Function After Injection of Benign Bone Lesions with a Bioceramic

Bone lesions: benign and malignant.

Extended Curettage for Benign Bone Lesions

Benign bone lesions present a unique challenge to the practicing orthopaedist. They are a not uncommon problem that often present in the pediatric or young adult population. The most common diagnoses include giant cell tumor of bone, aneurysmal bone cysts, unicameral (simple) bone cysts, metaphyseal fibrous defects, and fibrous dysplasia. Appropriate surgical intervention must balance acceptabl...

Postoperative complications after extracapsular dissection of benign parotid lesions with particular reference to facial nerve function.

OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS The desirable extent of surgical intervention for benign parotid tumors remains a matter of controversy. Superficial or total parotidectomy as a standard procedure is often said to be the gold standard; however, with it the risk of intraoperative damage to the facial nerve cannot be ignored. For some time now, extracapsular dissection without exposure of the main trunk of ...

Studying the specificity of bone SPECT for differentiating malignant from benign lesions in the vertebral column of the patients with a known primary malignancy [Persian]

  Metastatic survey of the patients with known primary malignancies with bone scan is one of the most common studies in nuclear medicine. Unfortunately the conventional planar bone scan has a very low specificity for differentiating benign from malignant lesions especially in the spinal column. In this study, we compared the specificity of SPECT imaging and convention...

Benign Fibrous Tumors and Tumorous Lesions of the Bone

-Abstract=We report here 6 cases with classical forms of nonossifying fibroma (NOF) and 1 case of fibrous cortical defect (FCD) which occurred in the metaphysis of the long bones of children along with 2 cases of fibrous histiocytoma (FH) which occurred in the veretebra and femur neck of adults. Their clinical data, radiographs, histopathology, and ultrasturctural features are described. Throug...
