Sarcomas are malignant tumors arising from skeletal and non-skeletal connective tissue, as well the peripheral nervous system. Sarcoma is detected in majority of patients who have a primary retroperitoneal, extra-visceral, unifocal soft tissue mass. Liposarcoma leiomyosarcoma most prevalent histologic types retroperitoneal sarcoma adults. Most liposarcomas known low to mild grade tumors. Well d...

  Extra-skeletal Ewing’s sarcoma is a rare soft tissue malignant neoplasm, morphologically indistinguishable from skeletal Ewing’s sarcoma. The usual sites of involvement are the soft tissues of para-vertebral region, chest wall, and lower extremity. Extra-skeletal Ewing’s sarcoma is rare in the head and neck region and very few cases are reported in the parotid gland. The cytological features...

The physiological consequences of the activation of the immune system in skeletal muscle in fish are not completely understood. To study the consequences of the activation of the immune system by bacterial pathogens on skeletal muscle function, we administered lipopolysaccharide (LPS), an active component of Gram-negative bacteria, in rainbow trout and performed transcriptomic and proteomic ana...

objectives: the gals (gait, arms, legs and spine) examination is a compact version of standard procedures used by rheumatologists to determine musculoskeletal disorders in patients. computerization of such a clinical procedure is necessary to ensure an objective evaluation. this article presents the first steps in such an approach by outlining a procedure to use motion analysis techniques as a ...

metastasis of gastroesphageal junction (gej) adenocarcinoma in skeletal muscle is rare and primary sites for skeletal muscle metastases are usually lung, renal and colorectal cancer. we have encountered with the first case report of solitary psoas muscle metastasis of gej adenocarcinoma. here we describe a 65 years old man was diagnosed with gej adenocarcinoma in tertiary hospital, tehran, iran...

Integration of muscle, connective tissue and skeletal patterning during development is essential for proper functioning of the musculoskeletal system. How this integration is achieved is poorly understood. There is ample evidence suggesting that skeletal pattern is programmed autonomously, whereas muscle pattern is, for the most part, programmed non-cell-autonomously. Connective tissues depend ...

context hamstring acute muscle injuries are prevalent in several sports including afl football (australian football league), sprinting and soccer, and are often associated with prolonged time away from sport. evidence acquisition in response to this, research into prevention and management of hamstring injury has increased, but epidemiological data shows no decline in injury and re-injury rates...
