“…Despite the commonness of DCT during pregnancy [1], there are few cases reported of advanced thyroid carcinoma described in the literature [16][17][18]. To our knowledge, there is only one other reported case of a follicular carcinoma with metastatic lung disease and intra-cranial and bone metastases during pregnancy [16].…”

“…In this case, the patient presented with a differentiated follicular carcinoma and the diagnosis was made during pregnancy. Other cases of DTC with metastatic disease during pregnancy were papillary tumors [17,18]. In one of them, brain metastases from papillary carcinoma were diagnosed at 29 weeks of gestation [17].…”

Differentiated thyroid carcinoma is one of the most frequently diagnosed cancers during pregnancy, second only to breast cancer. Therefore, it would be of value to determine if there are pregnancy-related physiological effects that impact long-term prognosis for patients with this disease. Hormone effects attributable to β-human chorionic gonadotropin and estrogens seem particularly likely. We present a case of a 40-year-old woman with thyroid follicular carcinoma with accompanying bone metastases. The cancer was discovered immediately after childbirth and the woman became pregnant again when the disease was in an advanced stage. We describe the cancer evolution and present the maternal and fetal results. Pregnancy in women with advanced thyroid carcinoma could affect long-term prognosis. However, more studies are needed to evaluate this hypothesis. In this unique case, there were two pregnancies and the second occurred in an advanced state of the disease. We evaluated how these pregnancies could affect short-term prognosis of the disease.

“…2 Malignant tumors of the central nervous system (CNS) in pregnancy are rare and mostly diagnosed in the second trimester of pregnancy. 3 Pregnant women presented with intracranial pathology rarely encountered in clinical practice that requires neurosurgical intervention. Brain tumor during pregnancy occurs very rare with an estimated incidence of 15 per 100,000.…”

Introduction: The treatment of facial bone fractures dates back to ancient civilizations, with various methods of prosthetic immobilization developed and in the second half of the 19th and the beginning of the 20th century. In our literature, there are almost no studies that examined the quality of life of patients with facial bone fractures, although worldwide this is an extremely current topic indicating the importance of this problem. Methods: This paper will present results from professional/scientific relevant data sources on the historical development of maxillofacial surgery with reference to etiology, epidemiology and instruments for assessing the quality of life of patients with jaw bone fractures. Topic: Medical treatment of these surgical injuries involves a highly specialized team led by a maxillofacial surgeon. This paper deals with the etiology, epidemiology and quality of life of patients with facial bone fractures. Conclusion: Surgical interventions for fractures of the facial bones are becoming more and more demanding, resulting in development of maxillofacial surgery as an independent branch. In the etiology of facial bone fractures, traffic accidents are mentioned more and more often as the main way of injury. The incidence of facial bone fractures in human pathology is about 30 per 100,000 hospitalized patients. Research has shown that the quality of life in operated patients with fractures of the facial bones is significantly lower than those operated on some other region.
