Its occurrence is rare in the oral cavity; however, inside the oral cavity most common site is anterior two-thirds on the dorsum of the tongue, presenting as macroglossia. Macroglossia compromises the airway, often leads to obstructive sleep apnea, malocclusion, and speech and mastication difficulty. The main objective of tongue LM treatment is to preserve the taste sensation, restoration of the tongue size for articulation and cosmesis. We report a rare case of transient intermittent macroglossia due to LM. The patient presented with painful swelling of the tongue, relative macroglossia. There was spontaneous regression of LM with antibiotics and corticosteroids. LM can grow suddenly due to infection or hemorrhage and can shrink spontaneously. Upon treatment of the infection, there is spontaneous regression, total or partial. Therefore, expectant management should be considered in the treatment of tongue LM, to preserve the functions of tongue.","PeriodicalId":145303,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Infectious Diseases & Case Reports","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130341640","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Methods: An observational case series of four cases of ocular tuberculosis. Detail history, thorough ocular and systemic examination, Fundus fluorescein angiography, B-scan untrasonography ; Optical Coherence tomography scan, Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate, Skin test for tubercle protein, histopathological examination of biopsy from lesion were performed according to the cases. Diagnosis was made by clinical history, ocular findings, appropriate ancillary tests and laboratory investigations according to the merit of the diseases. Response to anti tuberculous therapy (ATT) were observed which gave an anchor to the diagnosis. Results: Among four cases of ocular tuberculosis ,three were female last case was male and all of them were at or under the age of fourty. Two patients had extra ocular manifestation; one was tuberculous dacryoadenitis & other was tuberculous dacryocystitis. Two patients had eyeball involvement; one was tuberculous necrotizing scleritis, another one had tubercular vasculitis retinae. Out of four three had unilateral involvement. Three of them respond well to anti TB & anti inflammatory therapies; one respond to anti TB therapy only. Conclusions: Tuberculosis can affect any structure of eye and adnexae.The diagnosis is difficult because of diversity of presentation and most of the time there is absent of concurrent systemic infection. Early diagnosis and treatment can prevent blindness or severe ocular morbidity. In cases of non healing lesion and atypical inflammatory presentation, we stress the need for a high index of suspicion regarding tuberculosis.","PeriodicalId":145303,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Infectious Diseases & Case Reports","volume":"33 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-03-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128374352","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The WHO later announced that a novel coronavirus had been detected in samples taken from these patients. Since then, the epidemic has escalated and rapidly spread around the world, with the WHO first declaring a public health emergency of international concern on 30 January 2020, and then formally declaring it a pandemic on 11 March 2020. The condition has been given the official name of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) [2,3]. The disease is characterized by fever, dry cough, chest pain with pneumonia and Death in severe cases. Several clinical trials are under process for the development of effective vaccination and novel drug therapies. Therefore, in this review, we provide recent information about the novel coronavirus (COVID-19 formerly known as 2019 nCoV) caused by SARS-CoV-2, its Taxonomy, Epidemiology, pathogenesis, Diagnosis and Treatment options along with a brief review of the management of mild to critically ill patients. In this Review Article, We also included a special note on Artificial Intelligence (AI) which is emerging as a lifesaver in our fight against COVID-19.
