Article Synopsis
- Human filarial parasites are a major cause of morbidity in developing countries, and finding new treatment methods is crucial due to existing drug limitations.
- The study introduces a new co-culture method that enables the production of infective larvae of Brugia malayi and outlines a technique for introducing genetic material into these larvae using the piggyBac transposon system.
- The newly developed methods will facilitate the creation of transgenic parasite lines, paving the way for advanced reverse genetic studies across all life cycle stages of the parasites.
Aims: Buschke-Lowenstein tumor (BLT) of the anal margin is a histologically benign tumor whose degeneration can lead to a deadly local evolution because of difficult and late diagnosis. The objective of this study was to report our experience and propose a therapeutic strategy for these rare tumors.
Methods: From 1996 to 2014, 10 men with a median age of 45 years (25-64) were treated for a BLT of the anal margin with a first local excision possibly followed by rectal amputation.
Vestigial retrorectal cystic tumors in adults: a review of 30 cases.
Gastroenterol Clin Biol
October 2009
Objectives: Retrorectal tumors are uncommon. This is a report on a series of vestigial retrorectal cystic tumors in adults that were surgically removed at two medical centers in France. We also assessed the significance of imaging and, in particular, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in the management of these lesions.
