background and aims. reactive hyperplastic lesions of the oral connective tissue are associated with injuries of soft tissue and have high prevalence rates and different involvement patterns in different parts of the world. the aim of this study was to analyze demographic data of a university department. materials and methods. patient records of the department of oral pathology during a four-ye...

background: several factors are associated with the development or exacerbation of pain in knee osteoarthritis (koa). in this study, we reviewed this context based on relevant studies. methods: recent published studies which have addressed the relationship between pain and koa were summarized. results: correlates of the clinical, demographic features, laboratory tests and abnormalities on radio...

abstract background and aims. reliable immunohistochemical assays to evaluate the definitive role of mast cells and angiogenesis in the pathogenesis of oral reactive lesions are generally not available. the purpose of the present study was to compare mast cell count (mcc) and microvessel density (mvd) between oral reactive lesions and evaluation of the correlation between mcc and mvd in these l...

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...

background: few studies regarding oral lesions of children and adolescents were reported in the medical literature. the aim of this study was to determine the frequency of these lesions in patients from birth to 20 years old in babol, northern iran.methods: the slides of all cases of oral lesions in children and adolescents, between 1990 and 2012 were obtained from the pathology archives of sha...

Introduction: Peripheral reactive lesions of soft tissue are common oral lesions that dentists face during routine examinations. Diagnosis and development of a treatment plan is difficult if dentists are not aware of the prevalence and clinical symptoms of these lesions. The frequency of these lesions differs across various populations. The aim of this study was to determine the frequency and d...

statement of the problem: soft tissue reactive lesions are the most common lesions of the oral cavity. although many studies have shown the interaction of mast cells with fibroblasts and their participation in fibrosis, the role of mast cells in these lesions is not well understood. purpose: the aim of this study was to evaluate the mast cells (mcs) count in oral soft-tissue reactive lesions in...
