Recent studies directed toward developing a better understanding of the molecular and cellular biology basis of monocyte-derived multinucleated giant cell formation, function, and biologic activity are presented. In addition, HIV-1-infected T-lymphocyte syncytia and the significance of adhesion
BACKGROUND
Giant cell myocarditis is a rare and frequently fatal disorder of unknown origin that is defined histopathologically as diffuse myocardial necrosis with multinucleated giant cells in the absence of sarcoidlike granulomata. The clinical and pathologic features of lymphocytic myocarditis
Necrosis of the oral tissues developed in two elderly patients following their admission to the hospital for hypothermia and massive subcutaneous blood loss, respectively. One had necrosis of the fingertips, a feature sometimes associated with giant cell arteritis. Biopsy of the oral lesion in this
Solitary fibrous tumors of the pleura are uncommon mesenchymal tumors that have been reported in adults. There are very few cases in children. These tumors are considered benign but their behavior is often unpredictable because they can invade nearby structures and transform into malignant variants
We present a case of a 75-year old woman, who developed scalp necrosis as a result of giant cell arteritis in the temporal arteries. This is a very rare, but serious complication of temporal arteritis, which implies an increased risk of visual loss and other catastrophic sequelae. Healing of the
Schwannomas are benign slow growing tumors that arise from myelin producing Schwann cells. Schwannomas developing in cervical-dorsal region are rare benign neoplasms which are emerges leisurely remains asymptomatic some times and functionally inactive tumours. Giant Schwannomas extending over two or
OBJECTIVE
Giant cell arteritis (GCA) often presents with devastating visual loss in the elderly, yet early diagnosis and treatment can prevent visual loss. The authors report two cases of GCA in which scalp necrosis, a rare finding not reported previously in the ophthalmic literature, played an
