Introduction: Ectopic teeth occur in a wide variety of sites, including the maxillary sinus, mandibular condyle, coronoid process, orbital, and nasal cavities. Reported symptoms and signs associated with nasal teeth include facial pain, external nasal deformities, foul-smelling rhinorrhea, recurrent epistaxis, and oronasal fistula. Ectopic teeth occurring bilaterally in the nasal cavity is ver...

introduction: ectopic tooth eruption may result owing to one of 3 processes: developmentaldisturbance, iatrogenic activity, or pathologic process, such as a tumor or a cyst. in rare cases, occlusion of the sinus ostia may predispose a patient to develop a maxillary sinus mucocele. when the maxillary sinus is invaded, symptoms usually occur late in the process.   case report: a 17 years old boy ...

ectopic decidualization with gross involvement of the peritoneum is one of the rare findings in pregnant women particularly when ectopic decidualization disseminated as an asymptomatic intra-abdominal nodule. we present here a case of an ectopic decidualization in a 33-year-old pregnant woman with symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome during pregnancy.

we report the delayed eruption and infraocclusion of a mandibular second primary molar with ectopic location of the permanent successor. this was a rare case where the second premolar was located to the distal side of the impacted mandibular second primary molar. early intervention is recommended to manage orofacial disfigurement and prevent consequent problems.

objective: to evaluate the plasma creatine phosphokinase (cpk) level after injection of methotrexate (mtx) as a predictor of treatment success in ectopic pregnancy (ep). materials and methods: one hundred women treated with single dose of methotrexate for ectopic pregnancy were evaluated in a prospective study, for cpk and ß-subunit of human chorionic gonadotropin (ß-hcg) levels. they received ...

background: the incidence of ectopic pregnancy varies between 1.5-2% of all pregnancies. bilateral tubal ectopic pregnancy is rare. it may occur in 1 per 200 000 pregnancies. case: this is a case report of 25 year-old woman who underwent intra uterine insemination (iui), because of tubal factor infertility (unilateral). on the 30pthp day after the iui she complained from pelvic pain and vaginal...

Background: Endometriosis is a common gynecological disease in which oxidative stress is a potential factor. Caffeine and caffeic acid are present in various foods and beverages with anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-carcinogenic properties. In this study, we aimed to investigate the ameliorative effects of caffeine, caffeic acid, and caffeine+caffeic acid treatments on oxidative stress...

Background MIF via its receptor, CD74, initiates a signaling cascade that leads to proliferation and survival of cells. Also, MIF binding to CD74 activates p38 signaling pathways that lead to positive effect on the expression of COX-2. The aim of this study was to evaluate the gene expression profile of MIF, CD74 and COX-2 in normal, ectopic and eutopic endometrium during menstrual cycle. The e...

introduction: ectopic molar pregnancy is a rare occurrence and consequently not often considered as a diagnostic possibility. in this article, an attempt was made to stress on the need for histopathological examination and follow up of every case of ectopic pregnancy. this was substantiated with the help of a case report. case presentation: a 30-year-old gravida 4, para 3, pregnant woman with a...
