Context: Central nervous system lesions are diverse and remain one of the most challenging domains for neuropathologists. Intraoperative cytological diagnosis is now a universally accepted technique in diagnosis of central nervous system (CNS) lesions.
Aims: 1) To analyze and compare cytomorphological features of CNS lesions in intraoperative squash smears with histopathology, immunohistochemistry, and preoperative radiological diagnosis and 2) to determine the diagnostic accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity of intraoperative squash cytology.
Objectives: The purpose of this present study was to assess and compare the effectiveness and durability of topical application of remineralizing agent Casein Phospho Peptide (CPP-ACP, Toothmousse, GC corporation, Germany, Europe) and Resin infiltration (ICON, DMG, Hamburg, Germany) in the management of post orthodontic white spot lesions.
Study Design: A Randomized Control clinical trial was conducted among 60 children who had undergone fixed orthodontic therapy presented with white spot lesions (WSLs) on maxillary or mandibular anteriors after debonding. Identification of WSLs was done with International Caries Detection and Assessment System (ICDAS II) criteria.
