Nevoid basal cell carcinoma syndrome associated with renal cysts and hypertension.

A case of nevoid basal cell carcinoma syndrome with a coincidental finding is presented. In addition to the odontogenic cysts, hypertelorism, scapula deformity, rib fusion, dural calcification, and short fourth metacarpal bones of the syndrome, the patient had cystic disease of both kidneys with a large cyst of the right kidney. This case also illustrates that the presence of painful jaw lesions may lead the patient with this syndrome to seek treatment initially.

Necrotizing sialometaplasia: an early, nonulcerative presentation.

Necrotizing sialometaplasia usually presents as a painless, deeply excavating ulcer and is considered in the differential diagnosis of large palatal ulcers along with mucoepidermoid carcinoma and adenoid cystic carcinoma. This case is presented to illustrate that the early signs and symptoms of necrotizing sialometaplasia may be swelling with a purulent exudate, diffuse, vague pain, and numbness. It also demonstrates the rapidity with which initial signs of healing become apparent. This latter clinically suggests a benign process.
