Primary cardiac tumors in infancy and childhood are rare and usually benign. Fibroma is the second most common bening cardiac tumor after rhabdomyoma. Surgery is required when fibromas cause ventricular outflow tract obstruction, ventricular dysfunction and life-threatening arrhythmia. This case report describes a 9-year-old asymptomatic male presenting with a giant left ventricular cardiac fib...

Cardiac fibroma is a rare primary tumor of the heart. Patients can be asymptomatic or present with palpitations, cardiac murmur, syncope, arrhythmias, symptoms of congestive heart failure, or sudden death. We report a case of successful surgical excision of a giant cardiac fibroma in an asymptomatic child. Eur Res J 2018;4(1):52-54

BACKGROUND The purpose of this work was to perform a systematic review regarding ossifying fibroma and its multiple variants of the paranasal sinuses, and to identify any clinical differences between the multiple variants. METHODS A search of the U.S. National Library of Medicine (PubMed) database was performed for the non–Medical Subject Heading (MeSH) search term “ossifying fibroma.” The bi...

Intra-osseous fibromas of the jaw are classified by origin. Intra-osseous odontogenic fibromas have odontogenic epithelia, while desmoplastic fibromas do not. However, it is often difficult to determine the odontogenic origin for central fibromas. Three subjects with a diagnosis of intra-osseous fibroma were examined. Case 1 was a 35-year-old man found to have a panoramic radiograph from the ri...

UNLABELLED INTRODUCTION Nonossifying fibroma is a common fibrous bone lesion in children that occurs in the metaphysis of the long bones of the lower extremities. The lesion rarely leads to aneurysmal bone cyst, which is characterized as a blood-filled space. CASE PRESENTATION We present the case of a 13-year-old Japanese boy with a complaint of discomfort in the thigh and a small, well-de...

Shope fibroma virus establishes a persistent cytoplasmic infection in primary (RK) and serially cultivated (DRK(3)) rabbit kidney cells which is accompanied by a morphological alteration of the cells. The response of such cells to superinfection by other viruses was compared with that of control cells by determining plaque production and virus yield of superinfecting viruses. It was found that ...

Chondromyxoid fibroma; a rarely found tumor, contributing <1% of all primary bone neoplasm. We reported 4-year female child with 1-year history nasal obstruction and facial swelling. Large enhanced lesion amorphous densities spreading into the right cribriform plate floor sphenoid sinus, laterallyinto lamina papyracea, inferolaterally medial wall maxillary posteriorly nasopharynx superior as...

With the decline of ovarian hormonal function, from the fifth decade of life, women enter the menopause transition, during which bleeding becomes irregular in duration and time of occurrence. Secondary to ovarian dysfunction, developmental and maturation endometrial anomalies occur, which are clinically translated by abnormal uterine bleeding, which in many cases at this age can be caused by or...

The present case is of peripheral ossifying fibroma in the mandibular anterior gingiva of a 30 year old female. The lesion was asymptomatic, reddish, firm and penduclated. The lesion was surgically excised and at follow up of 1 year showed no recurrence. Histological assesment showed connective tissue stroma with osseous like calcification. Suggestive of peripheral ossifying fibroma.
