Iris pigment epithelial (IPE) cysts are a subset of iris cysts that arise from the IPE. They are spontaneously erupting epithelial-lined cavities that are found in various anatomic locations of the iris, including the iris pupillary margin, midzone, periphery, and free floating in the vitreous or anterior chamber. We report the case of an asymptomatic 13-year-old boy with an incidental finding of a dislodged anterior chamber cyst diagnosed on routine examination. Modern multimodal image analysis of the cyst including anterior segment optical coherence tomography and ultrasound biomicroscopy (UBM) was utilized to characterize the microstructural anatomy of the lesion. The patient was managed conservatively without complications. Cysts of the IPE typically do not affect vision or ocular health and can be monitored and observed after ascertaining no associated malignancy. Initial diagnostic investigation can include UBM and anterior segment optical coherence tomography. Intervention should be reserved only for cases where the cyst growth leads to obstruction of the visual axis and/or other secondary complications.
The purpose of this article was to present a case report of 11–year old female patient with a large osteolytic mandibular lesion which healed after
endodontic treatment. The patient was referred for radio diagnostics due to an incidental finding of a large osteolytic lesion of the area of the left
lower first and second premolars in the panoramic radiograph taken before orthodontic treatment. CBCT was performed and the patient asked to
have teeth 33-35 treated by endodontics before surgery. The patient missed the surgical appointment and when she reappeared several months later,
the lesion showed signs of healing thus surgery were aborted. The presented case testifies to the observation that even large osteolytic lesions can
heal after endodontic treatment without surgical approach.
