A ciliated foregut cyst is a rare developmental anomaly. It develops from the primitive foregut. It is usually located supra-diaphragmatically. Its localization in the gallbladder is very infrequent and has been sparsely reported. We report a rare case of a ciliated cyst of the gallbladder in an 11-year-old female, who presented with complaints of upper abdominal pain for 2 months. She was suspected to have gallbladder duplication or gallbladder diverticulum on imaging. The histopathology reported this anomaly as a ciliated foregut cyst. The ciliated cyst of the gallbladder is a benign congenital lesion. Abdominal ultrasonogram and computed tomography/magnetic resonance imaging are suggestive of a cystic lesion of the gallbladder. The definitive diagnosis is by histopathological examination. This is a rare clinicopathological condition in the pediatric age group. The recommended treatment is laparoscopic cholecystectomy. The role of conservative management has not been established due to the rarity of the condition.

Selecting an appropriate implant imaging technique has become a challenging task since the advent of advanced imaging modalities, and many of these are used for implant imaging. On imaging, the modality should not only consider the anatomy but should also provide dimensional accuracy. Many dentists use the conventional method, mostly orthopantograph (OPG), in their routine practice of implant placement. However, because of the drawbacks associated with OPG, higher technologies, such as computed tomography (CT) and cone beam computed tomography (CBCT), are better accepted. These help improve image sharpness and reduce distortion. These techniques are not used widely due to the cost effect. Therefore, to decide on the type of imaging technique, all associated advantages and disadvantages should be considered, which will be broadly discussed in this review.

The loss or disfigurement of a body parts specially that pertaining to the face has a deep psychological and social impact on the patient. After enucleation, evisceration or exteneration of the eye, the aim of an ocular prosthesis should be to restore the natural appearance, install confidence and a sense social acceptability in the patient. Custom made prosthesis has several advantages over the stock eye prosthesis. This article illustrates rehabilitation of the enucleated right eye of a patient with a custom made ocular prosthesis.

BACKGROUND: Occupational injuries cause major health problems, which the developed, developing, and underdeveloped nations worldwide are facing today. The present study aimed to assess dental caries, periodontal health of stone mine workers, and the relationship between wasting diseases and the years of working experience. METHODS: The study population comprised 510 men, selected based on the stratified cluster sampling procedure. Clinical oral examinations were carried out, and periodontal disease, dental caries, and wasting diseases were recorded. RESULTS: Workers were in the age group of 17-56 years; the prevalence of dental caries in the workers was found to be 74%, with a mean decayed, missing, filled teeth index of 2.89. A periodontal pocket of more than 6 mm was observed in 6% of the workers. CONCLUSION: The oral health of mine workers is in a poor state; steps should be taken so as to provide basic medical and dental care facilities.
