The document discusses principles of biopsies. It begins by stating that the purpose of a biopsy is to confirm a suspected diagnosis, and that it is not a substitute for other diagnostic tests and evaluations. It provides indications for biopsies, such as aggressive bone or soft tissue lesions, large or deep soft tissue lesions, or unclear diagnoses in symptomatic patients. It notes when biopsies are not necessarily indicated, such as for asymptomatic or likely benign lesions. It then describes different types of biopsies and provides guidance on open incisional biopsies, including using a longitudinal incision and not exposing neurovascular structures.

Looking for a definitive diagnosis is the aim of biopsy. Types of Biopsy include incisional, excisional, drill, fine needle and frozen section biopsy.

MANAGEMENT OF ATRIOVENTRICULAR CONDUCTION BLOCK.pdfJim Jacob Roy
Cardiac conduction defects can occur due to various causes.
Atrioventricular conduction blocks ( AV blocks ) are classified into 3 types.
This document describes the acute management of AV block.

Chemical basis and signal transduction mechanisms for each taste
Taste Threshold and Index:
Taste threshold values for Sweet (sucrose), Salty (NaCl), Sour (HCl), and Bitter (Quinine)

Taste Blindness:
Inability to taste certain substances, particularly thiourea compounds
Example: Phenylthiocarbamide

Features: Taste pores, Taste hairs/microvilli, and Taste nerve fibers
Location of Taste Buds:
Found in papillae of the tongue (Fungiform, Circumvallate, Foliate)
Also present on the palate, tonsillar pillars, epiglottis, and proximal esophagus
Mechanism of Taste Stimulation:
Interaction of taste substances with receptors on microvilli
Signal transduction pathways for Umami, Sweet, Bitter, Sour, and Salty tastes
Taste Sensitivity and Adaptation:
Decrease in sensitivity with age
Rapid adaptation of taste sensation
Role of Saliva in Taste:
Dissolution of tastants to reach receptors
Washing away the stimulus
Taste Preferences and Aversions:
Mechanisms behind taste preference and aversion
Influence of receptors and neural pathways
Impact of Sensory Nerve Damage:
Degeneration of taste buds if the sensory nerve fiber is cut
Abnormalities of Taste Detection:
Conditions: Ageusia, Hypogeusia, Dysgeusia (parageusia)
Causes: Nerve damage, neurological disorders, infections, poor oral hygiene, adverse drug effects, deficiencies, aging, tobacco use, altered neurotransmitter levels
Neurotransmitters and Taste Threshold:
Effects of serotonin (5-HT) and norepinephrine (NE) on taste sensitivity
Supertasters:
25% of the population with heightened sensitivity to taste, especially bitterness
Increased number of fungiform papillae

Disruption of blood supply to lung alveoli due to blockage of one or more pulmonary blood vessels is called as Pulmonary thromboembolism. In this presentation we will discuss its causes, types and its management in depth.
Anti ulcer drugs and their Advance pharmacology ||
Anti-ulcer drugs are medications used to prevent and treat ulcers in the stomach and upper part of the small intestine (duodenal ulcers). These ulcers are often caused by an imbalance between stomach acid and the mucosal lining, which protects the stomach lining.
||Scope: Overview of various classes of anti-ulcer drugs, their mechanisms of action, indications, side effects, and clinical considerations.

2. Introduction
Purpose of the biopsy is to confirm a suspected diagnosis
The biopsy is not a substitute for a thorough history,
physical exam, and laboratory investigation
• prerequisites for a biopsy
• CBC, platelets, coagulation studies
• cross-sectional imaging to evaluate local anatomy
• treatment center performing biopsy must be capable of proper
diagnosis and treatment
2
3. Indications for biopsy
• aggressive bone or soft tissue lesions
• soft tissue lesions larger than 5cm, deep to
fascia, or overlying bone/neurovascular
structures
• unclear diagnosis in a symptomatic patient
• solitary bone lesions in a patient with history
of carcinoma
Indications
3
4. When a biopsy is not indicated
asymptomatic latent bone lesions or a symptomatic active
bone lesions which appear entirely benign on imaging don't
necessarily need a biopsy
soft tissue lesion which are completely benign on MRI don't
necessarily need a biopsy (e.g. lipoma, hemangioma)
Types of biopsy
Fine Needle Aspiration (FNA)
provides cytologic (cellular) specimen
frequently used for carcinoma
not typically used for sarcoma
4
5. Types of biopsy
5
Core biopsy (Tru-cut)
• allow for tumor structural
examination
• can evaluate both the
cytologic and stromal
elements of the tumor
• frequently used for soft
tissue sarcoma
• 85-95% accuracy in
diagnosis
Incisional biopsy
• small surgical incision
carefully placed to access
tumor without
contamination of critical
structures
Excisional biopsy
• select indications: small,
superficial soft tissue
masses
6. • Principles of the open incisional biopsy 6
• use longitudinal incision in the extremities
• allows for extension of the incision for definitive management
Incision
• do not expose neurovascular structures
• all tissue exposed during the biopsy is considered contaminated with tumor
• maintain meticulous hemostasis
• post-operative hematomas are considered contaminated with tumor
• release tourniquet prior to wound closure
Approach
7. Biopsy
• perform through the involved compartment of the tumor
• for bone lesions with a soft tissue mass, it is ok to perform
the biopsy using the soft tissue mass
Closure
• if using a drain, bring drain out of the skin in line with
surgical incision
• allows drain site to be removed with definitive surgical
extensile incision
