Physiological FDG uptake in the palatine tonsils.
In clinical F-18 fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography (PET) studies of the head and neck region, remarkable symmetric tonsillar FDG uptake is sometimes observed. We determined the incidence and degree of tonsillar FDG uptake and investigated the significance of tonsillar FDG uptake. Between June 1998 and August 1998, we obtained informed consent from 17 patients who were schedu...
متن کاملHidden Sepsis in the Palatine Tonsils
we get indications of its location and nature. We spend much of our time in looking for foci of infection, and their discovery and eradication often bring most gratifying results; conversely, overlooked foci produce many of the tragic and irreparable conditions that we frequently see in general practice. I refer to advanced cases of arthritis, cardiovascular disease, and patients with general d...
متن کاملMicrovascular organization of human palatine tonsils.
We describe the three-dimensional organization of the microvasculature of human palatine tonsils as revealed by the vascular corrosion casting/scanning electron microscope method and light microscopy of sections. The tonsillar arteries travel in the connective tissue septa and give off many branches. They further branch into arterioles which in turn enter the follicle and the interfollicular re...
متن کاملBilateral Multiple Lymphoepithelial Cysts of Palatine Tonsils
Lymphoepithelial cyst of oral cavity is a rare cystic lesion that presents as an asymptomatic submucosal mass and is usually discovered during routine dental examinations. The site most commonly affected is floor of the mouth and tonsillar involvement seems to be very rare. Multiple Lymphoepithelial cysts have been reported in parotid of HIV positive patients however in oral cavity they usua...
متن کاملInfluence of Radiofrequency Surgery on Architecture of the Palatine Tonsils
Radiofrequency surgery is a widely used modern technique for submucosal volume reduction of the tonsils. So far there is very limited information on morphologic changes in the human tonsils after radiofrequency surgery. We performed histopathological study of tonsillectomy specimens after previous bipolar radiofrequency induced thermotherapy (RFITT). A total of 83 patients underwent bipolar RFI...
