Spindle cell neoplasms are defined as neoplasms that consist of spindle-shaped cells in the histopathology. Spindle cell neoplasms can affect the oral cavity. In the oral cavity, the origin of the spindle cell neoplasms may be traced to epithelial, mesenchymal and odontogenic components. This article aims to review the spindle cell neoplasms of the oral cavity with emphasis on histopathology.

this paper presents the results of a numerical study on the removal process of fluid particles under the influence of mixed convection in a horizontal channel with an open cavity. the bottom wall of the cavity is heated at a constant temperature (th), while the top wall is maintained at a relatively low temperature (tc). fluid with a uniform velocity (uo) and temperature (tc) is introduced into...

The effect of momentary pretreatment by 35% HEMA solution on the adaptation between dentin and resin material was investigated by measuring wall-to-wall polymerization contraction in a cylindrical dentin cavity. Five marketed bonding agents tested in this study exhibited improved marginal seal when the dentin cavity wall was pretreated by 35% HEMA for a few seconds with the exception of Pyrofi1...

Lymphomas of the oral cavity are a rare complication of advanced HIV/AIDS disease. The clinical appearance of these neoplasms includes masses or ulcerative lesions that involve the oral soft tissue and the jaw as the predominant manifestation. We report the case of a patient with AIDS who developed diffuse large B-cell non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma of the oral cavity during highly active antiretrovira...

AIMS To establish the normal range of diastolic and systolic left ventricular wall-to-cavity ratios. METHODS AND RESULTS Two hundred and sixty-two normal subjects (age 0-40 years), 15 children with valvar aortic stenosis and 11 childhood athletes were studied with M-mode echocardiography. Values of diastolic septum-to-cavity ratio and diastolic left ventricular wall-to-cavity ratio were not i...

Inhaled or chewed tobacco is equally addictive and harmful and used daily by over 1 billion people. In addition to increased rates of coronary artery disease, stroke, peripheral vascular disease, congestive heart failure, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and lung cancers, tobacco is the leading preventable cause of oral cavity squamous cell carcinoma. In addition to tobacco, consumption an...

UNLABELLED Osteolipoma affecting oral cavity is indeed rare. We hereby report a case of osteolipoma affecting buccal mucosa. A review of literature of osteolipoma of oral cavity, particularly on radiographic/imaging findings was done. Only 16 cases of Osteolipoma of oral cavity are reported in the literature. The radiographic findings of our case, i.e. multiple dense homogenous radio-opaque str...

This paper presents the results of a numerical study on the heat transfer performance and the removal process of fluid particles under the influence of magnetohydrodynamic mixed convection in a horizontal channel with an open cavity. The bottom wall of the cavity is heated at a constant temperature (Th) while the top wall of the channel is maintained at a relatively low temperature (Tc). Air wi...

Nitrate and nitrite are present in the human oral cavity. The main origin of these components is nitrate that is contained in leafy vegetables such as lettuce and spinach (Tamme et al., 2006). Ingested nitrate is absorbed into human body by the intestine, and part of the absorbed nitrate is secreted into the oral cavity as a component of saliva. In the oral cavity, nitrate is reduced to nitrite...
