Aim: The aim of this study was to assess the treatment of keratocystic odontogenic tumor using enucleation and Carnoy's solution with peripheral ostectomy.
Materials And Methods: Twenty-nine patients (14 females and 15 males) with age range from 12 to 62 years were included in this study and followed up for 7 years; all the patients were treated in the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery of the Specialized Surgeries Teaching Hospital (Al-Shaheed Ghazi Al-Hariri Hospital-Medical City, Baghdad, Iraq). Enucleation followed by peripheral ostectomy and the application of Carnoy's solution is the standardized method of treatment.
Results: This study showed (32.7%) unilocular radiolucency for the lesions (19.9%) as multilocular radiolucency. Furthermore, it showed that the recurrence rate by this method was 0% with a minimum neurosensory disturbance.
Conclusion: The complications and morbidity originating from the application of Carnoy's solution occurred less frequently and were less serious than those associated with resection while the recurrence rate is 0% which is equal to the recurrence rate of resection.

Introduction: To optimize RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) outcomes, we investigated preanalytical variables in malignant effusions containing metastatic breast cancer. We compared 2 processing methods-Ficoll-Hypaque density gradient enrichment and CytoLyt hemolysis-focusing on their effects on RNA quality, transcript abundance, and variant detection from cytospin slides, relative to fresh-frozen samples. Additionally, we compared read-based and Unique Molecular Identifier (UMI)-based library preparation methods.

Unicystic ameloblastoma is a distinct entity of ameloblastoma characterized by slow growth and locally aggressive behavior. This retrospective study aimed to assess the efficacy of different treatment modalities of unicystic ameloblastoma, focusing on clinico-radiological and histopathological features. Data from patients diagnosed with unicystic ameloblastoma were retrospectively analyzed.

Purpose: The primary aim of this study was to compare time to odontogenic keratocyst (OKC) recurrence with 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) versus modified Carnoy's solution (MCS) following enucleation and curettage and peripheral ostectomy. The secondary aim was to compare the frequency (%) of permanent peripheral nerve injury characterized by hypoesthesia and neuropathic pain present at 12 months or more after surgery with 5-FU versus MCS.
Methods: The Cox hazard ratio was calculated to compare time to recurrence between the 2 groups.
A proposal for new genotoxic and cytotoxic endpoints to assess chemical effects on the red algae Ceramium tenuicorne.

Article Synopsis
- * This study aimed to assess the suitability of micronucleus and comet assay tests for detecting genotoxic effects in C. tenuicorne, but found that the tests were not effective due to the small and variable sizes of algal nuclei.
- * Researchers successfully optimized observation techniques and identified two endpoints (nucleus count and mitotic cell frequency) to evaluate chemical effects on the algae, specifically after exposure to cadmium chloride and maleic hydrazide.
Assessing Conservative Treatment Options for Odontogenic Keratocyst in a 12-Year-Old Patient, with 1-Year Follow-up.

Article Synopsis
- The odontogenic keratocyst (OKC) is a common type of jaw cyst, making up 10%-14% of all jaw cysts and known for its high rate of recurrence.
- Aggressive treatments like jaw resection and marsupialization are often necessary to manage OKCs.
- In a case study involving a 12-year-old girl, conservative marsupialization with Carnoy's solution and iodoform packing showed no recurrence of the OKC during a year of follow-up.
