Advanced Ethmoid Sinus Adenocarcinoma Presenting as Temporary Exudative Retinal Detachment
We describe the case of a 70-year-old male patient with ethmoid sinus adenocarcinoma who developed an exudative retinal detachment (ERD) in the right eye as the first manifestation. Two weeks after presentation, total regression of the ERD was noted. Extensive investigations for local causes of ERD were unrewarding. Finally, we performed a computed tomography scanning of the head that revealed ...

متن کاملTooth in Ethmoid Sinus: A Case Report
Ectopic eruption of teeth occurs in a variety of locations. Commonly seen in palate and maxillary sinus, they have also been reported in nasal cavity, orbit, mandibular condyle, coronoid process, and facial skin.Here, we report a rare case of recurrent sinusitis caused by ectopic tooth in right ethmoid sinus and successful endoscopic removal of it. The symptoms of the patient disappeared after ...
متن کاملIncreased prevalence of K-ras oncogene mutations in lung adenocarcinoma.
Reported estimates of ras mutation prevalence in lung adenocarcinoma of 15-24% may be underestimates because of the insensitivity of the assays used. We have devised a rapid, non-radioactive assay for ras mutations, which detects 1 mutant allele/10(3) normal alleles and have used it to study DNA isolated from 53 lung tumor samples (including 28 adenocarcinomas) previously analyzed by PCR/allele...
متن کاملDetection of ras gene mutations in pancreatic juice and peripheral blood of patients with pancreatic adenocarcinoma.
Pancreatic adenocarcinomas are known to have a high incidence of K-ras gene mutations. Differential diagnosis of pancreatic cancer and chronic pancreatitis sometimes presents a clinical dilemma. We recently developed a highly sensitive and specific polymerase chain reaction capable of detecting 3-30 copies of mutant K-ras genes harboring codon 12 single base changes in the presence of 300,000 n...
