Participant in the process of normal bone remodeling is vitamin D, which, addition, has antiinflammatory (anti-cytokine), anti-proliferative and anti-tumor effects. Objective study to assess level 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 concentration blood serum before start treatment patients with benign, primary malignant metastatic tumors, taking into account polymorbidity. Materials methods. The following wer...

Background: Skin adnexal tumors are a spectrum of benign and malignant that differentiate toward or arise from the unit skin. These rare pose challenge in diagnosis, often, discrepancy is seen between clinical histopathological diagnosis. Materials methods: This single institutional study was carried out among 36 patients who presented with swelling. An initial diagnosis considered based on his...

Odontogenic tumors contain a heterogeneous collection of lesions that are categorized from hamartomas to benign and malignant neoplasms of inconstant aggressiveness. Odontogenic tumors are usually extraordinary with assessed frequency of short of 0.5 cases/100,000 population for every year. The lesions such as odontogenic tumors are inferred from the components of the tooth-structuring contrapt...

This study investigates whether and to what extent cyclooxygenase type-2 (COX-2) and inducible nitric oxide-synthase (iNOS), both known to have an immunosuppressive effect, are expressed in human ovarian tumors. Because COX-2 and iNOS can be expressed by activated macrophages, the presence of tumor-associated macrophages and the expression of COX-2 and iNOS by these tumor-associated macrophages...

BACKGROUND Primary chest wall tumor is rare but it encompasses tumors of various origins. We analyzed our experience with primary chest wall tumors with emphasis on its demographic presentation and management. METHODS From 1991 to 2004, 62 patients with the diagnosis of primary chest wall tumors were enrolled. Lipoma, chest wall metastasis, direct invasion from nearby malignancy, infection, a...

Gastric subepithelial tumors (SETs) are often discovered incidentally and usually benign. Their location complicates accurate diagnosis; however, most lesions can be differentiated using either endoscopy or endoscopic ultrasonography. SETs location, color, surface change, size, consistency, movability evaluated during endoscopy. Endoscopic ultrasound assesses their originating layer, echogenici...

Odontogenic tumors, derived from epithelial, ectomesenchymal, and/or mesenchymal elements of the tooth-forming apparatus, constitute a heterogeneous group lesions, including hamartomas, benign and malignant neoplasms with metastatic capabilities. This review provides comprehensive overview molecular events in pathogenesis odontogenic tumors. The reasonable better understanding components may pr...

PURPOSE This study aimed to evaluate the diagnostic value of SonoLiver software for parametric imaging in breast tumors. METHODS Contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) was performed in 216 breast lesions (113 malignant, 103 benign). The CEUS parameters were compared between benign and malignant lesions. The rise time, the time to peak, the mean transit time and dynamic vessel pattern (DVP) were ...
