Abstract: Background: Ellis–Van-Creveld syndrome (EVC), otherwise known as chondroectodermal dysplasia. EVC presents several skeletal manifestations and congenital heart malformations. EVC syndrome consists of a tetrad of principal features: chondroectodermal dysplasia, polydactyly, congenital heart defects, and hypoplastic nails and teeth. In this syndrome alteration in the mechanical proper...

AbstractEpidermal inclusion cysts are uncommon in the breast, but the consequences can besevere when these cysts occur in the breast parenchyma. Here, we report two suchcases. The patient in case 1 was an 37-year-old woman with a 3-cm palpable mass inthe right breast. Mammography revealed a round and smoothly outlined mass, whichindicated a benign tumor, and sonography showed an irregularly sha...

OBJECTIVE To assess pulmonary function and the prevalence of atopy in school-age children who were very low birth weight as infants and to compare those who had bronchopulmonary dysplasia to those who did not. METHOD We studied 85 (39 male and 46 female) at a mean age of 84 (range, 62 to 107) months who were very low birth weight infants. Bronchopulmonary dysplasia was defined as oxygen depen...

Nowadays, with the changing climatic conditions due to global warming, seasonal estrus cycle in cats has reached point where it can spread almost throughout year. This situation brought many problems it. Mammary tumors and mammary gland hyperplasia are most common cases mammarytissue, which occur as a result of medical interventions for reproductive control. In this review, information about et...

717 ibrous dysplasia is a developmental anomaly that can affect any bone in the body. The skull and facial bones are the affected sites in 10–25% of patients with monostotic fibrous dysplasia and in 50% of patients with polyostotic fibrous dysplasia. Conventional radiographic findings reveal characteristics of fibrous dysplasia. CT findings also show characteristics of fibrous dysplasia and con...

Background & Objective: Most colorectal cancers (CRCs) arise from adenomatous polyps, and clinical management of this type of polyp is highly dependent on the reliability and validity of the pathological diagnosis. The aim of this study was to examine the interobserver agreement of five pathologists in assessing dysplasia in adenomatous polyps. Methods: I...

Congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) is a group of hereditary diseases, which are autosomal recessive. CAH occurs due to defect in one of the cortisol coding genes and often clinically presents itself with signs of androgen overproduction. In this article, we report a case of CAH and Schmid metaphyseal dysplasia. Our literature review indicated that this report is the first attempt on CYP11B1 a...

Fibrous dysplasia is a benign bone disease first described by Lichtenstein in 1938. It is characterized by progressive replacement of normal bone with fibro-osseous connective tissue. When the disease involves craniofacial skeleton, it results in significant disfigurement and other functional problems. This paper reports a case of large craniofacial fibrous dysplasia involving zygomaticomaxilla...

Animal models of colitis, which develop dysplasia and cancer similar to human ulcerative colitis are needed to further investigate the dysplasia cancer sequence. This study describes the expression of B-catenin and p53 along with the histopathology and inflammation scores as they relate to dysplasia and cancer in the dextran sulfate sodium (DSS) colitis model. Swiss Webster mice were fed with 5...

Numerous tools and techniques such as vital stain, autofluorescence, exfoliative cytology, histomorphometry, etc. were explored in the detection of dysplasia, but have variable sensitivity specificity. The present study evaluated effect toluidine blue increasing accuracy histomorphometry analysis dysplasia OPMDs on cytology. An experimental, observational, cross-sectional research was performed...
