[Nonfunctioning adrenocortical carcinoma revealed by metastasis to the base of the tongue].

A 60-year-old man visited our clinic with the complaint of a tumor of the tongue base. Clinical and histological examination revealed that the tumor was metastasis from left adrenal carcinoma. Metastatic lesions were present in the tongue base, cervical lymph node and lung. There were no endocrinological abnormalities in the laboratory examination. The patient died about three months after admission. The autopsy disclosed nonfunctioning carcinoma of the adrenal cortex. Ninety-two cases of nonfunctioning adrenocortical carcinoma in Japan including the present patient are briefly reviewed.

Interradicular dentin dysplasia associated with amelogenesis imperfecta.

Very few reports are available on the occurrence of dysplasia of both enamel and dentin. This report concerns a rare association of amelogenesis imperfecta with a dysplasia of dentin in the interradicular area in sisters of Japanese descent who have no other morphologic anomalies. Retarded tooth eruption was also a clinical feature in both sisters. Histologic examination of several teeth revealed that the anomalous interradicular dentin consisted of a mass of small, onion-like calcified bodies. The absence of any dental abnormalities in both parents, who are related as first cousins, supports the concept of autosomal recessive inheritance for this trait.
