Herniated Intervertebral Disc l: Introduction

Herniated Intervertebral Disc l: Introduction

Intervertebral disc herniation refers to the displacement of the nucleus pulposus (the gel-like inner core of the disc) through a tear or weakened area in the annulus fibrosus (the outer fibrous ring). The displaced disc material extends beyond the normal boundaries of the disc space and may compress or irritate nearby spinal nerve roots or, less commonly, the spinal cord.Etiology and Risk FactorsHerniation commonly results from degeneration, in which aging reduces disc hydration and...

Brain Abscess l: Introduction

Brain Abscess l: Introduction

A brain abscess is a focal, intracerebral infection characterized by a localized collection of pus within the brain parenchyma, resulting from microbial invasion and the body’s inflammatory response. It progresses through stages: early and late cerebritis, followed by early and late capsule formation, reflecting tissue destruction, immune response, and eventual encapsulation.Etiology and PathogenesisCausative organisms vary with source and host factors, often involving polymicrobial infections,...

Area of Science:

Dentistry
Oral Pathology
Maxillofacial Surgery

Background:

Radicular cysts are the most frequent cystic lesions found in the jaw.
Typically, these cysts are well-defined radiolucencies located at the tooth apex.

Observation:

A rare case of an unusually large, multilocular radicular cyst is presented.
The cyst extended across the midline, affecting a significant portion of the mandible.

Findings:

The lesion's clinical and radiographic presentation mimicked aggressive cysts or benign tumors.
Surgical excision of the cyst and endodontic treatment of the involved teeth were performed.

Implications:

This case expands the understanding of radicular cyst presentation and size.
Successful surgical and endodontic management of large mandibular radicular cysts is demonstrated.
