discussion: the histopathological examination showed increased number of acini with preserved duct-acinar connection, consistent with nodular hyperplasia. the patient had used oral contraceptive pill for four years. introduction: tumors which originate from the bartholin’s glands (bgs) are very rare. many solid masses that arise from the bgs are carcinoma, though these benign solid lesions are ...

OBJECTIVE: To report a case of pleomorphic adenoma that was surgically removed and to describe the surgical technique available remove this lesion. CASE REPORT: A male patient, caucasian, 46 years old, with 4-year history adenoma. He mentioned he went other services for treatment, but without success. came at our service treatment tumoral excision. Local anesthesia performed mepivacaine vasocon...

Lactating female rats without their pups exhibit lower HPA responsiveness to stress than nonlactating females. However, responsiveness to stress is similar when lactating females are tested with their pups and the stressor involves a potential threat to the offspring. This study constitutes the first comparison of stress responsiveness in lactating and nonlactating female nonhuman primates. Sub...

the coexistence of medullary thyroid carcinoma (mtc), papillary thyroid carcinoma (ptc) and parathyroid adenoma is an uncommon clinical entity. here, we report a case of mtc, ptc, and parathyroid adenoma diagnosed incidentally on a routine physical examination of the neck for the work-up of diabetes. the patient had neither symptoms of hypercalcemia nor those related to mtc and ptc.

A number of reproductive parameters are altered in lactating dairy cows including: twinning rate, expression of estrus, conception rate, pregnancy loss, and incidence of anovulation. We hypothesized that the high feed consumption associated with lactation has fundamentally altered reproductive physiology due to increased metabolism of steroids. We evaluated liver blood flow and steroid metaboli...

It is very difficult to differentiate follicular adenoma from follicular carcinoma in thyroid follicular lesions. The authors investigated the biological behavior of these thyroid follicular lesions using immunohistochemical techniques. Specimens taken from normal thyroid, 2 cases; follicular adenoma, 9; atypical adenoma, 7; and follicular carcinoma, 8; were observed. Proliferating cell nuclear...

Introduction: Pleomorphic adenomas are benign neoplasms of salivary glands. The simultaneous homolateral occurrence of these tumors in salivary glands is exceedingly rare.   Case Report: An adult female presenting to our OPD with the swelling of right-sided preauricular and submandibular regions was diagnosed with the pleomorphic adenoma based on fine needle aspiration c...

Background and Importance: The coexistence of pituitary adenoma and another type of brain tumor is a very rare clinical scenario. Even though such a presentation can be an incidental event but the possible pathogenesis of coexistence of different lesions in the sella and suprasellar region has not yet been elucidated. Case Presentation: Two cases of concomitant sellar and suprasellar region ...

Primary hyperparathyroidism (pHPT) is defined by the excess level of parathyroid hormone (PTH). Parathyroid adenoma is responsible for about 80% of all pHPT. Parathyroid adenoma with cystic feature and atypical pathology is recognized as a rare entity. Technetium-99m methoxy isobutyl isonitrile ([99mTc]Tc-MIBI) scintigraphy has favorable detection rate for ectopic gland as well as th...
