Clinical presentation as well as histological or biological findings can sometimes make the diagnosis of giant cell arteritis difficult. Histopathological features of temporal artery biopsy from giant cell arteritis patients are also challenging because of the various described appearances or even finding of clinically normal temporal artery biopsy does not rule out the diagnosis. We here describe the case of a 51-year-old man with temporal artery biopsy showing lymphocytes infiltrates in the adventitia corresponding to the so-called adventitial pattern of giant cell arteritis according to Hernandez-Rodriguez et al.

Unlabelled: Denosumab,a monoclonal IgG2 antibody directed against RANK-L,is used as a neoadjuvant therapy for inoperable or metastatic giant cell tumor of bone. Many side effects like as hypocalcemia during treatment and rarely severe hypercalcemia especially in children after discontinuation of denosumab occurred. The unpredictable onset and recurrent episodes of severe hypercalcemia increase the duration of hospitalization and the risk of complications.

Introduction: Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is characterized by fever, fatigue, dry cough, dyspnea, mild pneumonia and acute lung injury (ALI), which can lead to acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), and SARS-CoV-2 can accelerate tumor progression. However, the molecular mechanism for the increased mortality in cancer patients infected with COVID-19 is unclear.

Methods: Colony formation and wound healing assays were performed on Huh-7 cells cocultured with syncytia.

Introduction: Giant basal cell carcinoma (GBCC) is a rare and aggressive subtype of basal cell carcinoma (BCC), characterized by a diameter of ≥5 cm and a potential for deep tissue invasion. This study aimed to present our experience with the surgical management of GBCC in the maxillofacial region, focusing on resection and immediate reconstruction strategies.

Methods: We conducted a retrospective analysis of 5926 patients with BCC in the maxillofacial region from 2010 to 2020, with a specific emphasis on 32 patients diagnosed with GBCC.
