The most frequent indication for surgical treatment of the knee is lesion of the meniscus. The "all inside" arthroscopic technique with bioresorptive material for meniscus lesion is becoming the most popular treatment. This prospective study included 10 patients with posterior meniscal horn lesion operatively treated at Sports Traumatology Department. The "all inside" technique was performed by...

A variety of surgical approaches to temporal horn tumors of the lateral ventricle have been described. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and angiography are the preferred modalities for preoperative evaluation and provide important information for the choice of surgical approach. A 59-year-old man was referred to our hospital due to confusion and gait disturbance. On enhanced MRI, a homogeneous ...

this study was carried out in the winter of the year 2007 in a dairy herd at the vicinity of tehran (eslamshahr). measurements were performed on 18 holstein cows during first-lactation. five holstein dairy cattle were randomly selected and clinically studied, too. length of the claw’s dorsal flexure was measured with a ruler and also the hooves trimmed in the toe vertically for measuring of the...

A cutaneous horn is a uncommon and rare lesion. It is a conical projection of hyperkeratotic epidermis. Vary from a few milimeters to a several centimeters in length. The cutaneous horn is a clinical diagnosis and different histologic lesions have been documented at the base of the keratin mound. We presented a 77 years old female with a large "horn" of 3 years duration, arising from her forehe...

A cutaneous horn is a rare, hyperkeratotic, projecting lesion that can be mostly found in sun-exposed areas of the skin. The base lesions reveal an underlying malignancy. They also associated with several benign or pre-malignant dermatologic conditions. biopsy and histopathological analysis are needed to confirm diagnosis. Management depends on disease; however, surgical excision preferred trea...

Cutaneous horn is the clinical description of a hyperproliferation of compact keratin in response to a wide array of underlying benign and malignant pathologic changes. We report here on a case of cutaneous horn that originated from keratoacanthoma in a 76-year-old woman. Grossly, a 2.5×0.7 cm sized yellow-white colored scaly fungating mass from an erythematous nodule was observed on the right ...

Trichilemmal horn, or trichilemmal keratosis, is an uncommon benign neoplasm of follicular lineage with trichilemmal differentiation. The essential characteristics of this tumor are its clinical presentation in the form of a cutaneous horn with trichilemmal keratinization apparent in the histology study (with a hyperplastic epithelium giving rise to dense, orthokeratotic eosinophilic keratin). ...

We report a case of a detached anterior horn of the medial meniscus with anterior knee pain. Preoperative magnetic resonance images of the knee were initially interpreted as a parameniscal cyst. Arthroscopic examination revealed subluxation of the anterior horn of the medial meniscus due to detachment from its anterior tibial insertion. Arthroscopic fixation with a suture anchor was successful ...

Penile cutaneous horn is a clinical term that describes protruding hyperkeratosis, usually conical in shape, located on penile glans. Penile localization of this lesion, predominantly located on sun-exposed areas, is very rare. The association with malignancy on the penis makes proper identification of these lesions essential. We present a 45-year-old man with a cutaneous horn, 25 mm in size, l...

Spinal serotonergic pathways provide inhibitory and excitatory modulation of sensory, autonomic, and motor processing. After spinal cord injury (SCI), the acute inflammatory response is one process that damages descending pathways. Increases in serotonergic fiber density in spinal segments rostral and decreases caudal to the lesion have been observed previously and may contribute to neuropathic...
