Oral cavity T-cell lymphoma occurs rarely. This case report describes a patient with such a tumor. The case was a 75 years old man presented with a painless swelling on his hard palate mucosa. He had suffered from nose- bleeding and nasal obstruction. Pathology revealed the presence of a T-cell lymphoma tumor in the palate. Though rare, the signs and symptoms of the case suggest that T-cell lym...

background: reactive lesions of the oral cavity are non-neoplastic proliferations with very similar clinical appearance to benign neoplastic proliferation. this similarity is troublesome in the differential diagnosis. the aim of this study was to determine the frequency and distribution of oral cavity reactive lesions. materials and methods: the study was a retrospective archive review. the med...

Tuberculosis (TB) usually involves the lungs and hilar lymph nodes. Musculoskeletal TB occurs in 1%-3% of patients with TB, while chest wall TB constitutes 1%-5% of all cases of musculoskeletal TB. The present case reports a twenty six year old immunocompetent patient with multiple chest wall tuberculous abscesses along with multiple ribs destruction, in absence of active pulmonary TB or intrat...

This work reports, according to Bejan’s Constructal theory, the geometric optimization of an elliptical cavity that intrudes into a solid conducting wall. The objective is to minimize the global thermal resistance between the solid and the cavity. There is uniform heat generation on the solid wall. The cavity is optimized for two sets of thermal conditions: isothermal cavity and cavity bathed b...

oral submucous fibrosis is chronic progressive condition of oral cavity. the condition is well recognized for its malignant potential. usually the disease initiates with redness, blistering, and ulceration inside the mouth. it is characterized by progressive fibrosis of submucosal tissue. the pathogenesis of oral submucous fibrosis is not well understood. betelquid chewing is the major etiologi...

primary oral melanoma is a rare neoplasm of melanocytic origin, accounting for 0.5% of all oral malignancies. the “chameleonic” presentation of a mainly asymptomatic condition, rarity of this lesion, poor prognosis, and the necessity of a highly specialized treatment are factors that should be seriously considered by the involved health provider. here is a case report presenting a malignant mel...
