    Abstract: The rationale: Sialoliths are calcified organic matter that form within the secretory system of the salivary glands. They rarely measure more than 1.5 cm. Giant sialoliths are rare and defined as a size of 3.5 cm or larger.: Patient concerns: Patient ...

    Abstract The rationale: Sialoliths are calcified organic matter that form within the secretory system of the salivary glands. They rarely measure more than 1.5 cm. Giant sialoliths are rare and defined as a size of 3.5 cm or larger.
    Patient concerns: Patient complained of the pain and swelling in the right submandibular area for two years with increase in size during meals.
    Diagnosis: Based on the clinical and radiological investigations.
    Treatment: Sialolith measuring 39 mm and weighing 7.02 g, was removed in a minimally invasive manner through transoral sialolithotomy using diode 810 µm LASER unit under local anaesthesia.
    Outcomes: Patient was relieved of the preoperative symptoms and was on follow-up for one year.
    Take-away lessons: Various newer treatment modalities are effective alternatives to conventional surgical treatment of sialoliths. However, transoral sialolithotomy remains the mainstay of management.

    Abstract Introduction: Attractive people do not seem to consistently possess such ideal characteristics or share common features. There is no general consensus about the linear and angular characteristics that discriminate between attractive and normal persons.
    Aim: This study determines how young Asian women considered to be attractive differ in their twodimensional facial characteristics from normal women of the same age and race.
    Materials and methods: Frontal and lateral photographs of 70 young Asian females were taken under standardized setting and were given to 15 judges who did not know the subjects in the study, to rate the attractiveness of each photograph. All 70 photographs were arranged in descending order of their total score by all the judges and were classified into three groups. Three angular, 8 linear measurements, and 3 ratios were compared between these groups.
    Results: This study showed that most attractive group had least convex face, larger forehead, and wider faces. Conversely, the middle facial height was larger in the least attractive group. The ratio of middle third to total face of the most attractive group is higher than the average attractive ones. The ratio of lower third to total face of the most attractive group is lower than the average attractive ones.
