INTRODUCTION Posterior capsule opacification (PCO) is a visually-disabling complication of cataract surgery. OBJECTIVE To estimate energy levels for capsulotomy in various subtypes of PCO (membranous, fibrous and fibro-membranous). MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 215 patients with PCO were randomly selected and evaluated for Nd: Yag laser capsulotomy, after a quiet post-operative course of...

INTRODUCTION Fibro-osseous lesions constitute a rare benign type of pathology with a non-odontogenic lineage that affect the craniofacial area. According to Waldrom's classification, these lesions are divided into: fibrous dysplasia (FD), cemento-ossifying fibroma (COF) and desmoplastic fibroma (DF). MATERIAL AND METHODS A retrospective study was performed on patients diagnosed with fibro-oss...

UNLABELLED We observed an unusual case of Lipofibroadenoma (LFA) in the anterior mediastinum with a 21-year-old man, who was detected with a mass on a chest X-ray scan for one month. Thymothymectomy was then performed and the mass was excised completely, in which the tumor was histologically composed of epithelial cells, lymphocytes, mature adipose and fibrous tissue. Within the tumor, the fat ...

Introduction: The ameloblastic fibro-odontoma is a rare mixed neoplasm composed of proliferating odontogenic epithelium, ectomesenchymal tissue, and varying degrees of dental hard tissue formation. The mean age of the incidence is from 8-12 years and there is no gender or anatomic site predilection, but it is most commonly found in children’s or teenager’s jaws. Case report: A 3-year-old female...

Fibrobacter succinogenes S85 is an anaerobic non-cellulosome utilizing cellulolytic bacterium originally isolated from the cow rumen microbial community. Efforts to elucidate its cellulolytic machinery have resulted in the proposal of numerous models which involve cell-surface attachment via a combination of cellulose-binding fibro-slime proteins and pili, the production of cellulolytic vesicle...
