ectopic thyroid tissue results from abnormal embryologic development and migration of the thyroid gland. true malignant transformation in ectopic thyroid tissue is extremely rare and is always diagnosed after surgical excision of the lesion by pathology examinations. there are well-documented cases of ectopic thyroid cancer while primary tumoral lesion occurs in the orthotopic thyroid, but only...

Introduction: Gestational trophoblastic disease (GTD) includes hydatiform mole, choriocarcinoma, placental site tumor, and epithelial tumor. Also, molar pregnancy can happen as an ectopic pregnancy. The coincidence of these complicated pregnancies seems to occur extremely rarely. Case presentation: Here, we presented a 26-year-old woman, nulli gravida with the first presentation intrauterine co...

This case series describes an alternative approach for removing ectopically erupted tooth in the maxillary sinus using improved endoscopic known as modified endoscopic-assisted surgery (MESS). We reviewed medical charts and radiographs of patients who underwent surgical removal ectopic MESS. The technique consisted creating a bony window wall with pre-adapted microplate, which was repositioned ...

The development of a baby is quite an intricate journey. From the moment that the egg and sperm meet, a baby is beginning the developmental process. This early part of development lays the foundation for a healthy pregnancy and the birth of a healthy baby. Ultrasounds can be used to visually monitor the development taking place in the uterus and to measure the progress. In the present study, 10...

In order to clarify the peripheral mechanisms of ectopic persistent pain in a tooth pulp following pulpal inflammation of an adjacent tooth, masseter muscle activity, phosphorylated extracellular signal-regulated protein kinase (pERK) and TRPV1 immunohistochemistries and satellite cell activation using glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) immunohistochemistry in the trigeminal ganglion (TG) w...

placental site trophoblastic tumor (pstt) is a very rare variant of gestational trophoblastic tumor. it can occur after normal termination of pregnancy or spontaneous abortion and ectopic or molar pregnancy. there is a wide range of clinical manifestations from a benign condition to an aggressive disease with fatal outcome. one of the most important characteristics of pstt, unlike other forms o...

There are more than 500 anomalies caused by simple genetic factors and perhaps an equal number of others derived from multifactorial causes or chromosome aberrations where there are orofacial alterations. The frequency of symptom-less carriers of heredity anomalies that affect the teeth can be calculated from genetic data that is often essential to advise on the probability of affected offsprin...
