“…Candida, Pseudomonas , Enterococci , and Staphylococci are the most common organisms identified in cases with intravenous catheter sepsis [ 6 ]. One of the rare causes of IE is a malignancy involving atypical sites such as Gingivobuccal Sulcus [ 7 ].…”

“…The risk of childhood IE in a large population-based cohort of CHD patients was 6.1/1000 from birth to 18 years of age, or 4.1 cases/10 000 person-years. In childhood, left-sided lesions, cyanotic CHD lesions, and defects in the endocardial cushion had been linked to an elevated risk of IE acquisition [ 7 ]. In children under three, the relative chance of having IE was significantly increased throughout the six months following cardiac surgery.…”

“…Infective endocarditis occurring at the narrow pulmonary end of a PDA is more prevalent in the second decade, and a moderate PDA presenting with heart failure is more common in the third decade. An untreated PDA can progress in developing pulmonary vascular disease, as reflected in Eisenmenger syndrome with shunt flow reversal, ventricular hypertrophy and congestive heart failure, lack of physical development, IE, aneurysmal dilatation of the ductus, and ductal calcification [ 7 ].…”

A congenital cardiac defect with an untreated left-to-right shunt is a risk factor for infective endocarditis (IE), particularly right-sided infective endocarditis, which has a distinct clinical presentation and outcomes in comparison to left-sided IE. With a prevalence of at least 2-4 per 1000 term births, patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) accounts for around 10% of all congenital cardiac diseases. Early diagnosis by transthoracic echocardiography and prompt antimicrobial therapy for IE are advised to minimize multiorgan failure and severe pulmonary embolism. Closure of large, hemodynamically significant PDA could have a minimal level of intervention, and it may be done cautiously and efficiently with either surgical or transcatheter procedures. The elimination or minimization of these malformations has been advised to remove or decrease the possibility of IE. We present a case of a 10 years old female who presented with a history of intermittent fevers over two weeks. Clinical examination revealed a PDA murmur. Transthoracic echocardiology (TTE) revealed a PDA with vegetation suggestive of IE. The patient was treated with antibiotics, and two weeks after the antibiotic therapy, a TTE showed resolution of the vegetation. Thereafter, the patient was advised to undergo surgical correction of the PDA. This case report highlights the importance of the association of IE with congenital heart disease.

“…Quarantine, whether mandatory or optional, may have detrimental effects on both the mother and the child, which may affect the infant's feeding and early growth. While there is no factual evidence on the long term /chronic effects of COVID-19 in pregnancy, both researchers and frontline health professionals/workers believe that more attention should be paid to the disease's long-term impact on pregnant patients and their infants [13][14].…”

There is no indication that covid-19 has a long-term effect on pregnancy, the mother's psychiatric condition, or the infant's developmental delay. Between May 1st and July 31st 2020, 72 pregnant patients with covid-19 took part in a study that took place in different locations. Since giving birth these woman patients engaged in three-month follow-up surveys. The data was collected from Covid-19 medical history, maternal reports, quarantine questionnaires, mother-baby feeding separation, and assessing the mothers psychiatric illnesses. While there is no conclusive evidence of vertical transmission of SARS-COV-2, in order to reduce the risk of infection, healthcare professionals and researchers must focus more on the mental health of pregnant women, infant feeding, and closeness to the parents. This will aid in the early development of the new born, reducing stress on the mother.

Key measurements involve respiratory function, adequate mouth opening, pain reduction, and quality of life.…”

India has one of the highest rates of mouth cancer in the world among which gingivobuccal cancer (GBC) is the most prevalent. A 45-year-old man was reported to the hospital on November 23rd, 2021, with symptoms of difficulties eating and swallowing meals and pain when executing facial movements for 6 months. Six months ago, the patient was diagnosed with well-differentiated squamous cell carcinoma of the upper right gingivobuccal sulcus after a series of tests, and he has now finished three cycles of neoadjuvant treatment. On December 1, 2021, a right hemi-mandibulectomy with ipsilateral modified radical neck dissection and pectoralis major myocutaneous flap repair was done. Key indicators include pulmonary function, appropriate mouth opening, discomfort alleviation, and wellbeing.The Oral Rehabilitation Program is beneficial, as evidenced by statistically significant improvements in exercise capacity and well-being. This case study represents a comprehensive rehab strategy for people who have had oral surgery.
