Cardiac masses are rare entities categorized as either neoplastic or non-neoplastic. We present a case of cardiac mass from the inferior vena cava (IVC) extending to right atrium, ventricle and pulmonary artery that was diagnosed by computed tomography (CT), transthoracic echocardiography (TTE), cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging. Differential diagnosis atrial includes myxoma, thro...

Immunotherapy has been used for years in many types of cancer therapy. Recently, cancer immunotherapy has focused on mechanisms which can enhance the development of cell-mediated immunity. Anticancer medications are administered to inhibit immunosuppressive factors such as nagalase enzyme, which is produced by neoplastic cells and destroys macrophage activating factor (Gc-MAF). Anti-neoplastics...

The authors describe a case of histiocyte-rich B-cell lymphoma (HR-BCL), a variant of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, in a 51-year-old man. The patient presented with large axillary lymphadenopathy. Histopathologic and immunohistochemical examination of lymph node biopsy revealed diffuse effacement of the lymph node architecture by reactive histiocytes and neoplastic CD20 positive B cells. ...

The histiocytoses are a group of proliferative disorders of themonocyte-macrophage lineage that are neoplastic or reactive innature. Based on immunophenotyping and electron microscopy,two main groups have been recognized namely 1) Langerhanscell histiocytosis (LCH) and 2) non- Langerhans cell histiocytosis(non-LCH). In this study, a fairly rare disease of the non-LCHgroup, generalized eruptive ...

Lymphadenopathy is most commonly encountered problems in clinical practice. Various etiological factors can cause lymphadenopathy. Cytomorphological study of lymphadenopathy a window for diagnosis many disease processes. Aspiration cytology provides reliable, safe, rapid and economical method screening the patients with accuracy. It differentiate neoplastic from non-neoplastic lesions therefore...

Introduction: As a result of aging process, oral mucosa becomes susceptible to oral diseases. Having knowledge about prevalence and distribution of geriatric oral diseases is essential for prevention and treatment planning. This study aimed to evaluate the prevalence of geriatric patients’ oral biopsies in specimens obtained in medical centers of Zahedan University of Medical Sciences. Methods:...

Testicular tumors are relatively rare and comprise 1% of all male cancers worldwide with peak prevalence in the age group 15-35 years. lesions have a varied histomorphological spectrum largely categorized as non-neoplastic neoplastic lesions. To study incidence testicular lesions, to including well determine age-wise distribution, laterality clinical presentation The present is an observational...

central giant cell granuloma (cgcg), formerly called giant cell reparative granuloma, is a non-neoplastic proliferative lesion of unknown etiology. it occurs most commonly in the mandible. the case reported here resembled a wide variety of conditions that led to a misdiagnosis both on clinical and radiographic examinations but was histopathologically diagnosed as cgcg. we describe a case of cgc...
