cytomegalovirus is the most common viral infection after kidney transplantation. clinical presentations of cytomegalovirus infection range from asymptomatic infection to organ-specific involvement. most symptomatic infections manifest as fever and cytopenia. the gastrointestinal tract is the most common site of tissue-invasive infection, often presenting as diarrhea or gastrointestinal bleeding...

The reconstruction of scarring eyebrow defects is a challenging task for plastic surgeons as the an important cosmetic landmark face. Various methods are used reconstruction; free hair follicle transplantation, scalp composite graft, local flap transposition, and hair-bearing island have been widely reported in past applied according to size position defect. For partial defects, best option use...

in worldwide, an estimated 40 cases per 1 million people reported with new spinal cord injuries each year. people with spinal cord injuries suffer from severe physical, psychological, social and economic problems. damaged or lost cells can't be replaced when the spinal cord is injured; therefore, its function becomes disturbed permanently. despite the significant advances in the understand...

BACKGROUND The liver as transplantation site for human pancreatic islets is a harsh microenvironment for islets and it lacks the ability to retrieve the graft. A retrievable, extrahepatic transplantation site that mimics the pancreatic environment is desired. Ideally, this transplantation site should be located subdermal for easy surgical-access but this never resulted in normoglycemia. Here, w...

introduction: neuroblastoma is the most common extracranial solid tumor in children, accounting for 8% to 10% of all childhood cancers. significantly, autologous transplantation appeared to have the largest impact on survival for the high risk subset of patients, such as those with n-myc amplified metastatic disease diagnosed after age 2 years. patients and methods: this study includes high ris...

Age of host and transplantation-site microenvironment influence the tumorigenic potential of neoplastically transformed liver epithelial cells. Tumorigenic BAG2-GN6TF rat liver epithelial cells consistently form tumors at ectopic sites, but differentially express tumorigenicity or hepatocytic differentiation in the liver depending on host age and route of cell transplantation into the liver. Di...

Aim: Mucormycosis is an acute, invasive, devastating and highly fatal fungal infection, affecting particularly immunocompromised patients; fortunately, it rare. This study aimed to describe the attitude of mucormycosis in patients with a hematological disease, evaluate risk factors associated mortality.
 Material Method: We retrospectively assessed demographic clinical data who were diagno...

Cryopreservation of ovarian tissue has been proposed for storing gametes of young patients at high risk of premature ovarian failure. Autotransplantation has recently provided some promising results and is still the unique option to restore ovarian function from cryopreserved ovarian tissue in humans. In this article, we analyse data from the combined orthotopic and heterotopic transplantation ...
