Candidiasis
Caused by Candida albicans, a diploid fungus that grows as yeast and lamentous cell. Infection usually in immunocompromised patients but can be indicative of systemic or localized immune compromise (steroid inhalers). Most common oppor­tunistic infection of oral cavity, oropharynx, oral commissures, isolated laryngeal involvement with inhaled steroid use, associated with failure of tracheoesophageal puncture voice prosthesis

8 Systemic, Infectious, andInammatory Diseases
https://t.me/medicina_free
• Treatment: supportive care, avoid contact sports, antibiotics for secondary bacte­rial infection though avoid ampicillin/amoxicillin—causes maculopapular rash in patients with IM.
• Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC): not all patients with EBV develop NPC.IgA antibodies to viral capsid antigen (VCA) and nuclear core early antigen most specic tests for diagnosis, titers ~85% positive in cases of WHO II and III NPC.Antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC) titers: can be used to predict prognosis of WHO II and III NPC, signicant relationship between lower titers and progression—lower titers correlate with poorer prognosis.
• Burkitt’s lymphoma: non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma, high incidence in children in equatorial Africa and Brazil, Burkitt’s accounts for 50% of these, associated with EBV.Translocation of myc gene on chromosome 8 to chromosome 14.

• Causative agent in primary herpetic gingivostomatitis, pharyngitis, laryngitis, sensorineural hearing loss, herpes labialis (cold sore—indication of reactivation, not primary infection), and oral ulcerations. In oral ulcerations, high concentra­tion of virus present in ulcers in rst few days, small round ulcers without ery­thematous halo, multinucleated giant cells seen in a Tzanck smear
• Treatment: initiate as soon as symptomatic, topical or oral acyclovir
Varicella-Zoster Virus (VZV)
Human herpes virus 3, member of Herpesviridae family. Initial infection results in “chicken pox”; virus lies dormant in sensory ganglia; reactivation presents with dermatomal distribution (“shingles”).
• Symptoms: in head and neck region, reactivation causes unilateral painful vesicles on skin or in oral cavity, distributed in ophthalmic, maxillary, or mandibular divi­sions of trigeminal sensory nerves. If ear involved (herpes-zoster oticus), vesicles in canal and conchal bowl, virus thought to be harbored in geniculate ganglion and spreads along sensory bers of CN VII.Can result in blindness (V1 distribution), facial paralysis/paresis (Ramsay Hunt syndrome), vertigo, and hearing loss
132
https://t.me/medicina_free
• Treatment: antivirals (i.e., acyclovir, valacyclovir), analgesia, high-dose steroids for sensorineural hearing loss and facial paralysis
A. M. Roche and Z. M. Patel

while preserving normal structures. Modalities include CO2 laser, KTP laser; microlaryngoscopy with cold knife or microdebrider; cryosurgery
– Adjuvant therapy: 20% of patients will require some form; criteria include >4
surgeries/year, distal multisite spread of disease, rapid regrowth with airway compromise.

Osteodystrophies
Fibrous Dysplasia
Genetically based developmental anomaly, defect in osteoblastic differentiation, replacement of normal medullary bone by brous tissue and immature woven bone. Presents <age 30, lesions present as painless enlarging bony swelling. Twenty-ve percent occurs in head and neck, mainly maxilla
• Three clinical presentations
– Monostotic (80%), most commonly in ribs and femur – Polyostotic (17%) – Disseminated (McCune-Albright syndrome) (3%): polyostotic disease associ-
ated with triad of hyperpigmentation, precocious puberty, and endocrinopathy
• Histology: not encapsulated (versus ossifying broma, which has a capsule), immature bone without osteoblastic activity
• Symptoms: sinonasal obstruction and associated pain; if compressing optic nerve, diplopia, aesthetic deformity
• Workup: computed tomography—ndings depend on density of mineralization— in early disease higher density of brous tissue, appears radiolucent or lytic, similar to bone cyst. As disease progresses, ground-glass appearance. MR imaging— hypointense on T1, variable ndings T2, nonhomogeneous after gadolinium
• Treatment (only for cosmetic deformity, or impingement of critical structures causing pain or functional decit): surgical debulking, curettage, and excision. Medical management with bisphosphonates (pamidronate, zoledronate) to inhibit osteoclastic activity. Radiotherapy contraindicated due to possible malig­nant conversion
Ossifying Fibroma
Benign neoplasm. Occurs in third to fourth decade, more common in black females, psammomatoid variant occurs in men at younger age, more aggressive
• Histology: encapsulated, variant with small ossicles in stroma that appear like psammoma bodies
• Symptoms: space occupying lesion in nasal cavity, temporal bone
• Workup: endoscopic exam—lesion covered by intact mucosa. Computed tomog­raphy—well-dened, multiloculated lesion, bordered by egg-shell-like rim. MR imaging—hyperintense on T2; on T1 central portion intermediately to hyperin­tense central portion with hypointense outer portion
• Treatment: surgical radical resection due to high rate of aggressive recurrence with local destructive potential. Radiotherapy contraindicated due to possible malignant conversion

Paget’s Disease
Osteitis deformans, idiopathic chronic and at times progressive disease of bone, osteolytic, and osteoblastic changes that affect axial skeleton. Autosomal dominant pattern with high penetrance, associated with mutations in gene-encoding sequesto­some 1, possibly related to viral infection. Age of onset >40, polyostotic most com­mon, occurs in the lumbar spine, head and neck; skull and maxilla often involved
• Three phases of disease
– Osteolytic phase – Mixed or combined phase – Osteoblastic “burnout” phase
• If temporal bone involvement—remodeling of inactive irregular bone into nor­mal appearing lamellar bone
• Symptoms: enlarging head, kyphosis. If inner ear and/or internal auditory canal involved, tinnitus, mixed hearing loss (50%) vestibular dysfunction. Facial nerve spared. Spacing and mobility of teeth if maxilla involved
• Histology: osteoclastic resorption, increased vascularity and formation of brous tissue, mosaic pattern of new bone formation
• Workup/diagnosis: elevated serum alkaline phosphatase, thickened skull table, lytic lesions in calvarium
• Treatment: calcitonin, bisphosphonates (inhibit osteoclasts)
