A benign fibrous histiocytoma with primary site of origin in the parietal bone has not yet been reported in the literature. We report here a case concerning a 12-year-old girl with a 14-month history of an enlarging parietal bone mass. The tumor was excised after removal of the cortical bone and resection of the tumor surrounding the cortical bone erosion using pre-plasticity titanium repair. B...

background: in several conditions we have face cranial bone defects. reconstruction of these defects remains one of the most challenging problems encountered by craniofacial surgeons.   objective: to evaluate bone repair in cranial bone defects by use of an implant made of octacalcium phosphate in combination with bone matrix gelatin (ocp/bmg).   methods: we used 40, 5–6-week-old male sprague-d...

The Lygodactylus genus is one of the most species-rich genera gekkonid lizards in Africa. It relatively few exclusively diurnal geckos’ lineages and its members include some smallest gekkonids. Osteological features within have never been addressed detail. We here provide a detailed bone-by-bone skull description picturatus to expand knowledgebase on gecko cranial structure. High-Resolution X-r...

Low current transcranial electrical stimulation (tCS) is an effective but somewhat inconsistent tool for augmenting neuromodulation. In this study, we used 3D MRI guided electrical transcranial stimulation modeling to estimate the range of current intensities received at cortical brain tissues. Combined T1, T2, and proton density MRIs from 24 adult subjects (12 male and 12 female) were modeled ...

UNLABELLED Hemangiopericytomas are rare hypervascular tumors arising from Zimmerman's pericytes. They usually occur in the soft tissue, and intraosseous lesions are very rare. Surgical excision is the first choice for treatment. Many studies show that patients should be monitored for some time following treatment because of a high rate of recurrence and metastasis after radical resection. This ...
