  • Pathology of Anal Cancer
    Pathology of Anal Cancer a b Paulo M. Hoff, MD, PhD , Renata Coudry, MD, PhD , a, Camila Motta Venchiarutti Moniz, MD * KEYWORDS Anal cancer Anal squamous intraepithelial neoplasia Squamous cell carcinoma Human papilloma virus (HPV) Molecular KEY POINTS Anal cancer is an uncommon tumor, squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) being the most frequent histology corresponding to 80% of all cases. Human papilloma virus (HPV) infection plays a key role in anal cancer development, en- coding at least three oncoproteins with stimulatory properties. SCC expresses CK5/6, CK 13/19, and p63. P16 is a surrogate marker for the presence of HPV genome in tumor cells. INTRODUCTION Anal cancer accounts for approximately 2.4% of gastrointestinal malignancies.1 Although anal cancer is a rare tumor, its frequency is increasing, especially in high- risk groups.2 Tumors in this location are generally classified as anal canal or anal margin. Squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is the predominant type of tumor and shares many features with cervical cancer. Oncogenic human papilloma virus (HPV) infection plays a major role in both tumors.3 HIV infection is associated with a higher frequency of HPV-associated premalignant lesions and invasive tumors.4 Normal Anatomy of the Anus The anal canal is the terminal part of the large intestine and is slightly longer in male than in female patients. It measures approximately 4 cm and extends from the rectal ampulla (pelvic floor level) to the anal verge, which is defined as the outer open- ing of the gastrointestinal tract. The anal verge is at the level of the squamous- mucocutaneous junction with the perianal skin.5,6 The authors have nothing to disclose.

  • Based Facial Cosmetic Procedures
    Chapter 30 Office – Based Facial Cosmetic Procedures Farzin Sarkarat, Behnam Bohluli and Roozbeh Kahali Additional information is available at the end of the chapter http://dx.doi.org/10.5772/53882 1. Introduction The human face has an important role in a person’s identity, communication and self-confi‐ dence. Thus, any disfigurement or deformity of the face can causes both functional and so‐ cial isolation. Facial cosmetic surgery seeks to rejuvenate and restore facial volume loss, static and dynamic rhytids and facial form from the effects of aging, facial muscle move‐ ments and gravity. The sudden explosion in recent years of non-surgical rejuvenative tech‐ niques is patient-driven. Addressing facial rhytids and undesirable skin changes has required an in-patient stay and a significant period of recovery time. But today’s cosmetic patients increasingly desire office-based procedures with minimal recovery time. They are looking for maximal improvement with minimal risks, and cost that will provide them some form of facial rejuvenation and at the same time allow them to get back to work or their so‐ cial lives as soon as possible. Minimal recovery procedures, offer patients significant esthetic options with minimal or no recovery time and minimal risks. These procedures including the use of injectable fillers, fat transfer, botulinum toxin injection and facial resurfacing tech‐ niques are among the most popular and widely performed office procedures. In this chap‐ ter, we discuss office-based facial cosmetic procedures, their indications and contra- indications, benefits and risks and procedural methods. 2. Injectable fillers Soft tissue augmentation with the various soft tissue filler materials is particularly per‐ formed on patients with minimal to moderate signs of facial aging and because of its non‐ surgical procedure and minimal downtime, is very popular.

  • Vestibulovaginal Sclerosis Versus Lichen Sclerosus
    International Journal of Gynecological Pathology 37:356–363, Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, Baltimore Copyright r 2017 The Author(s). Published by Wolters Kluwer Health, Inc. on behalf of the International Society of Gynecological Pathologists Original Article Vestibulovaginal Sclerosis Versus Lichen Sclerosus Tania Day, M.D., F.R.A.N.Z.C.O.G., Kate Burston, M.B.B.S., Graeme Dennerstein, F.R.A.N.Z.C.O.G., Ross Pagano, F.R.A.N.Z.C.O.G., and James Scurry, F.R.C.P.A. Summary: To determine if vestibulovaginal sclerosis and lichen sclerosus (LS) are 2 distinct entities. Biopsies obtained from the vagina or vulvar vestibule that contained abnormal subepithelial collagen were reviewed. Cases were categorized either as LS or vestibulovaginal sclerosis based on presence or absence of basal layer degeneration and lymphocytic infiltrate. Clinical data collected included examination findings, biopsy site and indication, previous vulvovaginal surgery, medications at time of biopsy, vulvar LS, treatment, and response. There were 15 cases with a mean age of 62 yr (range: 32–86 yr); 12 (80%) specimens were from vestibule and 3 from vagina. Nine cases were categorized as LS because of lymphocytic infiltrate in combination with basal layer degeneration, of these 8 had LS elsewhere on vulvar skin. Six cases were classified as vestibulovaginal sclerosis and had an absent or sparse lymphocytic infiltrate and essentially normal epithelium; none of these had vulvar LS. While vestibulovaginal sclerosis and lichen sclerosus are distinguishable clinically and histopathologically, further studies are needed to determine if vestibulovaginal sclerosis is a subset of LS or a different condition.

