cardiac rhabdomyomas are the most common primary cardiac tumors in children. these tumors are generally asymptomatic, although they may be associated with neonatal tuberous sclerosis complex. despite the fact that thyroid dysfunction rarely occurs in tuberous sclerosis, papillary adenomas (hamartomas) of the thyroid gland have been reported in a number of autopsies. herein, we present the case ...

background: contralateral axillary metastasis (cam) is a rare entity in patients with breast cancer which can occur during the primary breast cancer or its follow-up. different treatment modalities include surgery, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy, but there is no agreement on them. in our review, we found 12 series with available data, 82 patients with synchronous or metachronous contralateral a...

introduction: in the current study we evaluated the incremental value of lateral pelvic lymphoscintigraphy imaging of endometrial or cervical cancer patients who underwent sentinel node mapping. methods: operable endometrial and cervical cancer patients without clinical or paraclinical evidence of lymph node involvement were included in the study. the day before surgery the patients were sent ...

kawasaki disease (kd) is an inflammatory multiorgan disease of unknown etiology. the most dramatic organ involved is the heart. there were a few studies about cardiac involvement and sterile pyuria. this study guides to determine if sterile pyuria is associated with coronary artery aneurysm (caa) in kd patients and to consider it as a predicting factor for coronary artery involvement. forty sev...

introduction: breast cancer is the most common cancer and the second cause of death in women. it is essential to have the highest level of confidence in axillary staging assessment. many surgeons and pathologists believe that fewer lymph nodes are present in axillary dissection specimens of women treated by neoadjuvant chemotherapy. consequently, the purpose of this study was to compare the lym...

  Background and Objective: Oral cancer accounts for less than 3% of all cancers. Despite recent improvement in diagnostic and treatment methods, the overall survival of the disease is unfavorable. Several studies have been performed to assess factors influencing lymph node metastasis and prognosis. The aim of this study was to evaluate some clinical and pathological factors influencing lymph ...

One of the main challenges in wireless sensor network is energy problem and life cycle of nodes in networks. Several methods can be used for increasing life cycle of nodes. One of these methods is load balancing in nodes while transmitting data from source to destination. Directed diffusion algorithm is one of declared methods in wireless sensor networks which is data-oriented algorithm. Direct...
