Despite the fact that it is rarely found in the appendix during pregnancy, ectopic decidua can, in some cases, cause the occlusion of the appendicular lumen by extrinsic compression due to the expansion of endometrial tissue or due to decidua polyp formation. This condition consequently leads to appendicular inflammation. We report the case of a 27-year-old primigravida woman, 32 weeks of gestation, who presented to our facility with a 2-day history of isolated right iliac fossa pain. The diagnosis of an acute appendicitis was suspected and a planned appendectomy was performed. Microscopical examination showed appendicular deciduosis.
This article describes a case report of rehabilitation of missing mandibular premolar using implant supported crown and a flapless surgery. A 23 year old female patient, with agenesis of second premolar, was referred to the department of fixed prosthodontics at Dental Clinic of Monastir. Comprehensive examination revealed that, an orthodontic treatment was set up leading to space opening. The edentulous ridge was measured and it was suitable for adequate dimensions of second premolar. The adjacent teeth were vital, free from caries and fillings. Radiographic evaluation showed the feasibility of implant placement in the edentulous site. A flapless surgery technique was performed for implant placement. The implant supported crown was cemented using Zinc phosphate cement.
Les duplications de l'appareil digestif sont les malformations congénitales rares qui peuvent toucher tout l'appareil digestive depuis la bouche jusqu’ à l'anus. Certaines duplications sont asymptomatiques et sont diagnostiqués dans la plupart des cas pendant l'enfance. La prise en charge de la duplication gastrique est essentiellement chirurgicale. Le traitement de choix est l'exérèse complète de la duplication gastrique. Les auteurs rapportent un cas inhabituel de duplication gastrique complètement reséquée par laparoscopie. A notre connaissance, ceci est le premier cas d'une duplication gastrique traitée avec succès par laparoscopie dans la littérature Tunisienne. La Résection laparoscopique peut être ajoutée à l'arsenal thérapeutique dans le traitement chirurgical de duplications du tube digestif.
