A 12-year-old female miniature poodle showed a 3-month history of neurological signs. Magnetic resonance imaging disclosed a high intensity tumor mass in the right cerebral hemisphere with compression of the lateral ventricle. At necropsy, a 2 × 3 cm white, friable mass was found in the right ventral pyriform lobe. Microscopically, the tumor cells were large, polygonal to round cells supported ...

in present research, 17 centrifuge tests have been conducted to study the effect of various parameters such as the number of piles, the distance between piles, gradation and thickness of the granular layer on the load-settlement behavior of a pile raft system. the results showed the importance of granular layer to reduce the settlement of non-connected pile raft system when the roles of piles a...

BACKGROUND Granular cell tumor (GCT) is an uncommon benign tumor founded in any part of the body but mainly in the tongue. Extra-tongue oral granular cell tumor (ETOGCT) is rare with few cases reported. Here we describe seven cases of oral GCT located in sites other then the tongue and discuss histopathological and immunohistochemical differences between differential diagnoses. MATERIAL AND M...

Introduction: Granular cell tumors are rare neoplasms, which can be either benign or malignant. They are often discovered as incidental findings on imaging. Case: 34-year-old smoker, with complaints of fever, chills; malaise was found to have a posterior mediastenal mass on chest imaging. EBUS guided FNA of the mediastenal mass revealed histopathologic features consistent with benign granular c...

INTRODUCTION A granular cell tumor involving the breast parenchyma was first described by Abrikossoff in 1931. Localization of this lesion to the breast is very rare, accounting for between 5% and 15% of all granular cell tumor cases. We present this case because of the rarity of this tumor. It is frequently confused with breast carcinoma on clinical and radiological examination, and its diagno...

Large granular lymphosarcaoma / leukemia is a neoplastic disease of lymphocytes that contain intracytoplasmic azurophilic granules. Large granular lymphocytes (LGL) can be found in the blood of healthy domestic species and usually constitute 10% or less of the total circulating lymphocyte pool.2,7 Large granular lymphocytes have lymphocyte morphology, possessing a round or bean-shaped nucleus, ...

By the use of frozen resin cracking method , scanning electron microscopy (SEM) makes it possible to investigate the deeper and finer structures of the inner ear. Another merit of this method is to obtain any sections of the organs without any significant artifactual damages to the tissues. The inner ears of the guinea pig were fixed and stained with osmic acid. After the cracking procedure fro...

Clear cell adenocarcinoma of the urethra is a rare disease entity with an uncertain histogenesis. Here, we present a case of primary clear cell adenocarcinoma of the female urethra with its cytological findings. A 54-year-old woman presented with a painless gross hematuria lasting 3 months. On vaginal sonography, there was a sausage-like, elongated mass in the urethra, measuring 3.8×4.3 cm. The...
