UNLABELLED INTRODUCTION Behçet's disease commonly presents with recurrent oral and genital mucocutaneous ulcerations, uveitis and various skin manifestations. Other clinical symptoms include gastrointestinal ulcerations, arthritis, venous thrombosis, arterial aneurysms and central nervous system affection. Vasculitis underlies most clinical symptoms of Behçet's disease. CASE PRESENTATION W...

Distant soft tissue tumor metastasis isolated in the digit, presenting as a primary esophageal squamous cell carcinoma is considered extremely rare. Herein, we present a rare case of a 44-year-old male patient with squamous cell carcinoma of the esophagus associated with the clinical symptoms of progressive dysphagia and hoarseness in the course of 2 days. During the second course of chemothera...

The problem of roadway support in swelling soft rock was one of the challenging problems during mining. For most geological conditions, combinations of two or more supporting approaches could meet the requirements of most roadways; however, in extremely swelling soft rock, combined approaches even could not control large deformations. The purpose of this work was to probe the roadway deformatio...

A 58-year old patient on dialysis for four years due to chronic renal failure presented with complaints of painless, continuously growing swelling on the left of his back and coughing, symptoms evolving over a period of approximately 3 months. Physical examination revealed a soft fixed mass of 10 x 10 x 4 cm on the left infrascapular area on the chest wall. The sample taken from the inflammatio...

a case of soft tissue defect of dorsal hand due to crush injury in a 37-year-old female is reported here. the reconstructive surgery was performed for the hand soft-tissue defect. among different flaps used in the surgery, the regional flap such as radial forearm flap can be done. but usually it is not accepted by patient because of cosmetic appearance. therefore, random pattern abdominal flap ...

nowadays, one of the main problems encountered in minimally invasive surgery and telesurgery is the detection of arteries in tissue. in this study, for the first time, tactile detection of an artery in tissue and distinguishing it from the tumor has been modeled by finite element method. in this modeling, three 2d models of tissue have been created: tissue, tissue including a tumor, and tissue ...

normal 0 false false false en-us x-none ar-sa background: robotic needle insertion in biological tissues has been known as one the most applicable procedures in sampling, robotic injection and different medical therapies and operations. objective: in this paper, we would like to investigate the effects of angular velocity in soft tissue insertion procedure by considering force-displacement diag...

conclusion our preliminary results have shown that although there is some overlap between benign and malignant tumors, adding dwi, mr imaging to routine soft tissue tumor protocols may improve diagnostic accuracy. results there was only one patient with a malignant cystic tumor and was not included in the statistical analysis. the median adc values of benign and malignant tumors were 2.31 ± 1.2...

in this paper, the focus is on a new kind of biodegradable semi-interpenetrating polymer networks, which derived from ɛ-caprolactone, lactide, 1,4-butane diisocyanate and ethylenediamine and also its potential has been investigated in soft tissue engineering applications. the polymers were characterized by nuclear magnetic resonance (nmr) spectrometry, fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (f...

purpose : to present a case of missed intraorbital wooden foreign body presented as soft tissue mass case report : we introduce a case of intraorbital wooden foreign body which presented with orbital soft tissue mass two years after trauma. a plain ct was requested which revealed a foreign body in the right orbit.conclusion : it is frequently difficult to identify and localize organic intraorbi...
