BACKGROUND Granular cell tumor (GCT) is a benign soft tissue tumor of neural origin and is characterized by eosinophilic granular cells showing positivity for neuronal markers. Herein, we report the first case of primary intraosseous GCT arising in the maxilla of an adolescent girl. METHODS AND RESULTS A 16-year-old female patient presented with palatal swelling. Radiographic findings reveale...

intraosseous ganglia can affect the carpal bones of the hand and must be considered in the differential diagnosis of wrist pain. a 38-year-old female presented with a 14-month history of left wrist pain and a radiolucent cystic lesion was seen computed tomography (ct) scanning. characteristic radiographic findings of a cyst in association with a fine sclerotic rim was apparent. we report an unu...

The angiographic features of the left ventricle were examined in patients with idiopathic hypertrophic subaortic stenosis who had clinical and hemodynamic evidence of obstruction. Of 36 combined hemodynamic and angiographic studies considered to be technically satisfactory, 33 showed a characteristic combination of abnormalities. In the frontal projection in systole, a linear radiolucent area e...

Patients with stable slipped capital femoral epiphysis (SCFE) usually can ambulate at the time of diagnosis. Satisfactory results have been reported after percutaneous in situ pinning using a fracture table. The authors describe a technique to determine the skin-pin entry point for percutaneous pinning of the hip on a regular radiolucent operating table. The pin entry point determined by this m...

Radiolucent findings of coronary angiogram are believed to usually represent intracoronary thrombus, but in the present case, were atheromatous plaque with a large lipid core. A 62-year-old man who suffered from an inferior acute myocardial infarction was admitted to hospital 6 h after onset. The first cine angiograms showed TIMI-1 flow in the distal-portion of the right coronary artery, so thr...

Great attention has been given to the study of radiolucent periapical lesions to avert possible misdiagnosis of apical periodontitis associated with certain radiolucent non-endodontic lesions. However, there are a significant number of radiopaque lesions found in the periapical region, which could be equally relevant to endodontic practice. The diagnosis and management of these radiopaque/hyper...

Salivary gland related bone defects or Stafne bone defects are asymptomatic bone cavities in the mandible caused by impingement by the salivary glandular tissue. All the three major salivary glands are in approximation with the mandible and depressions with each can produce radiolucent defects on the surface of the mandible. These bone defects or depressions are categorized as anterior lingual ...

Vertical root fractures (VRFs) in teeth without endodontic treatment are relatively uncommon. The diagnosis is based on clinical and radiographic presentations. It might be difficult to detect VRFs in non-endodontically treated molars by conventional radiographs in certain situations because of the limitations of 2D images and many others factors such as the VRFs being in their early stages. Ro...

INTRODUCTION Intraosseous lipoma is an uncommon entity that presents almost exclusively as a solitary lesion. Multiple intraosseous lipomas are exceedingly rare with only a few cases being reported in the literature. CASE PRESENTATION We present a case of 43-year-old African American female who presented with left leg and left wrist pain. The initial radiographs revealed well-defined radioluc...

Purpose: The purpose of this research was to identify the most common and severe types pathologic diseases surrounding impacted mandibular third molars using radiographic imaging. Cases procedures: An analysis past patients who had extracted at Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery Cat D Hospital Gara Tajik Peshawar. Impacted molar lesions, patient age gender were used as study's outcome measures. C...
