Inflammatory myfibroblastic tumor (IMT), also known as inflammatory pseudotumor is unusual, benign solid tumor. This tumor is commonly reported in the lungs but can be present in extrapulmonary sites as well. We present the case of a 7-year-old girl with IMT in an unusual location. The patient was admitted with abdominal pain, and ultrasound showed a solid mass in the abdomen. She was operated ...

It is currently thought that planets around solar-type stars form by the accumulation of solid matter entrained in a gaseous protoplanetary disk.Wemodel part of this process starting from small particles suspended in a gaseous disk, and ending up with most of the solid material aggregated into 1–10–km– sized planetesimals. The radial distribution of solid material circumnavigating a star in the...

Presence of thymus in the normal position as well as in the posterior mediastinum is an unusual phenomenon. We report here a case of posterior mediastinal mass in a 20-month old male child who presented with dysphagia and dry cough. Investigations revealed it to be a solid posterior mediastinal mass, suspected to be either lymphoma or a neuroblastoma. Excision of the mass followed by histopatho...

Leiomyoma of the ovary is relatively rare and its origin is still controversial. Here, we report 2 cases of ovarian leiomyoma. Case 1, a 59-year-old woman who complained of abdominal distention. Ultrasonography and computed tomography revealed a large solid mass in the lower abdomen. The mass was diagnosed as uterine myoma preoperatively, but it turned out to be a left ovarian tumor at laparoto...

Solid-pseudopapillary tumour of the pancreas is a rare benign or low-grade malignant epithelial tumour that occurs mainly in young females. Pathologic and imaging findings include a well-defined, encapsulated pancreatic mass with cystic and solid components with hemorrhage. We report a 23-year-old woman that presented with epigastric pain of long duration and epigastric mass on palpation. MDCT ...

The design of furnaces and boilers for solid fuels is supported increasingly by powerful softwares and ever faster computers. A round-robin over the most important CFD (computational fluid mechanics) models and softwares currently available shows, however, that numerical procedures for particle/turbulence interactions are not (yet) very advanced. Particle/fluid interphase slip is considered, bu...

it is known that pancreatic serous cystic tumors are uncommon pancreatic tumors. Grossly, they are more frequently microcystic or oligocystic [1]. The solid form is rarely described in literature. To our knowledge, only four cases of solid serous neoplasms have been described [2, 3, 4, 5] (Table 1). Herein, we present the fifth case of solid serous cystic neoplasm of the pancreas. She was a 59-...

Background and objectives: Carvacrol is one of the main pharmacologically active components of Thymus vulgaris essential oil which has shown several therapeutic effects. There are few works regarding the formulation of essential oils as oral solid dosage forms due to their liquid nature, stability and technical problems. The aim of this study was to combine the solid-d...

amebloblastoma as the most common epithelial odontogenic neoplasm may occur in two forms of central and peripheral. this report presents a case of a 41-year-old iranian female with a six-month complaint from a painless mass in the right posterior portion of the mandible. the case was diagnosed as an exophytic epulis-like peripheral component with characteristics of peripheral ameloblastoma and ...
