Neurofibroma plessiforme non NF-1 associato
Il neurofibroma plessifonnc è un tumore che origina dalle guaine delle fibre nervose periferiche ed è frequentemente associato alla neurofibromatosi di tipo l (malattia di von Recklinghausen). In letteratura sono descritti rari casi di neurofibroma p lessi forme isolato non associato a tale sindrome genetica.Plexiform neurofibroma is an uncommon tu m or of the pcripheral n erve sheaths. l t is frequently associatcd with neurofibromatosis type-1 ( von Reck linghausen 's diseasc ). l n l iteraturc iso lated pie x i form neurofibroma has been rarely reported
Linfocitoma cutis da Borrelia: localizzazione atipica in un adulto
ll linfocitoma cutis è una rara manifestazione cutanea della malattia di Lyme riscontrabile in Europa nel
3% dei pazienti affetti da borreliosi. In genere si manifesta con una singola lesione eritemato-bluastra
nodulare o in placca di varie dimensioni che tende a ingrandirsi lentamente. lllin focitoma cutis è raro
negli adulti e la localizzazione più frequente è in prossimità dell 'areola mammaria. Nel caso descritto
la peculiarità è legata alla sede della lesione, la regione lombare.8orrelial lymphocytoma is a rare skin manifestation of Lyme disease. lt is usually a single bluish-red
nodule or plaque, that slowly enlarges, varying in size from millimeters to few centimeters. 8 orrelial
lymphocytoma is rare in adult patients and it is localized in the breast. In our report interestingly borrelial
lymphocytoma is localized in lumbar region

Two typical cases of pseudoankylosis of the jaw : same treatment, different outcome
Pseudoankylosis of the temporomandibular joint is a rare, extra-articular form of ankylosis of the jaw. It is characterised by limited mandibular movement caused by an extrinsic condition of the joint leading to fusion between the coronoid process and temporal, zygomatic or maxillary bone. Pseudoankylosis is less frequent than the intracapsular form. Extracapsular ankylosis can be congenital or acquired; approximately 70% of cases are associated with trauma. A CT scan is usually requested to achieve a diagnosis. CT can detect bony fusion, thus differentiating pseudoankylosis from true ankylosis. Once symptomatic bone ankylosis is diagnosed, surgery with postoperative physiotherapy is the recommended treatment. The ankylotic bone is removed together with the coronoid process and the mouth is forced open under general anaesthesia. Two cases of post-traumatic pseudoankylosis of the jaw treated with bilateral coronoidectomy and postoperative physiotherapy are described
