odontogenic keratocysts (okcs) are one of the most frequent features of nevoid basal cell carcinoma syndrome (nbs). it is linked with mutation in the ptch gene. partial expression of the gene may result in occurrence of only multiple recurring okc. our patient presented with nine cysts with multiple recurrences over a period of 11 years without any other manifestation of the syndrome.

clinical and histopathological features of basal cell carcinoma (bcc) may differ according to the type of carcinogen involved. bcc arising from radiotherapy treatment has high incidence and its clinical and histopathological features may be different from bccs caused by other carcinogens. the aim of our study was to investigate any possible association between specific histopathological or clin...

objective(s): in the past few decades, variety of foetal, embryonic and adult stem and progenitor cells have been tried with conflicting outcome for cell therapy of central nervous system injury and diseases. cellular characteristics and functional plasticity of globose basal stem cells (gbcs) residing in the olfactory epithelium of rat olfactory mucosa have not been studied in the past by the ...

background : basal cell carcinoma is the most common form of skin cancer in men. increased marker expressions of apoptosis and cell proliferation have been found in the majority of basal cell carcinomas. our purpose was to determine whether any correlation between immunohistochemical expressions of p53 and ki-67 in different histopathological variants of basal cell carcinoma and patient’s age, ...

nevoid basal cell carcinoma syndrome (bcns) is an autosomal dominant inherited disorder. multiple organ systems may be affected in this syndrome including abnormalities of the skin, skeletal system, genitourinary system and central nevus system. in this report, we present a case of nevoid basal cell carcinoma syndrome in a 26-year-old male patient. the patient had multiple odontogenic keratocys...

there is an impression that basal cell carcinomas (bcc) occurring in younger population may be of more invasive behavior in comparison to those arising in older patients. the purpose of this study was to investigate this hypothesis by comparing the histological types of bcc in a large cohort of young and old patients. a total of 287 histological reports and clinical records were evaluated. a co...
