The Changing Clinicopathological Profile of Ameloblastoma: An update

Abstract Intracranial meningiomas are the most common extra-axial tumors, representing 15% of all brain tumors. Arising from the arachnoid cells, and common in middle-aged women, 90% meningiomas are benign. We conducted a 10-year study on 183 cases of intracranial meningiomas and observed a lower and decreasing trend; the mean age was 43.3 years but there was also a significant incidence in young females. Parasagittal/falx (29%), sphenoid ridge, convexity meningiomas and middle cranial fossa locations were more common. Histopathologically, meningothelial meningioma was the most common. Benign (WHO I) tumors were found in above 90%, atypical (WHO II) in 5% cases, and malignant (WHO III) in < 4% patients. Most patients underwent Simpsons Grade I excision (35.6%) with dural reconstruction because of late presentations. Posterior fossa meningiomas were mostly benign, while intraventricular ones were mostly malignant with highest postoperation mortality. Mortality in operated patients was 9.8% but was highest in anterior fossa tumors (12.5%).

Treatment Objective

Introduction: Wilms tumor is the most common primary malignant renal tumor of childhood. It is important to pick up the children with wilms tumor earlier as early stages has excellent outcomes after treatment. Objective : To find out the common clinical presentations and pathological profile of Wilms tumor in children. Methods and Materials : A hospital based prospective study done with twenty diagnosed patients of Wilms tumour enrolled from department of Pediatric haemato-oncology, BSMMU, Dhaka in the period between January to December 2008. Results- The peak incidence of Wilms tumor was in 1 to 5 years age group (80%,n=16). Median age at presentation was 49 months with male: female ratio 1.8:1.The most common presentation was abdominal swelling (80%,n=16),followed by flank mass (75%,n=15), abdominal pain (55%,n=11), haematuria (15%,n=3), hypertension (10%,n=2). Thirteen raised from right kidney, ratio of right to left involvement 1.8:1. Histologically 13(65%) patients had triphasic histology having blastemal, stromal and epithelial elements, 7(35%) was biphasic having blastema and epithelia. All had favourable histological pattern. Most patients presented in stage III (55%,n=11) followed by stage II (25%,n=5), Stage IV(10%,n=2), Stage I(10%,n=2). No bilateral presentation. Conclusions : Most of the patients of Wilms tumor presented within 1 to 5 years of age(80%) with abdominal distension(80%) and flank mass(75%), few associated with haematuria(15%) and hypertension(10%). Histologically all were favourable and maximum presented in stage III (55%) followed by stage II(25%). DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/jbcps.v32i1.21015 J Bangladesh Coll Phys Surg 2014; 32: 5-8

Background: Intrauterine foetal death is an immense emotional burden for everyone concerned specially in the last trimester. Therefore, it is very important to find out, what has happened. Evaluation of clinical and pathological profile of women presenting with intrauterine foetal death has evoked great interest among the obstetricians.Methods: The prospective observational study was conducted in the department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology N.S.C.B. Medical College Jabalpur during 1st June 2012 to 31st October 2013. A total of 155 intrauterine foetal death subjects admitted during this period were evaluated. Clinically and laboratory profile of subjects done. Histomorphology of placenta was performed in each case. Full HPR finding were then correlated with clinical and laboratory findings of subjects. Results: Poor vascularity of villi and fever were significantly associated (p<0.01). Hypertension and Convulsion and fibrinoid necrosis, syncytial knot and placental infarcts were significantly associated (p<0.001) Premature placenta is associated with cytotrophoblastic layer (p<0.01). Conversely post mature placenta is associated with calcification and infarction. (p<0.01). Conclusions: All placentae associated with foetal death have either gross or microscopic abnormalities. Present study is a step towards understanding and extrapolating the already known causes of intrauterine foetal death in the perspective of Jabalpur and its adjoining districts.

Brain Radiation

Ca cervix is a common gynaecological cancer in daily practice but secondaries in brain after ca cervix as primary is a rare occurrence. As the survival of ca cervix patients has improved, we are able to encounter secondaries in unusual sites like brain. Prognosis is usually dismal due to presence of extra cranial mets along with brain secondaries which limits the use of new radiotherapy techniques like Stereotactic radiosurgery. We present a case series of five patients who presented to us post radical treatment of cancer cervix and treated with whole brain radiation therapy and best supportive care.
