A female presenting multiple osteoma cutis lesions without underlying endocrinological disturbance was studied. Histologically, lesions revealed true bone formation with multiple osteoblastic cells. This was confirmed by demonstrating high alkaline phosphatase activity and osteonectin expression in
A 62-year-old Asian woman presented with multiple small, rock-hard papular lesions on her face (Figure). She had no previous history of acne vulgaris or cutaneous malignancy. She had been diagnosed with breast cancer in 1995 and was treated with left lumpectomy followed by combination chemotherapy
Osteomas (dense compact neoplasms of mature bone tissue) are rare in nearly all strains and stocks of mice. Of 224 Him:OF1 mice maintained until natural death or until terminally ill, 116 (51.8%) had one or more osteomas. Osteomas had a predilection for the skull and the larger bones of the limbs.
The authors report a case of choroidal osteoma in an elderly patient. The affection was bilateral and multifocal. This rare benign tumor mostly affects young females. We report the outcome of the clinical and instrumental examinations leading to the diagnosis of choroidal osteoma. The patient
Cell lines were established by a two-step method from osteomas which had been induced by infection of mice with RFB MuLV, a bone-pathogenic, replication-competent murine retrovirus. The benign tumors, consisting of mature lamellar bone and surrounded by a thin periosteum, were cultured on sponges of
A unique cas of dermal calcification occurred in a 14-month-old femal infant. Results of all pertinent laboratory data obtained on this patient were within normal limits except for an elevation of the heat labile fraction of alkaline phosphatase. A skin biopsy specimen showed irregularly shaped
Although the therapeutic outcome of osteosarcoma patients has improved dramatically within the last 20 years because of combined neoadjuvant chemotherapy and surgery, the problem of drug resistance remains. Thus far, markers that can predict the response to chemotherapy at the time of biopsy are not
A transplantable osteogenic sarcoma originally arising in the right femur of an AKR/Ms male mouse is described. The original tumor showed a conspicuous bone and cartilage formation, but the capability of forming the bone was lost in the 4th transplant generation and that of cartilage formation was
Intracortical osteosarcoma is the rarest variant of osteosarcoma, occurring within, and usually confined to, the cortical bone. Oncogenic osteomalacia, or rickets, is an unusual clinicopathologic entity in which vitamin D-resistant osteomalacia, or rickets, occurs in association with some tumors of
Objective:To compare and analyze the incidence, clinical features ,imaging features, the preoperative serum alkalinosis phosphatase (ALP) and recurrence rates of osteoma, ossifying fibroma (OF), and fibrous dysplasia (FD) in sinus and maxillofacial benign fibrosis (FOLS). Method: The 273 cases of
Although in recent years the outcome of patients with osteosarcoma has considerably been improved by combining neoadjuvant chemotherapy with radical surgery, there still remains the problem of nonresponse to chemotherapy. T-lymphocytes play a critical role in tumor immunology, and MHC molecules are
BACKGROUND
Metachondromatosis (MC) is a very rare genetic disease, which is infrequently reported worldwide, which leads to osteochondroma and enchondromatosis. The disease has been shown to be associated with loss of function of the tumor suppressor gene "protein tyrosine phosphatase, non-receptor
Despite advances in nuclear medicine, bone scintigraphy remains an important imaging technique. It is sensitive in detecting stress fractures and bone metastases and can assess suspected injury that is difficult to see on plain films (e.g., rib fracture). Scintigraphy is useful in evaluating new
To compare the clinical characteristics of osteoma, ossifying fibroma (OF) and fibrous dysplasia (FD) in the paranasal sinus and craniofacial regions.Totally 282 patients (112 males, 170 females) with osteoma (161), OF (44), and FD (77) involving the
