SUMMARY Iris cyst occurs post intraocular -surgery or post penetrating trauma, when corneal epithelial cells or conjunctiva} epithcells gains access to the anterior chamber, with cells may continue to grow & covering all available surface and formed iris cyst. As the cyst grow may caused glaucoma or block pupil area & leads to vision treatment of all form of iris cyst and epithelial down growt...

Pancreatic pseudocysts (PPs) comprise more than 80% of the cystic lesions of the pancreas and cause complications in 7-25% of patients with pancreatitis or pancreatic trauma. The first step in the management of PPs is to exclude a cystic tumor. A history of pancreatitis, no septation, solid components or mural calcification on CT scan and high amylase content at aspiration favor a diagnosis of ...

introduction calcifying odontogenic cyst (coc) is a unique and uncommon odontogenic cyst classified into four groups of cystic, odontoma producing, ameloblastomatous proliferating and neoplastic ones. case presentation a 34-year-old iranian man complaining of a painless facial and palatal swelling of the left side of the maxilla persisted for approximately three years was referred to the depart...

Chitosan with excellent biodegradable and biocompatible characteristics has received attention as an oral drug delivery vehicle for controlled-release formulations. In this study an enteric-coated capsule containing theophylline-chitosan beads based on 23 factorial designs was prepared as a colon drug delivery system. The theophylline-chitosan gel beads were formulated by adding the drug-contai...

Glutamate, the major excitatory neurotransmitter in the CNS, is also an excitatory neurotransmitter in the enteric nervous system (ENS). We tested the hypothesis that excessive exposure to glutamate, or related agonists, produces neurotoxicity in enteric neurons. Prolonged stimulation of enteric ganglia by glutamate caused necrosis and apoptosis in enteric neurons. Acute and delayed cell deaths...

We used a molecular panel, targeting seven enteric viruses, to explore the advantage of using molecular methods to establish the etiology of enteric diseases and to evaluate the prevalence of enteric viruses in asymptomatic human immunodeficiency virus-infected patients. This approach favors rapidity and sensitivity of laboratory diagnosis of viral enteric syndromes.

cutaneous metaplastic synovial cyst (cmsc), presents as a solitary, tender subcutaneous nodule that usually occurs at the site of previous surgery or trauma. histologically, the lesion is characterized by a cystic structure with villous-like projections that lined by metaplastic synovial tissue. the main cause remains unclear, but trauma is presumed to be a precipitating factor, as most reporte...

background and aims. pathological fractures are rare in the maxillofacial region and account for less than 2% of all frac-tures in this site. they are defined as fractures that take place when bone has been weakened by an underlying pathologic process. among all pathoses, cysts (although so common in the maxillofacial region) constitute a very small part. here we report a case of a dentigerous ...

abstractepidermal inclusion cysts are uncommon in the breast, but the consequences can besevere when these cysts occur in the breast parenchyma. here, we report two suchcases. the patient in case 1 was an 37-year-old woman with a 3-cm palpable mass inthe right breast. mammography revealed a round and smoothly outlined mass, whichindicated a benign tumor, and sonography showed an irregularly sha...

Neuronal membranes from rat dorsal root ganglia provide a mitogenic signal to cultured Schwann cells and it has been suggested this is an important factor in regulating Schwann cell numbers during development. In this study, the influence of enteric neurons on the DNA synthesis of both Schwann cells and enteric glia has been investigated as well as the effect of axonal membrane fractions (axole...
