The epithelial tissue is one of the four main types of tissue structures of the human body, along with muscle tissue, nerve tissue and connective tissue. Tissues are cellular organizations with similar specializations. In addition to the systematic structure, it is important for every physician not only for dermatologists to know the distribution and function of all types of epithelial tissue i...

marfan’s syndrome (mfs) is a genetic disorder associated with autosomal dominant inheritance. in mfs, the most prevalent cause of death is cardiovascular involvement. here we introduce a family with a severe penetration of mfs. eleven members of this family have mfs (father, two daughters, three sons, and five grandchildren). the most common cardiac involvement in our patients was mitral valve ...

soft tissue-implant interface is an important anatomical feature contributing to the long-term success of dental implants. based on the available evidence, different factors may influence biological width around implants including the surgical technique, implant loading, implant surface properties, abutment materials, implant position, and width of the peri-implant mucosa. the purpose of the pr...

BACKGROUND A cursory review of the current socket preservation literatures well depicts the necessity of further esthetic considerations through the corrective procedures of the alveolar ridge upon and post extraction. A new technique has been described here is a rotational pedicle combined epithelialized and connective tissue graft (RPC graft) adjunct with immediate guided tissue regeneration ...

The palatine tonsils provide the first line of immune defense against foreign pathogens inhaled or ingested. However, a disruption in epithelial layer within tonsil crypts can lead to recurrent acute tonsillitis (RAT). Current imaging techniques suffer from poor resolution and contrast do not allow classification severity RAT. We have developed cross-polarized optical coherence tomography syste...

BACKGROUND This article reports a clinical case with a 3-year follow-up in which a subepithelial connective tissue graft (SCTG) was used with the tunnel technique to treat multiple gingival recessions, and describes a technique used to enlarge the extension of the graft. METHODS A 41-year-old female patient was referred for evaluation and treatment of maxillary multiple recessions. Following ...

PURPOSE Various surgical techniques target achieving adequate keratinized tissue around dental implants; however, these techniques are usually performed before implant placement or upon the exposure of submerged implants. The aim of this case report is to describe a simultaneous placement of an interpositional free gingival graft (iFGG) with that of nonsubmerged implants in a patient lacking ke...

AIM To describe histologically the early phases of soft tissue healing to implants placed into fresh extraction sockets. MATERIALS AND METHODS In 16 beagle dogs, 64 3.25-mm-wide cylindrical screw implants were inserted into the distal sockets of the third and fourth lower premolars using a one-stage trans-mucosal healing protocol. Biopsies were then taken at 1, 2, 4 and 8 weeks and prepared f...

The current study was designed to identify the histological composition of ileum in Caucasian squirrel Sciurus anomalus. Ten adult squirrels were used for present study. Animals anesthetized, anatomized, fixed specimens 10% formalin solution, and conducted a series staining techniques. consists four main tunicae represented by mucosa, submucosa, muscularis, serosa. tunica mucosa three secondary...

Cancer can significantly have ruining effects on very high of human beings, social, and economic condition. Bladder cancer has been reported as one of the most common cancers and the incidence rates of this cancer is increasing across the world. Cystectomy is a surgery to remove the urinary bladder. In the present study a part of the ileum is used instead of bladder. This study deals with mucos...
