Olfactory ensheathing cell tumor.
Olfactory ensheathing cells (OECs) are found in the olfactory bulb and olfactory nasal mucosa. They resemble Schwann cells on light and electron microscopy, however, immunohistochemical staining can distinguish between the two. There are less than 30 cases of olfactory groove schwannomas reported in the literature while there is only one reported case of OEC tumor. We report an OEC tumor in a 4...
متن کاملRepair of Spinal Cord Injury by Co-Transplantation of embryonic Stem Cell-Derived Motor Neuron and Olfactory Ensheathing Cell
Background: The failure of regeneration after spinal cord injury (SCI) has been attributed to axonal demyelination and neuronal death. Cellular replacement and white matter regeneration are both necessary for SCI repair. In this study, we evaluated the co-transplantation of olfactory ensheathing cells (OEC) and embryonic stem (ES) cell-derived motor neurons (ESMN) on contused SCI. Methods: OEC...
متن کاملFurther evidence of olfactory ensheathing glia facilitating axonal regeneration after a complete spinal cord transection.
Spinal Wistar Hannover rats injected with olfactory ensheathing glia (OEG) have been shown to recover some bipedal stepping and climbing abilities. Given the intrinsic ability of the spinal cord to regain stepping with pharmacological agents or epidural stimulation after a complete mid-thoracic transection, we asked if functional recovery after OEG injections is due to changes in the caudal stu...
متن کاملpre-differentiated embryonic stem cell versus olfactory ensheathing cell for spinal cord regeneration after compressive injury in rat
background: transplantation approaches are interventions currently available to apply to the devastating problem of spinal cord injury (sci). olfactory ensheathing cell (oec) and embryonic stem cell (esc) are considered to be promising therapeutic strategies . in this study, we compared the potential use of oecs and neurally pre-differentiated escs in contusion spinal cord. methods: oecs were h...
متن کاملOlfactory Ensheathing Cell Tumor Arising from the Olfactory Mucosa
We report a rare case of olfactory ensheathing cell tumor. A female presented a large soft mass extending medially to the olfactory cleft and laterally to the middle meatus in the left nasal cavity. Imaging studies confirmed a cystic mass extending superiorly into the frontal lobe, indicating that the tumor arouse from the olfactory mucosa. A subtotal resection was achieved through an endoscopi...
