, difficulty in swallowing food and dryness of mouth.Conclusion: Lipoid Proteinosis requires multidisciplinary opinion and evaluation by dermatologists,ophthalmologists, otolaryngologists, neurologists and psychiatrist. Clinical features and histopathologicalevaluation aids in the confirmation of the disease. Lipoid proteinosis should be considered one among thedifferential diagnosis when patient reports with difficulty in mouth opening, enlarged tongue, difficult inchewing and swallowing.
