intraosseous squamous cell carcinoma is a rare type of squamous cell carcinoma that requires accurate and early diagnose which is important due to its invasive feature. this article presents a rare case report on intraosseous carcinoma in a 33-year-old patient. the case was a 33-year-old man who was referred to oral disease department of babol college of dentistry complaining of chin pain. in t...

We report a large vagal neurilemmoma in the poststyloid compartment of the parapharyngeal space. A 52-year-old man was referred to our hospital with a feeling of discomfort in the left upper neck. Computed tomography showed a 30mm x 30mm x 40mm mass with inhomogeneous internal enhancement in the left carotid space. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed a 30mm × 30mm × 40mm heterogeneous mass in t...

PURPOSE Receptor 7 (CXCR7) has recently been characterized as a novel receptor for CXCL12/SDF-1 (stromal cell derived factor-1). Given the demonstrated importance of CXCL12/SDF-1 in angiogenesis and tumour metastasis, we hypothesized that CXCR7 may also play a role in tumour pathogenesis. Located in the limited space of the intracranial cavity, any brain tumours can be inherently serious and li...

BACKGROUND Since bone marrow receives innervation from A-delta and C-fibers and since an increase in intramedullary pressure in bone marrow may induce acute pain in orthopedic patients during surgery and chronic pain in patients with bone marrow edema, skeletal pain may partly originate from bone marrow. Intraosseous lesions, such as osteomyelitis and bone cancer, are also known to produce cuta...

myofibroma is an uncommon benign mesenchymal neoplasm. solitary myofibroma is common in soft tissues of head and neck, but rare in the jaw bones. only a few sporadic cases of solitary myofibroma of mandible have been described. the aim of the present study was to present a clinical case of a patient with a myofibroma in mandible bone and its management. differentiating this lesion from other be...

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the contribution of ultrasonography in the diagnosis of neurilemmoma and to establish if a round or round-like shape adds useful information for ultrasonographic diagnosis. METHODS Archives of ultrasound findings in 203 patients (127 males and 76 females, aged 14 -72 years old, mean 32.1 +/- 25.8) with limb mass were reviewed. The maximal and minimal diameter of the lesi...

•A large cervical neurilemmoma-like leiomyoma can simulate a retroperitoneal tumor.•They are extremely rare tumors that require adequate bleeding control.•Comprehensive anatomo-pathological study should be done to rule out malignancy.

Intraosseous ganglia are benign cystic lesions located in the subchondral bone. Intraosseous ganglion cysts of the ankle are relatively uncommon. We present a case of recurrent intraosseous ganglion in the ankle of a 41-year-old female who had recurrence after initial surgery. She was treated effectively by curettage and autogenous cancellous bone grafting. At the final follow-up, satisfactory ...

BACKGROUND Fibrinogen concentrate is increasingly considered as a hemostatic agent for trauma patients experiencing bleeding. Placing a venous access is sometimes challenging during severe hemorrhage. Intraosseous access may be considered instead. Studies of intraosseous infusion of coagulation factor concentrates are limited. We investigated in vivo recovery following intraosseous administrati...
