sensitivity curve for 1° 200 ms. flashes on a white background may be a rather precise indicator of the functioning of the opponent-color system. Thus, although J. T. believed that his right eye was normal, the corresponding spectral sensitivity curve (continuous curve, Fig. 3) lies near the limit of the normal range, indicating that his right eye may have been partially affected by a similar d...

Abstract Biopsies of the palate are generally well-tolerated with known complications pain, bleeding, or infection, that can usually be well-controlled. We report a case 63-year-old male who developed rare complication following biopsy an ulcer on junction between hard and soft palate. Despite uneventful routine biopsy, patient presented oro-nasal fistula complaints nasal discharge. The cause w...

The aim of this study was to find if Doppler ultrasound of the axillary and lateral thoracic arteries in breast cancer cases would differ from benign breast lesions and normal controls. Two hundred patients with breast lumps were included in the study. Clinical examination, mammography, breast ultrasound and fine needle aspiration or tru-cut biopsies were done for all cases. Breast ultrasound i...

In ovarian cancer, it has become increasingly clear that tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) confer a survival benefit to patients. 1 It is tempting to strive to further define the key TIL subsets driving antitumor immunity, as one can envision developing T cell-based therapy armed with this knowledge. Indeed, refinements in adoptive T-cell therapy seeking to identify antigen-specific populat...

Earlier studies on femoral neck fractures have assessed the blood flow in either the pre- or postoperative period and information is lacking regarding changes in vascular flow to the femoral head after injury. Sixty-two adults with low-energy intracapsular femoral neck fractures were studied prospectively. Mean patient age was 57.2 years (range, 45-82 years). All patients underwent positron emi...

The eighteenth patient and seventh survivor with the Cronkhite-Canada syndrome is described. A remission of 9 years followed gastrectomy and steroid therapy. Findings on seventeen other patients described in the literature are reviewed. The histological features are discussed in detail. The jejunum, though macroscopically normal, showed oedema, increased vascularity and mucous gland secreting a...
