Tumor angiogenesis occurs by recruitment of endothelial cell precursors or by sprouting of existing capillaries, which differ from the normal vasculature by having an altered morphology that can be exploited for diagnosis and as a prognostic indicator. Improved technologies have propelled diagnosis into a new era. These technologies have to be used with great precision. The diagnosis of a dyspl...

Aim: to prospectively evaluate degree of pain during transrectal ultrasound-guided prostate biopsy after receiving analgesics treatment of oral morphine sulphate compared to suppository sodium diclofenac. Methods: the study group comprised 60 consecutive men subjects (median age 67.8 years) undergoing transrectal prostate biopsy. They were randomized into two groups; group 1 received oral analg...

paecilomyces sp . are saprophytic fungi, which have rarely been pathogen for human. herein, we report a case of cutaneous infection with paecilomyces lilacinus with unusual presentations in a healthy young woman. a biopsy provided an initial diagnosis of fungal elements in the tissue. multiple positive fungal cultures were obtained from the biopsied tissue. microscopic and macroscopic examinati...

BACKGROUND This study was undertaken to show how an excisional biopsy procedure can be used to remove the entire specimen for oral lesions with difficult diagnoses. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed 52 cases with 56 oral lesions either suspected to be malignant or with a preliminary controversial diagnosis. These were treated by excisional biopsy with frozen section intraoperatively between...

OBJECTIVES To determine diagnostic value of modified Liquid Based Brush Biopsy technique. STUDY DESIGN 26 oral premalignant and malignant lesions in 25 patients (12 females; 54.23+/-19.77 years and 13 males; 53.77+/-15.43 years) underwent Modified (Liquid Based) Brush Biopsy and scalpel biopsy simultaneously from the same area. RESULTS There were 16 positive and 10 negative brush biopsy res...

OBJECTIVES To describe a new bench model for oral precancer/cancer biopsy training and to assess its effectiveness in terms of trainees' perception. STUDY DESIGN Cross-sectional, descriptive, performed on 424 general dental practitioners (GDP) who undertook biopsies on a pig tongue. The participants were assessed by direct observation for 2.5 hours using specific check-lists and by means of a...

The prognosis for patients with oral squamous cell carcinoma remains poor in spite of advances in therapy of many other malignancies. Early diagnosis and treatment remains the key to improved patient survival. Because the scalpel biopsy for diagnosis is invasive and has potential morbidity, it is reserved for evaluating highly suspicious lesions and not for the majority of oral lesions which ar...

Introduction: The inferiorly and laterally based platysma myocutaneous flap contains hair in some ethnics; therefore, it is required to change the myocutaneous flap to myofascial flap to prevent the hair growth after its transfer to the oral cavity.   Materials and Methods: Five male mongrel dogs were selected for this study. De-epithelialized laterally based platysma fl...
