TVEC: Talimogene laherparepvec INTRODUCTION Inflammatory melanoma was first described in 1984 in 2 patients presenting with nodular cutaneous melanomas resected from the back followed 4 to 12 months later by recurrence in the form of diffuse, indurated, erythematous skin 20-25 cm in diameter with scattered nodularity. Microscopic examination found melanoma cells in the dermis and dermal lymphat...

Acoustic sonic and ultrasonic resonance analysis is a new non-destructive testing technique that allows 100% testing of a wide range of test objects quickly and at low cost. After an impact, a specimen vibrates in certain characteristic modes and frequencies that can be measured by a microphone or laser vibrometer. Typical faults that can be detected are cracks, cavities, detached layers, mater...

OBJECTIVES To report a new phenotype of advanced endemic goiter that affects only one lobe of the thyroid gland. PATIENTS AND METHODS This study included 60 patients from the west of Sudan with long-standing unilateral simple endemic goiter that required obectomy, with emphasis on the gross appearance, measurements and cytological features of the contralateral lobe. RESULTS Out of 60 patien...

Hemangiomas and vascular malformations of the gastrointestinal tract are rare clinical entities that usually present as overt or occult bleeding. They can be distributed throughout the gastrointestinal system, or present as a singular cavernous hemangioma. Overall, 80% of such malformations are of cavernous subtype and are misdiagnosed as hemorrhoids and ulcerative colitis. Mucosal edema, nodul...

A 7 year-old girl was admitted with history of low-grade fever, weight loss and occasional cough for the last 6 months. Tuberculosis was suspected, for which antituberculous treatment was initiated. Chest X-ray demonstrated calcification of the pericardium with chest miliary shadowing. CT chest was done showing very fine sharply defined miliary nodularity throughout both lungs without mediastin...

We report the case of a 62-year-old Caucasian female with an 11-year history of an asymptomatic and unchanging plaque on her left shoulder. Physical examination revealed a 2.5cm round atrophic plaque with slight central nodularity and telangiectasias overlying a light-brown pigment network. The lesion was clinically most consistent with a scar from a prior surgical procedure. However, as there ...

Multidetector CT (MDCT) gastrography has been regarded as a promising technique for the preoperative imaging of gastric cancer. It has the ability to produce various three-dimensional (3D) images. Because 3D reconstruction images are more effective and intuitive for recognizing abnormal changes in the gastric folds and subtle mucosal nodularity than two-dimensional images, 3D MDCT gastrography ...

Mongolia has high prevalence of H. pylori infection and gastric cancer. Early detection eradication can prevent the progression atrophy we reduce incidence cancer in our country. A Kyoto classification score 2 or more indicates a Endoscopic 4 might indicate risk. In this study compared consistency between advanced early cancer, grade dysplasia low-grade This is retrospective that included patie...

Background: Studies with the latest technologies such as endoscopy with magnification and chromo endoscopy showed that various endoscopic aspects are clearly related to infection by Helicobacter pylori (HP). The description of different patterns of erythema in gastric body under magnification of images revived interest in identifying these patterns by standard endoscopy. Aim: Validate endoscopi...
