Abstract Diffuse cranial vault hyperostosis is an uncommon finding and may present a diagnostic challenge in clinical and forensic practice. We report the case of a 53‐year‐old woman with a long‐standing history of epilepsy treated with phenytoin and sodium valproate who collapsed at home suddenly and died despite resuscitative efforts.

Periodontal and orthodontic management of impacted canines
Abstract The maxillary and mandibular canines are described by many clinicians as the “cornerstone” of the arch. When in their optimal position, they play a critical role in providing a well‐balanced occlusal scheme that contributes toward functional as well as neuromuscular stability, harmony, esthetics, and dentofacial balance.

Co‐Occurring Non‐Cardiac Congenital Anomalies Among Cases With Congenital Heart Defects
ABSTRACT Cases with congenital heart defects (CHD) often have other associated anomalies. The aim of this investigation was to assess the prevalence and the types of co‐occurring anomalies in CHD in a well‐defined population. The anomalies co‐occurring with CHD were ascertained in all live births, stillbirths and terminations of pregnancy for fetal ...
