“…Other causes include vascular lesions such as carotid aneurysms [16], jugular vein phlebitis, and especially glomus jugulare tumours [14]. Iatrogenic causes include IJV catheterisation, cerebral angiography, heart surgery, and cerebral vessel clamping [16] as well as surgical emphysema secondary to cryotherapy [17]. Other rarities reported include Lyme disease, polyarteritis nodosa, haemangiopericytoma, idiopathic cranial polyneuropathy [15], and Trousseaus syndrome (migratory thrombophbitis associated with gastric cancer) [1].…”

Purpose. Collet-Sicard syndrome is a very rare condition characterised by unilateral palsy of the IX–XII cranial nerves. It is distinguished from Villaret syndrome by lack of presence of sympathetic involvement. Current literature contains only two cases of Collet-Sicard syndrome due to idiopathic internal jugular vein thrombosis. Method and Results. We report the case of Collet-Sicard syndrome in a 30-year-old man who presented with delayed development of XIth nerve dysfunction, due to internal jugular vein-sigmoid sinus thrombosis. A multidisciplinary team approach was employed in the management of this patient. At three-month followup, he had significantly improved swallowing, and repeat computed tomography neck scan showed partial recanalisation of the right internal jugular vein. Conclusion. In suspected Collet-Sicard syndrome, a focal primary lesion or metastasis to the temporal bone must be excluded, and sigmoid-jugular complex thrombosis should be considered in the differential diagnosis. Early recognition and treatment may result in significant functional recovery.

Combined deficit of the four lower cranial nerves (CN IX, X, XI, and XII) was originally described by French physicians Collet (1915) and Sicard (1917) during World War I. To date though, this rare neurological clinical picture lacks systematic evidence regarding its epidemiology, clinical presentation, treatment strategies, and outcome. We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis concerning Collet-Sicard syndrome (CSS) on Medline database in accordance with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines. The research yielded 84 articles among which 73 individual case reports were eventually retained. Mean age was 53.7 (± 16) years old and the male-to-female ratio was 1.8/1. CSS was firstly caused by tumors (38.4%), following by vascular etiologies (28.8%), trauma (16.4%), and infection (6.8%), among others. Temporary enteral nutrition was required for 17 patients (23.3%). The four CN presented significant chances of complete or partial recovery: 52.1% for CN IX (p < 0.001), 46.6% for CN X and CN XII (p < 0.001), and 39.7% for CN XI (p = 0.002). Tumoral causes presented significantly lower chances of favorable CN recovery (7.1%) compared to infection (60%), vascular (52.4%), and trauma (41.7%) (p < 0.001). Older age (> 53 years old) was not associated with a dismal CN prognostic (p = 0.763). Most patients (71.2%) presented a favorable outcome (Glasgow Outcome Scale score ≥ 4). All the patients who died (6.8%) suffered from skull base tumors. CSS is a rare condition requiring prompt clinical and radiologic diagnostic and multidisciplinary management. Vascular or infectious-related CSS seem to present a rather good prognostic, closely followed by trauma, whereas tumoral-related CSS seem to suffer from a more dismal prognostic.

Introduction: Subcutaneous emphysema is defined as the abnormal presence of air or gas in the body tissues or tissue spaces. In dentistry, however, subcutaneous emphysema is most often a consequence of compressed air being forced into the subcutaneous tissues through the intra-oral barrier. Most often the air comes from the slow hand-piece, the turbine and the dental air syringe, although recent reports have surfaced of emphysema being caused by air coming from an air abrasion tool, CO 2 laser or a cryotherapy device. Case description: A case of air emphysema following by drying the cavity with dental syringe. Discussion of prophylactic and treatment of air emphysema. Conclusions: Subcutaneous emphysema is one of the less common complications that may occur during the treatment of carious lesions. It is usually limited to moderate swelling of soft tissues, which due to slow regression becomes an unpleasant complication for the patient. The air that has entered to the subcutaneous tissue carries the risk of causing an infection like cellulitis or necrosis of fascial and therefore requires the use of antibiotic therapy. Although emphysema is a medical complication, often harmless, it should be remembered that there is always a risk of serious consequences requiring specialized treatment. Prompt and appropriate diagnosis enables effective treatment of emphysema.
