Conjunctival and tonsillar sites for malakoplakia have never been previously described. The diagnosis in these presented cases has only been arrived at after elimination of mycosis and parasitic disease. The aetiology remains unknown and the pathophysiology is discussed.

Asymptomatic carriage of canine infectious respiratory disease complex pathogens among healthy dogs.
J Small Anim Pract
August 2021
Department of Small Animal Clinical Sciences, Michigan State University, 736 Wilson Road, East Lansing, MI, 48824, USA.
Objectives: The objectives of this study were to determine the prevalence of canine infectious respiratory disease pathogens among asymptomatic client-owned dogs, and to compare the risks of asymptomatic pathogen carriage between client-owned dogs and dogs in an animal shelter.
Materials And Methods: Pooled tonsillar, conjunctival and nasal cavity swabs from asymptomatic client-owned dogs (n=133) were tested using a real-time polymerase chain reaction canine respiratory panel. Identical samples from asymptomatic dogs in an animal shelter (n=295) were similarly tested for selected pathogens.
Objective: The aim: Improvement of early diagnostics quality and efficiency of chronic pharyngeal diseases (CPD) treatment in children with DM-1 by studying the clinical and laboratory features of the disease course and complex therapy administration.
Patients And Methods: Materials and methods: A comprehensive examination of 707 children with diabetes mellitus-1, aged 3 to 18, was conducted, which determined clinical and laboratory features of their state in the presence and absence of chronic tonsillitis (CT).
Results: Results: Using microbiological and cytological examination of the palatine tonsils (PT) crypts, the leading role of microbial associations in the pathogenesis of HT in the formation of immune inflammation was determined, their influence on the local immunity indices was defined.
Comparative Assessment of DNA Targets and Amplification Methods for Detection in Human Samples.
Am J Trop Med Hyg
June 2020
Universidad Icesi, Cali, Colombia.
Multiple polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based approaches have been developed for detection in clinical and laboratory samples, and this diversity limits inter-study comparisons, meta-analyses, and generalization of findings. Towards harmonization of a molecular tool for detection of for research purposes we evaluated the concordance of 18SrDNA quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) and minicircle kinetoplastid DNA (mkDNA) PCR followed by Southern blot (PCR-SB) in in vitro infection systems and in lesion and mucosal swab samples from Colombian patients with cutaneous leishmaniasis caused by . The lower limit of parasite detection of 18SrDNA qPCR and mkDNA PCR-SB was 10 promastigotes and one intracellular amastigote per reaction.

August 2018
Department of Dermatology, University Hospital Jena, Jena, Germany.
Background: Mucous membranes may be affected by various diseases and the diagnostic accessibility is limited. Multiphoton laser tomography (MPT) is a useful tool for in vivo evaluation of superficial skin structures and might also be useful for the imaging of mucosa.
Objectives: In order to investigate the suitability of MPT for the evaluation of mucous membranes, tissue samples of different donors and anatomical localizations have been imaged.
A definitive diagnosis of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma made at a second biopsy.
J Nippon Med Sch
September 2014
Department of Ophthalmology, Nippon Medical School.
Introduction: A case of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma, the most frequent of the various conjunctival lymphoproliferative disorders, in which the initial biopsy was inconclusive but the second biopsy provided a definitive diagnosis, is reported.
Case Report: A 26-year-old woman with a 3-month history of bilateral conjunctival swelling was referred by a local physician for suspected MALT lymphoma. A salmon-pink elastic swelling was found to involve both eyes and to extend from the lower palpebral conjunctiva to the bulbar conjunctiva.
