Tolosa- Hunt syndrome is a rare steroid responsive disorder caused by granulation tissue involving the cavernous sinus or superior orbital fissure presenting as painful ophthalmoplegia and facial pain. In this report, we describe coexistence of Tolosa-Hunt syndrome with ocular myasthenia which may point towards an autoimmune etiological basis behind the cavernous sinus granulation tissue format...

Rhinoscleroma is a chronic inflammatory disease in which granulation tissue with a typical cell content is found. The paper presents the case of a 77-year-old woman with clinically diagnosed nodule in the nasal cavity. The histopathological examination revealed granulation tissue with plasma cells and Mikulicz's cells. The clinical and morphological picture of the case in question is a rare opp...

Tracheal stenosis is a known complication of prolonged intubation. It is difficult to treat and traditional surgical approach is associated with significant risk and complications. Recurrent stenosis due to granulation tissue necessitates repeated procedures. We describe a case of short web-like tracheal stenosis (concentric membranous stenosis less than 1 cm in length without associated cartil...

PURPOSE In early clinical testing, most novel targeted anticancer therapies have limited toxicities and limited efficacy, which complicates dose and schedule selection for these agents. Confirmation of target inhibition is critical for rational drug development; however, repeated tumor biopsies are often impractical and peripheral blood mononuclear cells and normal skin are often inadequate sur...

BACKGROUND In the extremities of premature infants, the skin and subcutaneous tissue are very pliable due to immaturity and have a greater degree of skin laxity and mobility. Thus, we can expect wounds to heal rapidly by wound contraction. This study investigates wound healing of full-thickness defects in premature infant extremities. METHODS The study consisted of 13 premature infants who ha...

Ulcer healing process is an intricate and active process including reconstruction process of mucosa through formation of granulation tissue. Granulation tissue formation takes place by means of formation of ulcer base, formation of blood vessel (angiogenesis) and re-establishment of glandular architecture. The process of granulation tissue formation on the ulcer base takes place 48-72 hours aft...
