Intravascular lobular capillary hemangioma (ILCH), or intravascular pyogenic granuloma, is relatively rare and likely underrecognized. We reviewed all ILCH cases from our institution confirmed pathologically from 2006 to 2019. Immunostains for smooth muscle actin and Wilms tumor 1 were performed on all cases and prior immunohistochemical stains were reviewed. Forty cases were identified (22 females; 18 males) with a median age of 53 years (range: 13 to 85 y). Clinically, all were well-circumscribed,...

There remains limited formal teaching and placements in oral and maxillofacial surgery (OMFS) in medical schools. OMFS incorporates surgical techniques and attends to conditions that overlap with specialties such as plastic, and ear, nose, and throat (ENT) surgery. With an aim to introduce medical undergraduates to OMFS and promote links to clinical OMFS departments, we hereby report the successful organisation and impact of a locally-arranged, undergraduate, dual-specialty conference.
The purpose of this study was to identify thrombin-activatable fibrinolysis inhibitor (TAFI) in saliva and to investigate the correlation between TAFI levels in saliva and plasma. Subjects included were healthy adults without diseases or medication that could affect coagulation. Samples of stimulated saliva and blood samples were obtained from 33 subjects. Levels of TAFI in saliva and plasma were analysed. The association between levels of TAFI in saliva and plasma was calculated using linear regression.
Our aim was to investigate delay in the treatment of patients with acute odontogenic infections. A prospective clinical study and a questionnaire survey were designed and implemented in the emergency maxillofacial surgical patients of Helsinki University Hospital, Finland, over a one-year period. Altogether 88 adult patients with odontogenic infections confirmed by hospital examination were included in the analysis. The outcome variable was admission to hospital. Two-thirds of the patients had had...
Our aim was to evaluate the feasibility of a minimally-invasive surgical technique for anterior maxillary distraction osteogenesis to correct maxillary hypoplasia in patients with clefts. A modified Y distractor was placed intraorally in 106 patients with cleft- associated maxillary deficiency to facilitate protraction of the maxilla. Subsequently the patients had an anterior maxillary osteotomy through a minimally invasive incision, followed by activation of the appliance at the rate of 0.8 mm/day...

Abstract Introduction Malignant gliomas have a dismal prognosis and significant efforts are being made to develop more effective treatments. Sonodynamic therapy (SDT) is an emerging modality for cancer treatment which combines ultrasound with sonosensitizers to produce a localized cytotoxic effect. The aim of this study is to demonstrate the efficacy of SDT with fluorescein (FL) and low-intensity focused ultrasound in inhibiting the...

Abstract The development of next-generation sequencing technologies has opened-up some new possibilities to explore the contribution of genetic variants to human diseases and in particular that of rare variants. Statistical methods have been developed to test for association with rare variants that require the definition of testing units and, in these testing units, the selection of qualifying variants to include in the test. In the coding regions of the genome, testing units...

Abstract Purpose The NMOC-3WAY catheter® is a novel urinary catheter for men that can be used to inject a local anesthetic into the urethra. We sought to assess whether the injection of a local anesthetic into the urethra via the NMOC-3WAY catheter® would reduce catheter-related bladder discomfort (CRBD) after endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR). Methods ...

This article presents experimental procedures for assessing memory impairments in pilocarpine-induced epileptic mice. This protocol can be used to study the pathophysiologic mechanisms of epilepsy-associated cognitive decline, which is one of the most common comorbidities in epilepsy.
The protocol describes specific labeling of mitochondrial nucleoids with a commercially available DNA gel stain, acquisition of time lapse series of live labeled cells by super-resolution structured illumination microscopy (SR-SIM), and automatic tracking of nucleoid motion.
This article demonstrates an extradural approach to obliterate the guinea pig endolymphatic sac and injure the endolymphatic duct with a fine pick in order to induce experimental endolymphatic hydrops.

Abstract Secondary neoplasms of epidermal adnexal origin have been reported to develop into nevus sebaceous(NS), mainly in adulthood but rarely in children. Four cases of secondary neoplasms were identified in 413 children of nevus sebaceous from 2015 to 2019 by our department, accounting for 1% of all cases. We here report the clinical, dermoscopical and histopathological features of these tumors, including syringocystadenoma papilliferum(SCAP), pilomatricoma, trichilemmoma and basal cell carcinoma(BCC)....
