Navicular bone and cuneiform were infrequent locations of tarsal tuberculosis. The present study reported an unusual case of navicular and cuneiform tuberculosis who was successfully treated with Streptomycin-loaded bone cement. A 71-year-old Chinese male patient was admitted to our hospital with complaints of swelling and pain at the dorsal aspect of the right foot for 6 months. The patient pr...

Multiple myeloma (MM) is a malignant immunoproliferative disease involving plasma cells, leading to their proliferation and the production of monoclonal paraproteins. Intracranial tumor spread in MM very rare. This unique infrequent localization, which makes it difficult diagnose disease. We report rare case treatment patient with intracranial spread, whose was presumably remission recurred as ...

  The distribution and localization of acid and neutral mucins in various cells lining the olfactory epithelium of Cyprinus carpio have been studied histochemically by employing the PAS-AB technique. Variations in the localization of protein in different cells lining the olfactory epithelium have been correlated with the functional significance of the region concerned. Intense localization of t...

Primary chondroid tumors of the larynx represent less than 1% of all laryngeal tumors. Most of them are chondromas and they often involve to the cricoid cartilage. A 31-year-old male patient applied to the oto-laryngology service with a history of dysphonia and dyspnea. Microlaryngoscopy revealed 2 cm sized, ill-defined, covered with regular mucosa, porous, and hard mass on posterior surface of...

Introduction Osteoid osteoma is a benign osteoid-forming tumor generally localized to the long bones, is rarely localized in the hand and the major symptom is intermittent pain. This study aims to present two patients who were operated on for metacarpal osteoid osteomas. Case Outline A 16-year-old female patient and an 18-year-old male patient were operated on for metacarpal osteoid osteomas. T...

abstract carcinoid tumors are well differentiated neuroendocrine tumors with secretory components. these tumors are uncommon but the most common primary tumors of the distal small intestine. we present a rare terminal ileum carcinoid tumor presenting with a small bowel obstruction. a 65 years old man presented with intermittent, gen-eralized, dull and colicky abdominal pain accompanied with int...

Incidence of tuberculosis infection has considerably increased during the past 20 years due to the HIV pandemic and continues to be one of the most prevalent and deadly infections worldwide. Extrapulmonary tuberculosis lacks specific clinical manifestation and can mimic many diseases. It can invade neighbouring tissue and form a big cyst with manifesting clinical symptoms. We describe a rare ca...

Although Hydatid disease eradicated in many countries, it is still widespread in communities where agriculture is dominant. Cystic hydatidosis is significant public health problem in the regions with endemic echinococcosis. The hydatid cysts tend to form mostly in the liver or lung. Brain involvement is very rare. In the present report, we describe magnetic resonance imaging findings in an 18-y...

The coronary arteries are normally localized subepicardially and are visible on the surface of the heart. Myocardial bridge is a most common congenital abnormality of coronary arteries. A segment of coronary artery travelling trough myocardial tissue, which is called tunneled artery, exhibits compression during systole. Generally, it is a benign condition and often asymptomatic, but it may also...

First described by Hirsch and Helwig in 1961, chondroid syringomas (CSs) are rare, benign tumors of the skin arising from the eccrine sweat glands with tumor differentiation in the epithelial and mesenchymal tissues. They most commonly occur in the head and neck, although they may be also found in the axilla, trunk, limbs, and genitalia. The incidence of CS is <0.01% of all primary skin tumors....
