A Rare Case of a Cervical Thymic Cyst Presenting in Adulthood

The cervical thymic cyst (CTC) is a rare, benign neck mass that most commonly presents in the pediatric population. These entities can occur anywhere along the normal path of descent of the thymus from the mandible to the sternal notch, and extension into the mediastinum has been observed. The presentation of these masses is often characterized by a painless, enlarging neck mass in a child during the first decade of life. Although most patients are asymptomatic, abutment of the cyst against local...

Constant severe imbalance following traumatic otoconial loss: a new explanation of residual dizziness

Abstract Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) is the most common type of vertigo, caused by otoconia falling from the utricle into a semicircular canal (SCC). After successful repositioning maneuvers residual dizziness (RD) has been described and several reasons are used to explain RD. It can last for only a few days or weeks, but also much longer. We present a patient with a severe traumatic loss of otoconia from both maculae utriculi and a persistent imbalance more than...

Micro-metastasis and isolated tumour cells: the span between elective neck dissection versus neck observation in early oral cancer

Abstract Early oral squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) has a propensity for lymph-node metastasis. To address or not to address the neck electively during the ablative surgery has been an ongoing debate. In recent years, some practice-changing trial and systematic reviews have emerged and put to rest the discussion of elective neck dissection versus neck observation. Today elective neck is not a mere staging procedure. It has a definitive survival advantage, but the pathological basis...
