With a solitary remaining tooth in the mandible, restoration with a conventional removable partial denture is often associated with insufficient retention, support, and stability, as well as excessive stress concentration on the remaining tooth, leading to an unfavorable prognosis. Recently, treatment plans involving the placement of a small number of strategically positioned implants to fabricate removable partial dentures have been adopted to overcome these limitations.The use of implant surveyed crowns is considered to offer superior long-term outcomes compared with implant attachments. This report describes the restoration of a partially edentulous mandible with a single remaining tooth using an implant-assisted removable partial denture assisted by a surveyed fixed partial denture following bilateral posterior implant placement, achieving favorable clinical results.

For patients with a few remaining abutment teeth, traditional removable partial dentures and implant-supported fixed prostheses are common treatment options.However, removable dentures often struggle to provide stability, especially as bone resorption occurs over time. Implant-supported fixed prostheses offer longterm stability but are costly and affected by anatomical and medical factors. A newer option is implant-assisted removable partial dentures, which use a minimal number of implants combined with a surveyed crown. This approach enhances support, retention, and stability while reducing financial and surgical burdens. It also improves the prognosis of the remaining teeth, increases patient satisfaction, and enhances masticatory function, making it a promising alternative to conventional removable dentures.

Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is a common form of hand mononeuropathy that is typi-cally caused by median nerve compression. Although it is often idiopathic, CTS can also result from various conditions, including space-occupying lesions. Tumoral calcinosis, a rare condition characterized by periarticular deposition of calcified masses, is an un-common cause of secondary CTS. We present a case of a 78-year-old woman with idio-pathic tumoral calcinosis that caused secondary CTS. Despite conservative treatments, her symptoms persisted, and diagnostic imaging, including radiographs, computed to-mography, and magnetic resonance imaging, revealed a calcified mass in the carpal tun-nel. A surgical intervention involving carpal tunnel release and excisional biopsy con-firmed the diagnosis of tumoral calcinosis. Postoperatively, the patient showed complete resolution of symptoms, with no recurrence on follow-up radiographs. This case high-lights the importance of considering space-occupying lesions, such as tumoral calcinosis, as a rare but treatable cause of secondary CTS.

An ilio-iliac arteriovenous fistula (AVF) is rare. Common factors leading to ilio-iliac AVF include congenital malformations, iatrogeny, and trauma. There is limited documentation in the literature of cases involving ilio-iliac AVF with May-Thurner syndrome. Here, we present a case of an ilio-iliac AVF with May-Thurner syndrome in an 80-year-old male. CT and angiography confirmed extensive ilio-iliac AVF. Successful endovascular procedures for ilio-iliac AVF were performed using several variablesized coils and 1400–2000 µm gelatin particles. After embolization, follow-up abdominopelvic CT revealed an improvement in edema in the left leg.

Removable partial denture wearers are exposed to the risks that remaining teeth get damaged by caries, attritions, erosion, and fracture. In the case of damaged abutment tooth which should fit to Removable partial denture (RPD), the fabrication of surveyed crown is followed by the making of RPD. However, making new denture takes a long time, and needs several processes and costs. Also, patients should get used to new denture. If other abutment teeth and edentulous ridges provide the existing denture with support, retention, and stability, use of existing denture is considered clinically acceptable. In this situation, fabricating retrofit crowns to an existing removable partial denture makes patient use existing denture, cuts costs, and reduces discomfort. In this case, severely worn teeth were restored using monolithic zirconia crown which fit to an existing removable partial denture by CAD-CAM. Moreover, support, retention, and stability of the denture were improved, and both doctor and patient were satisfied with the result.
