From a review of 94 original cases of mycetoma, a description of the most important histo-pathological features of these tumors is given. The microscopic diagnosis of mycetoma is easy and so is generally the identification of the responsible agent, either a bacteria or a fungus. In every case and specially in atypic ones a mycological study is necessary to ascertain the aetiological diagnosis.

Department of Ultrasound, Ruijin Hospital, Shanghai Jiaotong University School of Medicine, Shanghai, China.
To explore the image features and the diagnostic value of contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) for ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) of the breast. A total of 96 female patients with a solitary and histologically proven DCIS were analyzed retrospectively, and 100 female cases of invasive ductal carcinoma (IDC) lesions were used as the control group. The Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System (BI-RADS) category of breast lesions was assessed according to conventional ultrasound features.

Background: Numerous studies reported that the healing after surgical endodontic retreatment is influenced by multiple factors which include the genetic profile of the patient, epigenetics, and immune responses. The genes which are primarily responsible for the healing potential in different individuals are those which are involved in the regulation of the cytoskeleton and cellular adhesion which subsequently affects bone deposition and healing. Integrins are cell-surface molecules, possess a key role in the cytoskeleton and cellular adhesion.

Inflammatory Breast Cancer (IBC) is a rare and aggressive form of locally advanced breast cancer, classified as stage T4d according to the tumor-node-metastasis staging criteria. This subtype of breast cancer is known for its rapid progression and significantly lower survival rates compared to other forms of breast cancer. Despite its distinctive clinical features outlined by the World Health Organization, the histopathological characteristics of IBC remain not fully elucidated, presenting challenges in its diagnosis and treatment.

Introduction: Oral submucous fibrosis is a progressive oral mucosal condition that is characterized by inflammation and persistent fibrosis. Epithelial Mesenchymal Transition is a crucial molecular event that contributes to tumor progression and fibrosis, with ZEB 1 and its effect on E-cadherin expression being key molecules in the process. Thera are no tissue level studies of these molecules in oral submucous fibrosis.
