Dermoid Cyst

a Mahomedan male patient, about 50 yeais ol age, who came from the village of Kalupura in the district of Backergatij, to be rid of a large swelling which lie ''ad earned aboot on the right side of liis head, according to him tor the best part of M years. There was nothing of special interest in the past history of the case except a rather vague account of some injury to the head, received when...

Infected mesenteric ileocaecal dermoid cyst in a child

Mesenteric dermoid cysts are a rare cause of abdominal pain. Although dermoid cysts occur in many parts of the body there have been only a few case reports involving the bowel mesentery. We present a case of a symptomatic mesenteric dermoid cyst involving the ileocaecal junction in a child.

Electrolytes of breast-cyst fluid.

We constructed an electrolyte balance sheet for 11 individual specimens and two pooled specimens of breast-cyst fluid. Na+ and K+ ranged in concentrations from those representative of extracellular fluids (147 and 9 mmol/L, respectively) to those of intracellular fluid or a high K+ secretion (23 and 168 mmol/L, respectively). Cl- concentrations ranged from 9 to 98 mmol/L (mean, 31), bicarbonate...

Fluid level dependent Markov fluid models with continuous zero transition

Markov fluid models with fluid level dependent behaviour are considered in this paper. One of the main difficulties of the analysis of these models is to handle the case when in a given state the fluid rate changes sign from positive to negative at a given fluid level. We refer to this case as zero transition. The case when this sign change is due to a discontinuity of the fluid rate function r...
