introduction: coverage of bone grafts is very important in reconstructive surgery. in edentulous alveolar ridges this coverage is particularly important for supporting dental prostheses. here we present the case of a patient with a large deficient maxillary anterior region that was reconstructed with a bilateral palatal submucosal periosteal connective tissue flap: a soft tissue reserve for upp...

INTRODUCTION Soft tissue myoepithelial carcinoma and myoepithelioma are rare entities, part of myoepithelial tumors. They were incorporated into the World Health Organization classification of soft tissue tumors in 2002. Here we present an exceptional case of myoepithelial carcinoma and myoepithelioma association. To the best of our knowledge, such an association has never been reported in the ...

Introduction: The MRI based measurement of dynamic 3D deformation of soft tissue in-vivo is relevant to many areas of research such as cardiac biomechanics, the assessment of tumor motion and preoperative planning. Furthermore, when combined with inverse analysis, it enables the non-invasive determination of the mechanical properties of human soft tissue [1]. The current study uses SPAtial Modu...

  Sarcoidosis is a systemic disease that is characterized with noncaseating granulomatous nodules which present in multiple organs specially lungs (90%) .

Introduction: Fishbone is the most common foreign body found in the oropharynx. Conventionally patients with suspected fishbone in the throat would have mirror laryngoscopy followed by lateral soft tissue X-ray to look for the fishbone or observe impacts caused by the fishbone i.e. soft tissue swelling or air in upper esophagus. However, the most common site of fishbone impact is the suprahyoid...
