Desmoplastic ameloblastoma of maxilla: a case report
2010
Ameloblastoma is the most common neoplasm affecting the jaws, arising from the odontogenic epithelium. Despite its locally aggressive nature, it is considered to be benign. The chief histopathological variants of ameloblastoma are the follicular and plexiform types, followed by the acanthomatous and granular cell types. Uncommon variants include desmoplastic, basal cell, clear cell ameloblastoma, keratoameloblastoma and papilliferous keratoameloblastoma. When the desmoplastic type co-exists with other types, it is called as “hybrid” ameloblastoma. There are significant anatomic, histopathological and radiological differences between desmoplastic ameloblastoma and the classical type. The pur…
Distribution of factor XIIIa containing cells and collage nous components in radicular cysts: histochemical and immunohistochemical study
2011
Objective: 1) To differentiate various connective tissue layers in radicular cysts 2) To find the correlation between FXIIIa containing cells and fibrosis. Factor XIII, fibrin stabilizing factor, stabilizes the clot for blood coagulation and is also responsible for connective tissue organization in healing and tissue repair. FXIIIa has an important role during the process of fibrosis in various lesions, so we conducted a study to find its role in radicular cyst. Study Design: 10 cases of radicular cyst, reported in our hospital were selected. Clinical and follow up data of those cases were collected from the archives. Material and Methods: Histochemical analysis with Masson’s trichrome was …
