“…The occurrence of pilar cysts in the temporal region is rare, and the presence of a pilar cyst in a patient with a history of osteomyelitis of the mandible is extremely rare [2]. Rare cases of the oral and maxillofacial region [6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15] require accurate clinical assessment, proper diagnosis, and appropriate treatment.…”

Pilar cysts/trichilemmal cysts are benign lesions that arise from the hair follicle epithelium. The commonest area of occurrence is the scalp but it can also occur in the head and neck region. The pilar cyst grows at a prolonged rate. They are relatively rare and occur in about 10% of the population. They appear in the region of high concentrations of hair follicles. A 75-year-old male patient came to the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery with a chief complaint of swelling on the left side of the face for the past one year. Cytological examination revealed an infected cystic lesion. Computed tomography (CT) showed a well-defined lesion in the left temporal region. After surgical excision of the lesion, it was sent for histopathological examination. Excisional biopsy revealed a pilar cyst. We report a rare case of pilar cyst in the left temporal region in a patient who was previously operated on for osteomyelitis of the left side of the mandible up to the coronoid process. These cysts may mimic temporal space infection and lead to an incorrect treatment plan.

“…When the lesion invades the adjacent bone, there is a high chance of recurrence [5,12]. Various rare cases need special attention in diagnosis and treatment planning [13][14][15][16][17], and this can be done by knowledge sharing through the publication of the experiences as case reports, case series, randomized controlled trials, etc. [18][19][20].…”

Adenoid cystic carcinoma is a malignant neoplasm primarily of the salivary gland, which can also involve lacrimal glands and other exocrine glands. Adenoid cystic carcinoma rarely presents in the buccal mucosa and young children, and among the major salivary glands, it rarely occurs in the sublingual gland. We are presenting two cases of Grade 1- adenoid cystic carcinoma. One in the buccal mucosa of an eight-year-old boy and another in the sublingual gland of a 50-year-old female patient. The site and age of occurrence can make a huge difference in diagnosis and treatment planning due to the unpredictability of the lesion. Proper diagnosis, treatment planning, and appropriate treatment help improve the lesion's prognosis. Even though such lesions rarely occur, awareness among the Oral and maxillofacial fraternity is very important in providing proper patient care.
