abstract   squamous cell carcinoma (scc) is the most common malignant tumors of oral cavity. the ratio of men to women is about 2: 1. generally, it   is admitted that 60% of carcinoma of the mandibular gingival are located in the posterior of premolars. gingiva is one of the less common sites of oral squamous cell carcinoma (oscc). due to the variable clinical and behavioral presentations, it c...

squamous cell carcinoma (scc) is the most common malignant tumor of the oral cavity and one of the ten most common causes of death. it arises from dysplastic oral squamous epithelium. considering the pathogenesis of scc, a smooth and intact surface in this lesion is not a usual finding. in this paper, we report an extremely rare case of oral scc in buccal mucosa presenting as an exophytic lesio...

Background and Aim: Oral mucosal lesions have various prevalence rates among different populations. Few studies have evaluated the frequency of oral mucosal lesions in Iranian population. This study aimed to determine the frequency of oral mucosal lesions and the related factors.                   &nb...

skin cancer is one of the most important type of cancers in the world. in this way, molecular investigation in order to detect some novel mechanisms and polymorphisms involved in cancer development can be impressive and vital. in this way, the aim of this study was the histopathological investigation of skin cancer and its relationship with polymorphism of cdkn2a gene. this case-control study w...

introduction: a rare case of basaloid squamous cell carcinoma (bscc) of the larynx, which has not been previously reported, is described. case report: a 60-year-old man was presented to the otolaryngology department with progressive dyspnoea and dysphagia to solids for over a period of 1 week. direct laryngoscopy revealed a tumour at the laryngeal aspect of the epiglottis, which prolapsed into ...

background & objectives:  cd10 is a cell surface enzyme with metalloendopeptidase activity, also known as common acute lymphoblastic leukaemia antigen, which mainly serves as a marker for acute lymphoblastic leukemia (all). to date and to the best of our knowledge, only few comparative immunohistochemical studies have assessed cd10 expression in cutaneous epithelial neoplasms. our goal was ...

Background: Although systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) correlates with patient survival in various solid malignancies limited information is available the setting of oral cavity squamous cell carcinoma (OCSCC).

background and aim: oral mucosal lesions have various prevalence rates among different populations. few studies have evaluated the frequency of oral mucosal lesions in iranian population. this study aimed to determine the frequency of oral mucosal lesions and the related factors.                        materials and methods: this descriptive study was conducted based on the data in the archives...

β-Catenin acts as a structural protein at cell-cell adherens junctions and as a transcription activator mediating Wnt signal transduction. Altered β-catenin expression has been associated with loss of cell differentiation and acquisition of an invasive phenotype. In the present study, β-catenin expression was compared immunohistochemically between oral squamous cell carcinoma (30 cases) and ver...