Its exact morphology in the human is still insufficiently known. The histology in serial sections of upper and lower lid margins in whole-mount specimens from 10 human body donors was compared to in vivo confocal microscopy of eight eyes with a Heidelberg retina-tomograph (HRT II) and attached Rostock cornea module. Behind the posterior margin of the Meibomian orifices, the cornified epider- mis stopped abruptly and was replaced by a continuous layer of para-keratinized (pk) cells followed by discon- tinuous pk cells. The pk cells covered the muco-cutaneous junction (MCJ), the surface of which corresponded to the line of Marx (0.2–0.3 mm wide). Then a stratified epithelium with a conjunctival structure of cuboidal cells, some pk cells, and goblet cells formed an epithelial elevation of typically about 100 lm initial thickness (lid wiper).

ADA Standard No. 2000.2 - 2018 AMERICAN NATIONAL STANDARD/AMERICAN DENTAL ASSOCIATION STANDARD NO. 2000.2 FOR SNODENT (SYSTEMIZED NOMENCLATURE OF DENTISTRY) FOREWORD (This Foreword does not form a part of ANSI/ADA Standard No. 2000.2 for SNODENT (Systemized Nomenclature of Dentistry). The ADA SNODENT Canvass Committee has approved ANSI/ADA Standard No. 2000.2 for SNODENT (Systemized Nomenclature of Dentistry). The Committee has representation from all interests in the United States in the development of a standardized clinical terminology for dentistry. The Committee has adopted the standard, showing professional recognition of its usefulness in dentistry, and has forwarded it to the American National Standards Institute with a recommendation that it be approved as an American National Standard. The American National Standards Institute granted approval of ADA Standard No. 2000.2 as an American National Standard on December 3, 2018. A standard electronic health record (EHR) and interoperable national health information infrastructure require the use of uniform health information standards, including a common clinical language. Data must be collected and maintained in a standardized format, using uniform definitions, in order to link data within an EHR system or share health information among systems. The lack of standards has been a key barrier to electronic connectivity in healthcare. Together, standard clinical terminologies and classifications represent a common medical language, allowing clinical data to be effectively utilized and shared among EHR systems.

The study of these endings began as early as nUl when Vater discovered a lamellated corpuscle during the course of his dissection studies. This went unnoticed until 1836 when Pacini confirmed the findings of Vater. Since then, as quoted by Winkelmann (30), the corpuscle has been designated as the Vater-Pacini cor- puscle. In the year i860 Krause and his co-workers (li*), found an end bulb in the skin of mammals and noted a similar structure in the skin of the cat. Merkel (16) found tactile cells and corpuscles in the cat's paw. Sfameni (22) found that the corpuscle of Vater-Pacini was similar in both man and cat. In 19iil, Weddell (25) working on the slcin taken from the pad of the thuni) of a rhesus monkey found that a cutaneous nerve plexus was disposed in two main layers.

  • Abetalipoproteinemia [OMIM#200100]
    A Abetalipoproteinemia [OMIM#200100] Bassen–Kornzweig syndrome Bassen and Kornzweig first described the association of a progressive ataxic syn- drome with fat malabsorption, atypical retinitis pigmentosa, and acanthocytosis with a lack of serum betalipoproteins in two siblings of consanguineous parents in the 1950s. Abetalipoproteinemia is a rare autosomal recessive condition character- ized by the defective assembly and secretion of apolipoprotein-B-containing lipo- proteins, which are required for secretion of plasma lipoproteins that contain apolipoprotein B. In consequence, there are very low plasma concentrations of cholesterol and triglyceride, and of fat-soluble vitamins, especially vitamin E, which produces the clinical features of peripheral neuropathy, retinitis pigmentosa, and cerebellar degeneration. The condition is caused by mutations in the gene cod- ing for microsomal triglyceride transfer protein (MTP) on chromosome 4q22-24, a protein required for the assembly of lipoproteins which contain apolipoprotein B. A related condition, hypobetalipoproteinemia, is inherited in an autosomal domi- nant fashion, with a defect in the apolipoprotein-B gene in some cases, and in the homozygous state may be indistinguishable from abetalipoproteinemia. Clinical features • Malabsorption: steatorrhea, with failure to thrive in children. • Retinal degeneration: usually before the age of 10 years, with impaired night vision (nyctalopia) initially, and progressive retinitis pigmentosa; vita- min A deficiency may be significant. However, visual impairment is seldom severe. • Peripheral neuropathy: a sensorimotor neuropathy with areflexia is often the presenting feature and is usually present by 10–30 years of age; vitamin E deficiency may be significant. • Ataxic syndrome: with dysarthria, nystagmus, and head titubation. It results from a combination of peripheral neuropathy, spinocerebellar tract degen- eration, and direct cerebellar damage (i.e., sensory and cerebellar ataxia); vitamin E deficiency may be significant.
