Background: Salivary carcinosarcoma is an extremely rare tumor containing both malignant epithelial and mesenchymal constituents. This article reports a rare case of carcinosarcoma with salivary duct carcinoma and osteosarcoma as the tumor components. The clinicopathological characteristics, treatment, and prognosis are discussed in conjunction with the literature.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFLymph node metastasis (LNM) is a major determinant for the poor outcome of oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). Interferon regulatory factor 2 binding protein 2 (IRF2BP2) has been reported to modulate the development and progression of several types of cancers, while its role in OSCC with LNM has not been reported yet. The expression of IRF2BP2 and its association with LNM were evaluated by immunohistochemistry and qualitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction in clinically collected OSCC tissues.

Methods: Sixty cases of SACC were detected by immunohistochemical staining to evaluate TIM-3, Gal-9, and CD160 expression and analyze the correlation between TIM-3, Gal-9, CD160 expression and clinicopathologic features by rank-sum test. The association of TILs with TIM-3, Gal-9, and CD160 expression in SACC stromal was done by Chi-square test.

Article Synopsis
- Drug-induced pemphigus (DIP) is a specific type of pemphigus whose features and treatment depend on the drugs that cause it.
- The article discusses a case of pemphigus vulgaris triggered by rifampin in a tuberculosis patient, alongside a review of literature on DIP's characteristics.
- It emphasizes the need for healthcare providers to carefully investigate potential drug triggers when diagnosing pemphigus vulgaris in clinical practice.
Objectives: To investigate the expression of Ki-67, Cyclin D1, P53, and P16 in patients with oral leukoplakia (OLK) and OLK cancerization who have aspicy diet in Chengdu.
Methods: Thirtypatients with OLK andspicy diet and 15 patients with OLK without spicy diet in Chengdu were divided into three groups: hyperplastic OLK (OLK-), OLK with mild to moderate dysplasia (OLK+), and severe dysplastic OLK or oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) transforming from OLK (OLK++/OSCC). The expression of Ki-67, Cyclin D1, P53, and P16 were detected by immunohistochemistry and statistically analyzed.
[Improvement program on pretreatment of acid decalcified tissue in hematoxylin-eosin staining].

Objective: To explore the treatment conditions of acid decalcified specimens and improve the poor quality of sections and unclear structure of hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining caused by the change in pH in tooth and hard tissue after acid decalcification.
Methods: A total of 20 cases of oral pathological specimens that contain hard tissues were decalcified and treated with routine treatment, concentrated ammonia water immersion treatment, and saturated lithium carbonate solution immersion treatment. The quality and HE staining effects of hard tissue sections treated with different methods were compared.
