in an attempt to determine the diagnostic value of fna biopsy of head and neck masses, we reviewed fnas performed on target lesions of the head and neck in1 59 patients who subsequently underwent surgery in khalili hospital dur-. ing a 55 month period. results offnas were compared with postsurgical histologic diagnoses. these 159 cases were broken down into four categories: thyroid masses 34 , ...

case description- a 2-yr-old intact male donkey (equus asinus) was presented to hospital of veterinary medicine, mansoura university with subcutaneous masses under the tail. clinical findings- physical examination revealed the presence of 2 separate 5x10 and 5x8-cm-diameter, round and firm subcutaneous masses. treatment and outcome- surgical removal of the masses applied under epidural anesthes...

We discuss first the flavor mixing of the quarks, using the texture zero mass matrices. Then we study a similar model for the mass matrices of the leptons. We are able to relate the mass eigenvalues of the charged leptons and of the neutrinos to the mixing angles and can predict the masses of the neutrinos. We find a normal hierarchy the masses are 0.004 eV, 0.01 eV and 0.05 eV. The atmospheric...

an 11 year – old mixed female labrador was presented with two masses in trunk and neck. the tumoral masses were excised and sent for histopathological and immunohistochemical analyses. histopathological examination of masses revealed diffuse infiltration of small sized lymphoid cells in subcutaneous tissue which were intense around the blood vessels. more than 10% lymphoid cells were cd3 positi...

The theory of map generalization is discussed with particular reference to the processes of simplification and classification. Both of these processes are used extensively in computer-assisted cartography; however, a comprehensive, flexible software package has not yet been organized from the myriad of algorithms available. Further, systematic use of algorithms, based on the reasons for general...

It is reported the Brazilian Neurology birth (1912), that has as the hallmark its first Neurology Cathedra of Rio de Janeiro, and the links between Neurology and Psychiatry, besides the main medical protagonists at that time in Rio de Janeiro: João Carlos Teixeira Brandão (1854-1921), first professor of the cathedra of Clinical Psychiatry and Nervous Diseases (1883-1921); Juliano Moreira (1873-...
