The squamous cell carcinoma at the level of the cephalic extremity: epidemiological, clinical and histopathological aspects.

Malignant tumors represent one of the most important medical problems, due to the increased mortality rate, life quality alteration, and the lack of a curable treatment. Skin neoplasm ranks first most frequent top primary tumor, summing a higher percentage than any other neoplastic location. It is also known, the fact that, in our country, gastric adenocarcinoma represents the most encountered tumor of the digestive tube.

Anatomo-clinical aspects of the basal cell carcinoma at the level of the cephalic end.

More than one third of all diagnosed cancer cases from all over the world are skin cancers, and the majorities are basal cell carcinomas. The incidence of skin tumors around the world is growing, the main concern being the increased frequency of skin tumors among young persons. Therefore, an early detection is required, starting with the general practitioner, dermatologist, oncologist, plastic surgeon and not least, the pathologist.

Particle depositions and related hemodynamic parameters in the multiple stenosed right coronary artery.

Background: Blood flow analysis of the human right coronary artery (RCA) has been carried out to investigate the effects of serial stenosis on coronary hemodynamics. A 3-D model of a serial stenosed RCA was reconstructed based on multislice computerized tomography images.

Methods: A velocity waveform in the proximal RCA and a pressure waveform in the distal RCA of a patient with a severe stenosis were acquired with a catheter delivered wire probe and applied as boundary conditions.

Benign gastric tumors. Anatomopathological aspects of the gastric wall.

Unlabelled: Benign tumours of the stomach are quite rare and are discovered accidentally during routine endoscopy or necroscopy. They represent less than 20 per cent of gastric tumours, and their clinical picture consists in pain, bleeding and antropyloric stenosis.

Material And Method: The cases were studied retrospectively over a 10-year period (1995 - 2005) and consist of patients that underwent needle biopsies and surgery in the Timiş County Hospital.

Correlations between anomalies of jugular veins and areas of vascular drainage of head and neck.

The study conducted on 60 human cadavers preserved in formalin, in the Anatomy Laboratory of the "Victor Babes" University of Medicine and Pharmacy Timisoara, during 2000-2006, observed the internal and external jugular veins from the point of view of their origin, course and affluents. The morphological variability of the jugular veins (external jugular that receives as affluents the facial and lingual veins and drains into the internal jugular, draining the latter's territory--3.33%; internal jugular that receives the lingual, upper thyroid and facial veins, independent--13.

Anatomic and pathological aspects in the pathology of malignant gastric tumors.

Efforts in perfecting the methods of early diagnosis, in trying to assess premalignant conditions, and in properly staging malignant tumors are still in trend. The geographic area around Timişoara (Banat Region) is situated on the first place in the country as far as the gastric location of cancer is concerned. The authors aimed to deal with the initial stage in the development of gastric cancer, a stage which has been oncologically termed "precancerous damage", and with the neoplastic invasion of the gastric wall.
