ABSTRACT During the period of 10 years, we have received 19 ameloblastoma specimens for opinion. The purpose of this report is that many studies on ameloblastoma were published from western countries, but not a single study from this region, which is an area of tribal people. Hence, this study is taken up to analyze for various parameters, and to compared with the western countries studies and also to inform the new and rare findings which is not yet published that is, the malignant ameloblastoma metastasis in soft tissue with intercellular bridges. Specimens were processed for macroscopic and microscopic analysis by routine methods. Majority of analysis were similar to the western countries studies. Malignant ameloblastoma metastasis in soft tissue gave us surprise. Ameloblastoma in tribal people did not have differences with western countries, but we got a new thing which enriches the behavior of malignant ameloblastoma.

Abstract Background The term fibromatosis refers to a spectrum of soft tissue tumors resulting from the unbridled proliferation of fibroblasts, with high infiltrative power. It is a rare neoplasm, with an incidence of about 3 cases per million. Most common sites include the abdominal wall and cavity, chest wall, scapular area, and the limbs, rarely affecting the axilla. Imaging plays a major role in surgical planning and clinical follow-up. Differential diagnosis with other soft tissue tumors may be arduous, but a correct evaluation is fundamental. Case presentation A 33-year-old case is reported for the evaluation of a palpable hardened and immobile left axillary nodule. The ultrasound reveals a solid, elongated, heterogeneous, poorly delimited, infiltrative lesion observed in the left axillary hollow, with no detectable flow in the color Doppler mode. At magnetic resonance imaging, the same elongated and expansive lesion was better defined, revealing its irregular contours, alternating areas of hypo- and hyperintense on T2, heterogeneous enhancement, and no signs of signal decay on in- and out-of-phase sequences. Due to its growth and local invasion potential, surgical excision was performed. The microscopic analysis showed long and uniform spindle cell fascicles, with clear cytoplasm and wavy nuclei, arranged in different directions, included in collagen stroma. Immunohistochemistry was positive for nuclear beta-catenin, confirming the diagnosis of fibromatosis. Conclusion Imaging methods reflect the heterogeneous nature of the lesion. This study demonstrates the importance of using a multidisciplinary approach in addition to imaging tests and histopathological study for better diagnosis and therapeutic planning. The high infiltrative power always must be reminded of, since it affects young patients and diagnosis delay can lead to mutilating surgeries.

AbstractFood products suitable for Muslim consumers should be halal certified, particularly when their origins or production processes are doubtful. However, there is a multiplicity of halal standards. This situation may generate confusion, particularly for producers in Western countries who would like to certify their products in order to export them to Islamic countries. This study analyzed the reasons underlying the multiplicity of standards and reviewed the attempts of harmonization over time. Then, the case study of application to slaughterhouses was considered, by comparing four different halal standards (namely GSO 993:2015, OIC/SMIIC 1:2019, HAS 23103:2012, and MS 1500:2019) representative of different geographic areas. Animal stunning was critically examined, comparing tradition with modernity. The study evidenced that the basic requirements related to slaughtering are common to all the halal standards considered, but several differences occur in more specific details. Only a close collaboration between the authorities of all the countries involved in issuing halal certifications will lead to a homogeneous regulatory framework with unified certification and accreditation procedures, increasingly required in a globalized market.

Abstract Different procedures are proposed in the literature for the rehydration of dried-out specimens. These procedures vary greatly in their efficiency and application. This work describes a new procedure that is inspired by the literature but that avoids heating the specimens. This method was applied to reconditioning dried-out specimens from a historical collection (Swiss freshwater fishes, bird brains, and bird eyes), stored at the Naturhistorisches Museum Bern in Switzerland. The procedure consists of five steps. The first step is the softening of hardened soft tissue with benzaldehyde and demineralized water. The second step is an indirect rehydration with water vapor. The third step is a chemically induced direct hydration using a trisodium phosphate solution that allows the specimen to swell in size before being washed with water to remove all additives. Finally, the rehydrated specimen is transferred into new preserving fluid. Because the dehydrating properties of ethanol as a preservative are problematic, this paper presents the results of an experimental case study using a glycerol solution as a preservation fluid.

Compressive Myelopathy

Cervical compressive myelopathy commonly occurs due to degeneration or disc herniation. The persons with cervical meylopathy are usually advised for surgical decompression. Person with signs of cervical cord compression was treated with myofacial release and found to be improved in signs as well as the symptoms. Total 34 numbers of similar cases (31 males and 3 females) age ranging from 25 to 61 years were treated by myofascial release of periscapular soft tissue structures over last 2 & ½ years (2017 to 2020) and found to return back to their activities after 6 months of follow up.

The Relationship

This study investigated the relationship between financial development and economic growth in Hungary using a case study approach. Majority of previous studies on the same or similar topic have so far used regression and or econometric methodologies to examine the nature of the relationship between financial development and economic growth. Not a single study the author is aware of used a case study approach to discuss the relationship between the two variables. It is against this background that the author decided to use the case study approach that allows the author to really deepen an understanding of the relationship between the two variables in Hungary. Apart from being narrowly focused on regression or econometric approaches, previous studies on the same or similar topic in Hungary excluded a broad range of financial development variables. The current study departs from these previous studies as it used a case study approach and taken into account a broad range of financial development variables. From the trend analysis done in section 3, it appears that the relationship between financial development and growth in Hungary during the period under study is not clear. A definite and clear cut conclusion could not be reached about the relationship between the two variables in Hungary hence the use of econometric data analysis approaches in conjuction with the case study approach is recommended.

Sinonasal alveolar soft-part sarcoma (ASPS) is a rare malignant disease that comprises 0.4% to 1.2% of all soft-tissue sarcomas. Alveolar soft-part sarcoma is usually difficult to diagnose because it has many clinical and pathological mimickers. In this case study, ASPS occurred in the olfactory cleft, representing the second case in this location in the literature. This article presents the clinical presentation, radiologic, and histopathological case, and reviews the literature regarding the differentials.

Soft tissue shadows are commonly seen on pelvic radiographs, and radiographers may overlook or are unaware that these shadows could be artefacts. In a case study, shadow of a penis superimposed with the fracture lines at pubic ramus and it was questioned whether a fracture of ramus ischio-pubis is present. Further radiographic views were performed to demonstrate the fractures without any artefact. There are other possible pelvic artefacts that may be seen and neglected on pelvic radiographs, thus it may lead to misdiagnosis of pelvic fracture. This essay should be served as a reminder for radiographers to recognize artefacts and differentiate it from pathology.
