[Abrikosoff's tumor of the soft palate. A case report].

Abrikossoff's tumor or granular cell tumor is an infrequent benign neoplasm, accurately described by Abrikossoff in 1926. We report the case of a young man, 19-year-old, affected with an Abrikossoff's tumor, sitting on the soft palate. After the timely perusal of the subject, we emphasize the peculiarity of the palatine localisation as well the importance of anatomical pathology in order to get a correct diagnosis of these neoformations of soft's parts.

[Malignant rhinosinusal inverted papilloma with orbital involvement].

Contribution with the case of a woman 55-year-old in whom was objectified the recurrence of an inverted rhinosinusal papilloma and, under the anatomopathological viewpoint, an epidermoid carcinoma on the inverted papilloma. Was treated with surgery and radiotherapy. Remarks on several clinical, pathological and therapeutic aspects about inverted rhinosinusal papillomata, underlying its uncertain course so characteristic of these neoformations.

[Kikuchi's necrotizing lymphadenitis. Clinical and pathological study of a new case].

Contribution to the topic with the case of a woman, 24, admitted in our ENT Department for exam and treatment of multiple right sided adenopathies of the neck. The histopathological study was consistent with diagnosis of Kikuchi's necrotizing lymphadenitis. This is a new clinicopathologic entity first described, 1972, by Kikuchi, of unknown etiology, an a picture characterized for painful cervical lymphadenitis presented in young women and healing spontaneously after 2-3 months course. We want to emphasize in this paper the scarcity of cases published and the difficulties arising when dealing with the differential diagnosis with lympho-proliferative malignancies as well.

[Cystic formations of the maxilla. Case report].

The case of a man, 28, addressed to our ENT-Department complaining of pain and swelling of the left half of the face is presented. After X-Ray and tomographic study the diagnosis of an included tooth inside the maxillary sinus, accompanied by one cyst, is evidenced. In addition a canine tooth as well included on the floor of the nose and under the lower homonyme turbinate, is disclosed. Through sinusal approach, via Caldwell-Luc, are removed the lesions encountered. Then, the AA., attempt to classify the group of several cystic structures of maxillary sitting, aiming at unify the nomenclature of this pathology, and made a brief description of each type.

[Microbiology of acute external otitis in our environment].

The paper deals with the review done by the AA. about the microbiology of 135 acute diffuse external otitis cases, treated at their Department in one year term. In the series is emphasized the seasonal distribution, steadily uniform in the studied period, being the Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Candida albicans the paramount responsible for these otitis.

[Retropharyngeal abscess due to atypical mycobacteria. Case report].

It is a rare clinico-pathological infection located in the retropharyngeal space. Our contribution refer to a young man suffering this complaint caused by atypical mycobacteria, being the aim of the paper to underline the exceptional placement. The difficulties encountered in establishing the bacteriological diagnosis as well the excellent response to a combined treatment with tuberculostatics and surgery.

[Relapsing polychondritis. An infrequent cartilage disease].

Report of a case affecting a middle-age woman, 48, involving the E.N.T. area only. The AA comment on the features of the disease and report on the good results with medical treatment (prednisolone, indomethacin and dapsone).

[Acute external otitis: retrospective study of 170 cases].

170 external otitis have been diagnosed and treated for one year (1989) in our ENT department. The etiology of the otitis was both bacterial and mycotic. The purpose of this paper is to study the clinical, therapeutic, epidemiologic and microbiologic aspects of this type of otitis.

[Sinusal cystic adenoid carcinoma. Study of a case].

One case of adenoid cystic carcinoma of maxillary sinus is reported. Is a malignant epithelial tumor which develops in major and minor salivary glands. Is the malignant tumor most common in the minor salivary glands. Incidence in the paranasal sinuses lies between 2-5% of all malignant tumors. These tumors grow by extensive local infiltration and perineural spread is a common feature. They are very high malignancy tumors.

[Craniopharyngioma of the nasopharynx. Apropos of a case].

A case report of a nine year-old child with a basal skull and nasopharynx craniopharyngioma, whose initial manifestation was nasal respiratory insufficiency and ophthalmologic pathology, is presented. The diagnosis was possible due to some Departments collaboration by excellent images of CT and MR and confirmed histopathologically after its total excision performed by U. Fisch type C infratemporal approach, which is used for nasopharyngeal carcinomas and juvenile angiofibromas.

[Cystic lymphangioma].

Lymphangioma is a benign, congenital type of tumour which can be classified as a malformation of the lymphatic vessels with an enlargement and a proliferation of same. It is divided, depending on the calibre of the vessels, into Capillary, Cavernous and cystic. 80% of these lesions are located in the neck; 50% of these cases are already evident at the moment of birth and 90% prior to the 2nd year of life. Its treatment is surgical but, due to the large number of digitations present, its complete removal is difficult to achieve, thereby giving rise to frequent relapses. We are submitting the case of a three and a half-year-old girl who was operated on in our department. With this, we would like to contribute to a greater knowledge of this pathology.

[Laryngeal traumatism following a hunting accident].

Laryngo-tracheal traumatisms are not frequent at peace time. They are life-threatening chirurgical situations. They frequently use to be multiple lesions and attaining several anatomic regions. They are considered mortal situations if they are localized in head and neck regions. We report one case of such pathology in a 33 years old male who suffered a laryngeal and thoracic injury for firearm.

[Osteoma of the mastoid].

Osteoma of the mastoid is a osseous, benign and infrequent tumour. To date approximately 50 such cases in the world, and 7 cases in Spain have been described. Clinically this tumours are asymptomatic, except by cosmetic deformities, and are usually unsuspected roentgenographic findings. Treatment is surgical through a postauricular approach. A case of osteoma of the mastoid and a review of the literature is presented.

[Malignant nasosinusal melanoma: apropos of a case].

We present a case of a nasosinusal malignant melanoma with a really fulminant evolution, as the patient died two and a half months after the diagnostic biopsy and five months after the initial symptoms. A bibliographic review of these rare tumours is realized, and those data of the world literature we could reach concerning to incidence, clinic features, histopathology, diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis, are analyzed.

[Crocodile tears syndrome].

The syndrome of crocodile tears, or Bogorad's syndrome is a rare complication of the facial paralysis. It's characterized by lachrymation on the same side of the palsy in connection with stimulation of salivation (e.g. when eating). We present a case of Melkersson's syndrome who developed a syndrome of crocodile tears.

[Pharyngeal keratosis].

A case of keratosis pharyngis is presented. This disease is infrequent, benign and of etiology unknown. Clinically present horny outgrowths in the lymphatic tissue of the pharynx, but without symptoms. The horny projections sooner or later disappear spontaneously in months or years, however tonsillectomy seems to be indicated in all cases in which the symptoms are worrying the patient, who present an evident "cancerophobia" frequent symptom of this disease.
