INTRODUCTION: Most ear lobules with congenital pixie earlobe deformities are small because of their hypoplastic nature. This small earlobe makes it more looks like a pixie deformity. Ultimately, sufficient 2-dimensional expansion of hypoplastic earlobe camouflage pixie ear. Numerous surgical techniques have been introduced to correct pixie earlobe deformities.1–3 However, several of these techn...

Leprosy can present with a variety of clinical manifestations depending on the immune status of the individual. After dermatological and neurological involvement, rheumatic features specially various forms of arthritis are the third most common manifestation of the disease. We describe a unique case of a 22-year-old patient presenting with external ear involvement mimicking relapsing polychondr...

Though somatotopic encoding of function is a prominent feature in brain structures involved in sensori-motor processing, it has not been well established for the human cerebellum. We delineated the representation of hand, foot and tongue movements in the anterior cerebellar lobe of eight healthy subjects using dynamic high-resolution MRI sensitized to changes in cerebral blood oxygenation (CBO)...

The pathology of an unusual intracranial neuroectodermal tumour of the neuron series in described and its possible histogenesis discussed. The tumour, in a child aged 5 years with an enlarged head since infancy, presented as a large solid intra-cerebral mass. Histological examination showed four types of cells; (i) the stroma, forming the bulk of the tumour, was astrocytomatous; (ii) lobules of...

A 10-year-old female miniature poodle had a mass in its carpal joint of the left forelimb. The tumor was divided into small multiple lobules by delicate connective tissues, and necroses were found in some of the central lobules. In some connective stromal areas, chondroid and osteoid tissues were formed. The tumor cells were similar to the structure of apocrine gland epithelial cells with apica...

Adenolipoma of the breast is an uncommon mammary lesion classified as a hamartomatous lesion, presenting as a soft, mobile and well-defined mass. The typical mammographic findings is of a well-circumscribed lesion containing both fat and soft tissue surrounded by a capsule. Microscopically, adenolipoma exhibits a hamartomatous mixture of ducts and lobules intermingled with adipose and fibroconn...

Treatment of ovariectomized rats with dietary clofibrate caused a manyfold increase in the liver microsomal esterification of estradiol with fatty acids. The stimulatory effect of clofibrate administration on fatty acid esterification of estradiol by liver microsomes was paralleled in vivo by enhanced estradiol-induced increases in the formation of lobules in the mammary gland and by increased ...

Samples of Alburnus mossulensis were collected from the south part Euphrates River, Chybaish, Iraq November 2013 to October 2014 using electro fishing. The spawning period started in February according GSI values and histological examination for gonads during season. results examinations revealed that this species has a short season female ovaries contained different maturing stages ova, matura...

The complex carbohydrates in the bovine duodenal glands were examined histochemically using 5 peroxidase-labeled lectins to achieve a better knowledge of their glycoprotein profiles. The presence of at least 2 different cell types and secretion of neutral mucin were observed in the bovine duodenal glands. The duodenal gland cells located in the central area of the lobules contained neutral glyc...
