Article Synopsis
  • Pyogenic granuloma is a non-cancerous tissue growth that involves blood vessel formation, influenced by markers like CD34 and VEGF that assess blood vessel development.
  • The study aimed to investigate the relationship between the expressions of VEGF and CD34 in pyogenic granuloma tissue from 31 female patients aged 29 to 70 years.
  • Results showed that 55% of patients had positive VEGF expression, and 84% had positive CD34 expression, suggesting these biomarkers are important for understanding blood vessel-related conditions like pyogenic granuloma.

Article Synopsis
  • - Mucin-producing adenocarcinomas (MAC) are rare tumors primarily stemming from salivary glands or having a significant glandular component, diagnosed mainly through histology and immunohistochemistry due to non-specific clinical features.
  • - These cancers often originate as metastases from other organs like the lung, breast, kidney, or colon, and the paper highlights a case of a 51-year-old woman diagnosed with metastatic mucinous adenocarcinoma from the breast, confirmed via tissue biopsy.
  • - Despite being rare, MACs account for about 1% of oral malignant neoplasms that typically affect the gums, so doctors need to thoroughly evaluate oral lesions to ensure correct diagnosis and treatment.

Article Synopsis
  • Pyogenic granuloma is a reactive lesion commonly found in the skin and oral cavity, often misnamed since it's neither pyogenic nor a true granuloma.
  • In the mouth, it typically appears as a bright red, soft growth on the gums or other areas, linked to poor oral hygiene or irritation and characterized by high vascularity.
  • This report discusses a rare case in an 18-year-old female with a long-standing gingival growth that displayed unusual histopathological features, which can complicate diagnosis and treatment.

Article Synopsis
  • Intussusceptive angiogenesis (IA) and intussusceptive lymphangiogenesis (IL) are crucial for vessel growth and form but are under-researched in vessel tumors (VTs).
  • This study examined various benign and malignant VTs using different microscopy techniques to identify the characteristics and formation mechanisms of intussusceptive structures.
  • Results showed these structures in various VTs, suggesting they are involved in the growth and development of these tumors, highlighting their importance for future therapeutic research and molecular studies.

Introduction: Ocular surface squamous neoplasia (OSSN) may have atypical or unusual presentations and may attain large sizes especially in cases of delayed presentation resulting in late diagnosis, treatment, and eventual guarded visual prognosis. We are reporting an interesting cases series of OSSN with variable clinical presentations to highlight the importance of the pre-operative clinical judgment and tissue diagnosis.

Presentation Of Cases: Six patients (4 females and 2 males; mean age 59 years; range 42-79 years) were included with suspicious conjunctival lesions.

Article Synopsis
  • This study investigates the role of collagen and the growth factor TGF-β in the clinical and microscopic characteristics of two types of oral lesions: Pyogenic Granuloma (PG) and Peripheral Ossifying Fibroma (POF).
  • It involves analyzing clinical details (like sex, age, and size) and examining collagen and TGF-β through specific staining methods in the samples selected from both lesions.
  • The results indicate significant differences in collagen distribution and TGF-β expression between PG and POF, suggesting that these lesions may have different biological origins despite both being reactive gingival conditions.
