Abstract	The socket-shield technique is considered one of the best treatment modalities that reduce the amount of facial bone loss and gingival recession following tooth extraction. However, the difficulty in preparing the shield by partial tooth extraction makes it technique-sensitive and limits its use. This case report presents a 29-year-old medically fit male patient with a destructed non-vital lateral incisor. It was planned for immediate implant placement in conjunction with the socket-shield technique. The shield was prepared in a new technique using a nickel-titanium endodontic file, which was repeatedly adjusted to increase the diameter of the canal gradually. The canal was enlarged to reach a sufficient diameter to perform root separation safely. Following the shield preparation, immediate implant placement was preformed, and screw-retained temporary crown was done.

Abstract	Colorectal cancer ranks third in cancer incidence in the United States, commonly metastasizing to the liver and lungs. Despite its high prevalence, colorectal cancer with intraocular metastasis is exceedingly rare, with only a few cases reported in the literature. This study presents a 58-year-old male, previously treated for rectal adenocarcinoma with liver and lung metastases, who developed choroidal metastasis causing visual impairment. Despite radiotherapy, moderate improvement was observed, and subsequent disease progression led to systemic chemotherapy. Intraocular metastasis, primarily affecting the choroid, is infrequent, often originating from breast and lung cancers. The presented case, originating from primary KRAS wild-type rectal cancer, adds to the limited gastrointestinal-tract-related occurrences. This report underscores the importance of recognizing intraocular metastasis in colorectal cancer, contributing valuable insights for improved understanding and potential guidance for future clinical decisions. Choroidal metastasis carries a poor prognosis, emphasizing the need for tailored management strategies.

Article: A late presentation of inguinoscrotal cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (cSCC) masquerading as hidradenitis suppurativa-a case report.

Abstract	Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is a chronic inflammatory skin condition that affects apocrine gland-bearing skin in intertriginous areas; it is characterized by persistent or recurrent abscesses that culminate in a purulent discharge, sinuses and scarring. Although it is a common condition, it is rarely associated with cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (cSCC). Whereas the female-to-male ratio of HS is 3:1, SCC in HS has a female-to-male ratio of 1:5. In this study, we present a 50-year-old male patient with a late presentation of inguinoscrotal cSCC with extensive ulceration and erythema that was hidden by neglected HS and the presence of underlying human papillomavirus in the affected area. The histomorphologic and immunohistochemical findings support the diagnosis of cSCC. Timely detection is the key to improve prognosis, regular clinical examination and biopsy of any suspicious lesions in high-risk patients is highly recommended.

Abstract	The incidence rate of abdominal wall necrotizing fasciitis (NF) is low; however, it carries a high mortality rate. It can arise as a complication of a strangulated hernia, where a part of the intestine becomes trapped and deprived of its blood supply. Rarely, this can result in abdominal wall fasciitis, which carries a grim prognosis. Timely debridement, however, has been shown to yield improved outcomes. Here, we report our experience with a 53-y-old morbidly obese patient who presented with colicky abdominal pain lasting for 1 week, progressively worsening and becoming constant. She also exhibited symptoms of fever, constipation, vomiting and anorexia. Furthermore, there was an infected wound measuring 20 cm × 13 cm along the midline of the abdomen. Imaging studies revealed indications of small bowel obstruction. This case describes a unique presentation of strangulated incisional hernia complicated by NF of the anterior abdominal wall, successfully managed with surgery.

Abstract	Primary Central Nervous System Lymphoma (PCNSL) is a rare, aggressive extranodal non-Hodgkin lymphoma. It is critical to get a diagnosis and start therapy as soon as possible to improve clinical results. Despite a new medicinal strategy that has increased survivability, the survival rate is still quite low. This report presents a new case of PCNSL that appears in an immunocompetent patient with two different rare genetic rearrangements and a necrotic histological appearance.

Abstract	Epiploic appendagitis (EA) is an uncommon condition caused by infarction of epiploic appendages "small fat outpouchings present on the outside of the colon wall" because of torsion or thrombosis of the main draining vein. It is sometimes misdiagnosed as diverticulitis or appendicitis. Lab tests usually are normal, and the diagnosis is mainly by computerized tomography (CT) scan. Treatment is conservative as it is a self-limited condition, and the symptoms will resolve spontaneously within 2 weeks. However, surgical appendage removal could be necessary if symptoms increase or continue. Here, we report our experience with a 21-year-old male patient, who presented with a 1-day duration of localized right lower quadrant (RLQ) abdominal pain within 18*10 cm incisional hernia, imaging revealed signs of epiploic appendages infarction within the huge incisional hernia. This case describes an atypical scenario for EA, which was successfully managed with surgery. The final pathology report confirms the diagnosis.

Abstract	Quarantine conditions arising as a result of the coronavirus (COVID-19) have had a significant impact on global production-rates and supply chains. This has coincided with increased demands for medical and personal protective equipment such as face shields. Shortages have been particularly prevalent in western countries which typically rely upon global supply chains to obtain these types of device from low-cost economies. National calls for the repurposing of domestic mass-production facilities have the potential to meet medical requirements in coming weeks, however the immediate demand associated with the virus has led to the mobilisation of a diverse distributed workforce. Selection of appropriate manufacturing processes and underused supply chains is paramount to the success of these operations. A simplified medical face shield design is presented which repurposes an assortment of existing alternative supply chains. The device is easy to produce with minimal equipment and training. It is hoped that the methodology and approach presented is of use to the wider community at this critical time.
