Abstract A 7-year-old boy presented with a 4-week history of pain and swelling the right leg. He had mucoepidermoid carcinoma parotid gland, treated by surgical resection without any complication. There was no other significant past medical history. radiograph leg showed lytic lesion diaphysis fibula periosteal reaction. An MRI osteoid osteoma marked cortical thickening osseous soft tissue oede...

background: in vitro model studies are becoming increasingly popular for experimental research designs. they include isolation and expansion of cells of a particular tissue, such as the nervous tissue which contributes to understanding the underlying mechanisms in many pathologies. it enables  the scrutinization of intracellular signaling pathways responsible for cell death. objectives: in the ...

cortical spreading depression (csd) has been suggested to underlie some neurological disorders such as migraine. despite the intensity with which many investigators have studied sd in the brain, only a few studies have aimed to identify sd in the spinal cord. here we described the main characteristic features of sd in the spinal cord induced by different methods including various spinal cord in...

abstract seizure disorders are the most common neurological illnesses in infants and children. presented is an 8 year old boy with nocturnal vomiting episodes, found to have eeg characteristics of early onset benign occipital epilepsy, better known as panayiotopoulos syndrome.

introdouction: cone-beam computed tomography (cbct) scanning is a technological innovation developed in recent years with potential use in oral surgery and many other dental procedures. the aim of this study is to determine the maxillary sinus mucosal thickening in the maxillary premolar-molar area using the cbct technique. materials and methods: in this retrospective study, a total of 105 case...

background: this study is the first research investigating the possible effect of pulsed power signals on the characteristics of cortical bone by comparing the mechanical properties of this type of bone pre and post expose to pulsed power. methods: a positive buck-boost converter was applied to generate adjustable high voltage, high frequency pulses (up to 500 v and 10 khz). the functional beha...

OBJECTIVES To systematize the clinico-radiological symptoms and course of bisphosphonate-related osteonecrosis of jaw bone and toevaluate the diagnostic potential of various radiological techniques to detect mild osteonecrosis in each stage of the disease. MATERIAL AND METHODS The sample consisted of 22 patients previously diagnosed with extraoral malignant disease. Diagnosis was based on a c...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Type 2 FCD is one of the main causes of drug-resistant partial epilepsy. Its detection by MR imaging has greatly improved surgical outcomes, but it often remains overlooked. Our objective was to determine the prevalence of typical MR imaging criteria for type 2 FCD, to provide a precise MR imaging pattern, and to optimize its detection. MATERIALS AND METHODS We retrospe...
