Calcifying odontogenic cyst associated with compound odontoma - A rare entity.
J Oral Maxillofac Pathol
February 2023
Article Synopsis
- Calcifying odontogenic cyst (COC), also known as Gorlin's cyst, is a rare benign cystic lesion identified by Gorlin in 1962, representing less than 1% of all odontogenic cysts.
- COC can exhibit different clinical forms, including cystic and solid types, often occurring alongside other odontogenic tumors like odontomas, and typically appears as an asymptomatic lesion in the jaw.
- Radiographically, COC shows as a unilocular, well-defined radiolucency with calcifications, and exhibits unique histopathological features such as a mix of ameloblastomous components and ghost cells.
Article Synopsis
- This study investigates how to identify gender from skeletal remains, specifically through the measurement of tooth dimensions, which are stable and durable human tissues.
- Researchers analyzed 100 dental casts (50 from males and 50 from females) aged 20-50, using calipers to measure various dimensions of teeth.
- Findings revealed that the mesiodistal width of maxillary canines and the cervicoincisal length of mandibular first molars are more effective for determining gender than other tooth dimensions studied.
Introduction: To determine the clinical significance of elevation of Troponin-I [cTn-I] during prolonged status epilepticus [pSE] SE is known to be accompanied by an increase in sympathetic outflow. Elevation of cTn-I has been linked to myocardial stress. We hypothesize that in patients with risk factors for coronary artery disease[CAD], pSE may lead to myocardial stress and an elevation of cTn-I.

J Oral Maxillofac Pathol
September 2012
Aims: To compare the area and number of AgNORs (silver stained nucleolar organizer regions) by morphometry between follicular and plexiform variants of ameloblastoma in order to analyze their cell proliferation rates.
Materials And Methods: This retrospective study was carried out on 30 cases each of follicular and plexiform ameloblastoma. The sections were obtained and stained with silver staining technique to identify the nucleolar organizer regions.
Reliability of acridine orange fluorescence microscopy in oral cytodiagnosis.
Indian J Dent Res
August 2012
Context And Aims: The oral cavity is the most predominant location in the head and neck region for primary malignant epithelial tumors. Oral cancer is estimated to be the sixth most common malignancy. Early recognition is imperative for successful treatment and good prognosis.
