squamous cell carcinoma (scc) of the buccal mucosa accounts for 23% to 37% of all intraoral cancers, the prognosis is generally poor. we reported a case of local invasion of buccal squamous cell carcinoma. a 32-year-old man referred to the clinic with a chief complaint of swelling in the right cheek region that initiated from 6 months ago and rapidly grow from one month ago. history of the pati...

patients. in this disease the risk of many malignancies is increased, of which the most important is non- hodgkin lymphoma of the small intestine. other malignancies include adenocarcinoma of the small intestine and squamous cell carcinoma of the esophagus. to the best of our knowledge, thus far only one case of celiac disease associated with hypopharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma has been repo...

background: lung cancer ranks among the most common and most lethal malignancies worldwide. once vascular or lymphatic invasions occur, metastatic dissemination to distant sites is common. bone, liver, adrenals, and brain are the most frequent sites of the distant disease. in this study we present a case of squamous cell carcinoma of lung with metastasis of the left knee bursa.case presentation...

introduction: granular cell tumors (gcts) are rare and mostly benign soft tissue tumors. though they have been reported in all parts of body, they are generally located in the head and neck region, especially on the tongue. some malign forms exist, but these have been rarely reported. granular cell tumors have a neural origin and, in immunohistochemical evaluations, they express s-100 and neuro...

Background: The most frequently mutated tumor suppressor gene found in human cancer is p53. In a normal situation, p53 is activated upon the induction of DNA damage to either arrest the cell cycle or to induce apoptosis. However, when mutated, p53 is no longer able to properly accomplish these functions. The aim of this study was to investigate the expression of p53 gene in cases of skin cancer...
