Nurses see something coming out of the baby’s face and found out what it was. They immediately undertook additional lip teeth and even an additional tongue moving in tandem with the one in her original mouth. According to the doctors, she also had an extra set of teeth a girl was born with two
Mouth due to a disease that has only been observed in 35 known cases since the year 1900. The condition is extremely rare, having only been seen 35 times in over 100 years when the anomaly was discovered during a scan performed during the mother’s third trimester. in the beginning, they considered several diagnoses at the beginning, including a cyst and
Underlying bone problem and teratoma that occurs when one twin absorbs another during development in the womb the baby was born in Charleston South Carolina and doctors discovered what they characterized as a duplicated oral cavity or second mouth when examined this contained an extra lip a set of six teeth and even a little tongue that moved in sync with the tongue in her main mouth at the time of birth
Despite the fact that the condition seemed safe, they decided to perform surgery to remove the extra function. The irregularity was discovered by doctors at week 28 of the pregnancy and they initially suspected it was a cyst or a tumor medical professionals in Charleston South Carolina determined that the 0.8-inch growth was actually an extra mouth when the little girl was delivered
According to the doctors who published their findings in the journal BMJ Case Reports, her second mouth was not connected to her main mouth and she was unable to breathe, eat and drink regularly, but they did point out that a clear liquid would occasionally come out, possible saliva and that a rough surface would form around it at other times when the small child was admitted into the
Hospital for serious surgery to have the extra organ removed during this procedure, her lower jaw, the lower jaw, had to be drilled down to remove excess bone supporting her teeth for the second mouth. The doctors noted that the child had developed a slight swelling of the right face at the surgical incision after surgery which they said was normal, a scan was performed and the
The results showed a fluid build-up according to the doctor’s examination, the fullness disappeared in a period of several months and she no longer needed treatment, they explained, after six months the wounds were completely healed and the patient was able to eat without any problems, despite the doctors noting that she was unable to pull her lower right lip down, which could indicate that the muscles had stopped in that area
Diprosipus, meaning two-faced in Greek, is an extremely rare disease that has been observed in chickens, sheep, cats, and other animals. Scientists think it was caused by the sonic hedgehog shhh gene that disrupts the construction of the skull during embryonic development The rare two-faced disorder Diprospace is one of the rarest of the rare
Craniofacial duplication, which is Greek for two phases, is an extremely rare genetic disorder. It is a birth defect that results in the duplication of some facial features. be replicated to varying degrees in milder cases a newborn may be born
With two noses and four eyes that are far apart, but in extreme conditions, a baby’s full face can be replicated in many cases. stillbirth and only a few hundred cases have been reported worldwide
The magazine Bmj Case Reports has released a comprehensive medical report on the girls’ situation, most notably the following text: During prenatal imaging, a right mandibular tumor was discovered in a girl who was being transformed to a medical clinic for evaluation. There was a one to two-centimeter lump along the right jaw and a physical examination revealed remnants of an oral cavity
Tooth-like tissue resembling the vermilion and vestigial tongue appeared to be innervated and move in sync with mouth movement. Examination of the jaw after birth revealed a soft tissue mass of the right mandibular body that was partially osseous and contained uninterrupted teeth, as confirmed by MRI and cat scans. Six months after birth she was sent to the operating room for a large-scale excision and reconstruction
She recovered quickly after surgery and was able to feed herself without problems. Skeletal duplication including duplication of stomatal structures or the presence of a prosperous is a rare condition that manifests itself in various ways. The associated syndrome should be excluded in case of suspected craniofacial duplication and adequate imaging should be performed to determine the extent to which the surrounding tissues are
Affected this information will eventually be used to guide surgical strategy. About 35 cases of diprosipus duplication of craniofacial structures have been described in the literature since 1900, making it one of the most uncommon conditions known to allow craniofacial duplication. in combination with other birth defects in a wide variety of symptoms ranging from complete
Facial duplication to partial duplication of facial components, usually the maxilla and oral cavity are the most affected areas when partial duplication occurs, in addition, cerebral involvement is possible, with pituitary duplication being the least severe type. Women are more likely than men to be affected by the disease, but the mechanisms influencing this demographic are still under investigation
Cleft lip and palate clippable field syndrome and the Pierre robin sequence are all common comorbidities associated with craniofacial duplication during the third trimester of pregnancy a right mandibular mass was seen on prenatal ultrasound leading to referral to another medical center the original differential diagnosis included a variety of conditions such as a congenital cyst or sinus teratoma fibrous dysplasia and foregut
Duplication among others there was no evidence of in-uteroterogenic exposure and there was no family history of facial deformities a white girl was born to a healthy mother at 40 weeks and four days after the birth of her daughter by peaceful spontaneous vaginal delivery there was no evidence for respiratory distress and there was no need to be concerned about the ingress of the masses
The Airways Upon inspection of the child, the right body of the mandible was found to have a fullness of one to two centimeters, with the tongue being moved to the left in the right oral commissure during the course of the examination. There was a small sinus tract with vermilion-appearing mucosa around it that it was one centimeter inferior and lateral to the commissure
The sinus tract was about 13 millimeters deep and was adjacent to the mandibular mass with no apparent contact and the oral cavity or other structures. the lower lip on the right side of the face except that the rest of the head and neck cheek was calm
After admission to the nursery, the patient showed no signs of respiratory distress and was able to consume sufficient food before being transferred to the general ward for discharge at two weeks of age. The baby appeared healthy and was feeding and gaining weight normally with no signs of oral incompetence according to the doctor who examined her when it was discovered that the
The external component of the mass periodically developed a rough surface at the skin level that drained a clear serous fluid that looked like saliva, the fluid, on the other hand, was not subjected to testing when the baby was feeding a small accessory tongue that appeared to protrude from the opening of the sinus tract and was observed to move synchronously with the oral tongue
When the patient was six months old, she was sent to the operating room for excision of the duplicated mandibular bone contours of the jaw and repair of the soft tissue defect using nearby tissue transfer, among other procedures, a plane between the unaffected soft tissue and the duplicate of the oral cavity was created using a combination of blunt and sharp dissection techniques. The mucosa and minor salivary glands associated with it were removed in
One piece and traced all the way to the jaw. The mucosal lining extended on the mandible and resembled the mucosa covering the arch of the lvlr in appearance and texture when it was pulled away from the mandible. The underlying bone showed six baby teeth facing the lower jaw. the duplicate oral cavity of the original patient it was decided to extract the accessory
Teeth and the cavities were drilled to form the jaw and remove any remaining tooth tissue. It was important to avoid removing tooth buds that were considered part of her natural lower jaw. to close the remaining soft tissue defect, a progress flap covering an area of approximately 83.3 square centimeters was used
After surgery, pathology revealed a benign squamous mucosa salivary gland cortical bone skeletal muscle and dental pulp with six benign molars removed during surgery, thanks for reading.
