An extremely unusual case of epidermoid cyst showing diffuse parakeratosis and aggressive clinical behavior is presented. A destructive bone lesion with surrounding ill-defined soft tissue lesion was found by computed tomography in a 63 year-old man complaining of painful swelling of the right buttock. He had a history of surgical excision twice for epidermoid cysts of soft tissue of the right hip during recent one year On aspiration cytology, the aspirate was highly cellular and mostly composed of desquamated nucleated squamous cells. Operation finding revealed that the iliac bone was Irregularly destroyed and filled with gray-white cheesy material and necrotic bone bedris. Adjacent gluteus muscle showed scattered gray-white lesions. The curettage specimen showed bone necrosis and desquamated squamous cells filling the marrow spaces. The lesion within muscle revealed epidermoid cyst with diffuse parakeratosis.

Enchondromas generally occur in the hand and uncommonly in the long bones. Because enchondromas are usually asymptomatic, most are discovered during diagnostic radiology for another disease. Here, we describe a case of enchondroma in the right humerus in a 79-year-old female patient with concomitant rotator cuff tear arthropathy. The patient was initially hospitalized for prolonged pain and pseudoparalysis of the right shoulder. The condition, which was histologically confirmed as an enchondroma in the proximal humerus, was treated with curettage and reverse total shoulder arthroplasty. In this case report, we present a rare case of an enchondroma with combined rotator cuff tear arthropathy.

Giant cell tumor of the talus is an extremely rare condition and therapeutic options are ill defined. Recently we experienced a case of giant cell tumor of the talar body in a 20-year-old male treated by curettage and bone graft. There was no recurrence at 1year follow-up. A case report and review of the literature are presented.

Osteopetrosis is a rare skeletal disease of unknown etiology. Osteomyelitic changes in the jaw bones are frequently seen in this disease, especially in the mandible and may follow upon tooth extraction. A case is reported of a 31-year-old male who was seen because of intraorally exposed bony spicule and chronic dull pain. Radiographic and haematological investigations led to the diagnosis of osteopeirosis with osteomyelitis. The striking radiologic findings were pathologic mandibular fracture and generalized skeletal thickening. The present case could be grouped under the benign form, type II osteopetrosis. With the conservative and minimally invasive modes of treatment including administration of penicillin G sodium, curettage and closed reduction, we could successfully manage the osteomyelitis and pathologic fracture associated osteopetrosis.

Ameloblastic fibro-odontoma(AFO) is a rare mixed odontogenic tumor. It is composed of connective tissue characteristic of an ameloblastic fibroma and calcified tissue as a complex or compound odontoma. AFO usually presents itself as an asymptomatic swelling of jaw or failure of tooth eruption. The lesion usually occurs in individual less than 30 years old. The differential diagnosis of this tumor includes odontoma, ameloblastoma, and ameloblastic fibroma. This report describes an ameloblastic fibro-odontoma occurring in maxilla of sixteen-year-old female. The lesion was treated by surgical enucleation and curettage without extraction of the involved canine(#23). This patient has shown no sign of recurrence during postoperative 34 months. So we report our case with review of literatures

The incidence of the tuberculosis infection has decreased worldwide, but it is still easy to find the patients in some areas or some races. And it is very difficult to diagnose and treat the patients who are infected by the atypical tuberculosis. Facial skin infection by atypical tuberculosis has not been reported. We report the case of a 62-year-old woman who developed facial skin and soft tissue necrosis caused by Mycobacterium abscessus after receiving liquid silicone injections and face lift operation. We cultured the pathogenic organism and treated the wound with radical curettage, debridement, skin graft and tuberculosis medication.

외과적 치주처치의 근본 목적은 치주낭을 제거함으로써 질환의 진행을 정지시키고 치주조직을 건강한 상태로 회복시켜 주는데 있다. 임상에서 적용할 수 있는 외과적 처치술식은 치주낭의 깊이, 부착치은의 폭경, 치조골의 상태, 염증의 진행정도 등의 사항을 고려하여 선택되어져야 하며, 대표적인 술식으로는 치은 절제술(gingivectomy), 치은 판막술(modified Widman flap, open flap curettage)등을 들 수 있다. 치은 절제술은 치은조직을 제거해야 한다는 의미에서 볼 때 부착치은의 넓이와 골내낭의 유무를 판단하여야 하며 치은판막술은 깊은 치주낭을 성성하고 있거나 골내낭이 있거나 부가적인 치조골의 처치가 필요한 경우 시행될 수 있다. 그러나 외과적 치주처치의 어떤 방법을 택하던지간에 계속적인 치태관리가 더 중요한 요인으로 강조되어야 한다.

Hitiocytosis X, recently termed Langergans cell histiocytosis, is a rare disease histologically characterized by an abnormal proliferation of histiocytes, and of which the pathophysiology is still ambiguous. The clinical presentation is highly varied. Typically, there is a solitary or multiple bony involvements, and less frequently, lesions are found in other organs such as the lungs, liver, lymph nodes, skin, and mucosae. Interestingly, so far, there has been no report which shows multiple developments in both soft and hard tissues. In this report, we present a case of hitiocytosis X in both mandible and lung. This may provide some information for understanding the pathophysilogy of the histiocytosis X.

A 12-year-old female was referred from a dental clinic due to a radiolucent area under the lower right first and second premolars. The lesion was diagnosed as a simple bone cyst radiographically. However, she complained lasting pain during 10 month follow up. Therefore curettage was performed and it defined as an osteoid osteoma on the histopathologic examination. As the lesion recurred, one year later, enucleation was performed. We report this case to help the diagnosis of osteoid osteoma in mandible.
