There was no history of a foreign body in the nose at any time before. Anterior rhinoscopy showed a rough dark stony mass covered with greenish discharge. Probing gave a metallic sound. Postnasal examination showed a greenish discharge. A clinical diagnosis of a rhinolith was made. Radiology showed the rhinolith's position (Fig. 1) in the floor of the right nostril with mucosal thickening of th...

Pachyonychia congenita comprises a heterogeneous group of autosomal dominantly inherited conditions manifesting with characteristic nail thickening, palmoplantar keratoderma, follicular keratosis and oral manifestations like mucosal leukokeratosis. Less frequently epidermal cysts, hair-shaft abnormalities, natal teeth and laryngeal involvement may be seen. It is distributed almost evenly throug...

A 32-year-old homosexual male presented with suprapubic pain. Computed tomography showed rectal wall thickening. Flexible sigmoidoscopy showed small pockets of pus that were opened with mucosal biopsies, and additional pus was diffusely expressed from the rectal wall by applying blunt pressure with the biopsy forceps. Cultures from the pus grew Prevotella bivia. Symptoms resolved after treatmen...

Abstract
 Background: Cone beam computer tomography (CBCT) when imaged for maxillary jaw generally depicts sinus. This region is frequently neglected by dentist and maxillofacial radiologist. Signs symptoms in odontogenic diseases of the sinus may overlap each other. A dental surgeon primarily encounters these lesions routine radiographs..
 Aim: The present study was undetaken to eval...

mal thickness of 41.1 μm, whereas sites treated with vehicle alone measured an average of 22.6 μm, indicating a significant difference in epidermal thickness between aTd-treated groups and vehicle controls, Po0.001 (Mann– Whitney test, Figure 1e and f). In summary, we have demonstrated in vivo capabilities of aTds to initiate protect and repair response in non-UVexposed guinea pig skin. By mimi...

Amyloidosis refers to the accumulation of amyloid fibrils in different organs body that may result dysfunction organ systems. Cardiac amyloidosis (CA) is an cardiac tissue leads increase thickness and mass ventricular wall inducing progressive restrictive infiltrative cardiomyopathy. We present here a case 62-year-old male with complaints shortness breath on exertion, abdominal distention, leg ...

patients with mitochondrial encephalopathy, lactic acidosis and stroke-like episodes (melas) present with recurrent and partially reversible neurological deficits. lesions of melas classically cause a signal change in both the grey and white matter, predominantly in the occipital and parietal lobes. these lesions mimic infarction. here, we reported a case of melas with rare neuroimaging finding...

OBJECTIVES An aberrant sinus anatomy or pathology can influence the sinus lift technique if it is encountered during surgical exposure. The purpose of the present study was to determine the prevalence of sinus disease and variations of normal anatomy among edentulous patients prior to sinus augmentation. MATERIAL AND METHODS 120 patients attending a private surgical practice (53 women and 67 ...
