Objective- The present study was aimed to evaluate repair of a critical segmental defect of rabbit femur using the rabbit’s femoral defects repaired by Zeolite and Zeolite/Collagen scaffolds Design- Experimental Study Animals- Forty-five mature male New Zealand white rabbits Procedures- The animals were randomly divided into three groups of 15 animals each. In the first group...

Background: Granulomatous dermatoses are common skin pathology, often need histopathological confirmation for diagnosis. Histologically six sub-types of granulomas found in granulomatous skin diseases- tuberculoid, sarcoidal, necrobiotic, suppurative, foreign body & histoid type. The aims of the present study were clinico-pathological evaluation of granulomatous skin l...

BACKGROUND/AIM Filling a bone defect with bone substitution materials is a therapy of choice, but the infiltration of connective tissue from the mucoperiostal flap may compromise a healing of bone substitutions with bony wall defects. Application of membrane as a barrier is indicated as a solution to this problem. The aim of this study was to show a pathohistological view of bone regeneration a...

Introduction: Abnormal uterine bleeding is most common gynecological presentation in pre and postmenopausal women caused by benign and malignant lesions and infections. Histopathological examination is the gold standard in diagnosing exact cause of this bleeding. Objectives: 1) To detect pattern of endometrium in women having abnormal uterine bleeding in pre and postmenopausal age group. 2) To ...

Contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI) can occur in 3-25% of patients receiving radiocontrast material (RCM) despite appropriate preventive measures. Often patients with an atherosclerotic vasculature have to receive large doses of RCM. Thus, animal studies to uncover the exact pathomechanism of CI-AKI are needed. Sensitive and specific histologic end-points are lacking; thus in the pres...

The idea behind this paper [1] is novel and daring. Firstly, there are no previous papers looking into the actual necessity of pathological examination after removing a part of the urinary tract. And secondly, there are many possible implications after changing something that is widely considered as elementary and routine. The conclusion that might be drawn from this paper is that if you are on...

Objective: To evaluate diagnostic performance of fine needle aspiration cytology[FNAC] in diagnosis of benign breast lesions. Methods: Women who had FNAC diagnosis of benign breast lesion were followed up with histopathological evaluation to assess the diagnostic accuracy of FNAC. Results: Out of sixty benign cases diagnosed on FNAC, fifty eight cases were benign and one case each of mastitis a...

We aimed to evaluate the subcutaneous tissue reaction to a newly-developed MgO Sealer for root canals. We injected the experimental material and three existing control materials into the dorsal area of 43 male ddY mice. One week and 12 weeks after embedding, the tissue surrounding the embedding sites was removed and histopathological examination was performed. The results demonstrate that the b...

BACKGROUND There is limited data on comparing stains in the detection of microsporidia in corneal biopsies. Hence we wanted to evaluate various stains for their ability to detect microsporidia in corneal tissue sections. METHODS Four cases diagnosed with microsporidiosis on Hematoxylin and Eosin and Periodic Acid Schiff's stained sections of the corneal button between January 2002 and Decembe...

PURPOSE To determine the percentage of tumoral necrosis and volume after cyanogenic chemotherapy. METHODS Histopathological findings of 20 Swiss mice inoculated subcutaneously in the left abdominal wall with 0.05 ml of cell suspension containing 2.5 x 10(5) viable cells of the Ehrlich tumor were evaluated. The tumor response to cyanogenic chemotherapy was determined using a system that compri...
