LOCAL TREATMENT OF INTERSTITIAL GINGIVITIS.

Treatment of lichen planus-induced desquamative gingivitis

Introduction: Lichen planus is a mucocutaneouse inflammatory disease. Its complications including the formation of ulcers, irritation and discomfort, and the possibility of malignancy. In previous studies, no definite treatment for desquamative gingivitis due to lichen planus has been reported and different treatments have different results.

Interstitial and Langerhans' dendritic cells in chronic periodontitis and gingivitis.

The aim of the present study was to compare quantitatively the distribution of dendritic cell subpopulations in chronic periodontitis and gingivitis. Fourteen biopsies from patients with chronic periodontitis and fifteen from patients with gingivitis were studied. An immunoperoxidase technique was used to quantify the number of Langerhans' cells (CD1a) and interstitial dendritic cells (factor X...

Local Hyperthermia with Interstitial Techniques1

The heating of deep visceral tumors with implanted electrodes and with self-regulating ferromagnetic thermoseeds was inves tigated. Clinical trials on six patients heated with implanted electrodes indicate that good local tumor control can be obtained by application of hyperthermia during a normal course of radio therapy. The heating method was found practical, and neither toxicity nor severe p...
