Metrical Differential Diagnosis Based on Location. Differential Diagnosis among Various Cysts.

Metrical differential diagnosis based on location (Part 2). Differential diagnosis among various benign tumors.

An attempt was made to quantify the location of various oral lesions using panoramic radiographs of benign tumors (20 ameloblastomas, 5 myxomas, 26 odontomas, 10 cementomas and 4 osteomas). The metrical data (integers) were obtained from a conversion table and the abscissa values (to the first decimal place) were obtained from the centroid of each of the tumors. Differential diagnosis among the...

Unicystic Ameloblastoma: Differential Diagnosis and Treatment Planning

Unicystic ameloblastoma is a tumor of odontogenic origin. It is not a rare neoplasm and most often the lesion is asympthomatic. However, large lesions may cause painless swelling of the jaws. Here we report a case of unicystic ameloblastoma with pain, swelling of the posterior jaws along with teeth mobility. Samples of incisional biopsy of the lesion and also interaoperative frozen section were...

Unicystic Ameloblastoma as a Differential Diagnosis for Odontogenic Cysts

Unicystic ameloblastoma (UA) is a variant of the solid or multicystic ameloblastoma. Radiographically, though the unilocular appearance is common, it can produce multilocular lesions also. Histologically, the minimum criterion for diagnosing a lesion as UA is the demonstration of a single cystic sac lined by ameloblastomatous epithelium often only in focal areas with or without areas of intralu...

bIochEmIcal dIagnoSIS and dIffErEntIal dIagnoSIS

the characteristic Cushingoid appearance except in some patients with the ectopic ACTH syndrome, whereas patients with only subtle hypersecretion of cortisol may exhibit less obvious physical changes. In addition, some features found in patients with CS such as obesity, hypertension, mood changes, and menstrual irregularities are also common in the general population. In such cases the presence...
