It helps to bring to mind lots of different conditions which could be potential causes.
It can also be helpful in formulating a differential diagnosis for patients where the diagnosis is not clear.
This document discusses neoplasms (tumors) of the salivary glands. It begins by describing the major and minor salivary glands. The most common benign tumors are pleomorphic adenoma, Warthin's tumor, and oncocytoma. The most common malignant tumors are mucoepidermoid carcinoma and adenoid cystic carcinoma. Factors like size and location of the gland affect likelihood of malignancy. Surgery is the main treatment and complications can include facial nerve paralysis, fluid collections, and Frey's syndrome.
This document discusses dentigerous cysts, including their definition, pathogenesis, clinical features, radiological features, histological features, investigation, treatment, and potential complications. A dentigerous cyst is an odontogenic cyst that forms around the crown of an unerupted tooth due to fluid accumulation between the reduced enamel epithelium and enamel surface. Clinically, they usually appear as asymptomatic swellings but can cause expansion of the bone. Radiographically, they appear as well-defined radiolucencies that surround the crown of an unerupted tooth. Treatment involves surgical removal of the cyst lining either through enucleation or marsupialization along with removal of the associated tooth. Complications can include
This document provides information on tumors of the salivary glands. It discusses the anatomy and histology of salivary glands, classification of salivary gland tumors, and specifics on certain tumor types including pleomorphic adenoma and Warthin's tumor. Pleomorphic adenoma is the most common benign salivary gland tumor, characterized by epithelial and mesenchymal differentiation. Warthin's tumor commonly occurs bilaterally in the parotid glands of older smoking males. The document covers epidemiology, etiology, histogenesis, clinical features, investigation, pathology and treatment of various salivary gland tumors.

Salivary glands Disorders and management.Manish Shetty
1. The parotid gland is the largest salivary gland located below and in front of the ear. The submandibular gland is located beneath the jawbone. Saliva produced by these glands contains enzymes and antibodies that support oral health.
2. Sialography uses dye and x-rays to visualize the salivary ducts and identify any obstructions like stones. Benign tumors and infections are common salivary gland conditions. Surgery may be used to treat tumors or remove obstructions in the ducts.
3. The most common salivary gland tumor is the pleomorphic adenoma, which is generally benign. Sjögren's syndrome is an autoimmune condition that
A cyst is an epithelium-lined sac containing fluid or semisolid material. In the formation of a cyst, the epithelial cells first proliferate and later undergo degeneration and liquefaction. The liquefied material exerts equal pressure on the walls of the cyst from within. Cysts grow by expansion and thus displace the adjacent teeth by pressure. May can produce expansion of the cortical bone. On a radiograph, the radiolucency of a cyst is usually bordered by a radiopaque periphery of dense sclerotic bone. The radiolucency may be unilocular or multilocular. Odontogenic cysts are those which arise from the epithelium associated with the development of teeth. The source of epithelium is from the enamel organ, the reduced enamel epithelium, the cell rests of Malassez or the remnants of the dental lamina.
Neurofibroma is a benign tumor that arises from the connective tissue of nerves. It consists of neural and fibrous elements. Neurofibromas can be single or multiple, and form fusiform swellings along nerves. They can occur in cranial, spinal, or peripheral nerves. The main types are nodular, plexiform, generalized (von Recklinghausen's disease), elephantiatic, and pachydermatocoele. Nodular neurofibromas commonly affect peripheral nerves in adults as single, firm nodules. Plexiform neurofibromas often involve the face and can cause vision problems or bone erosion. Generalized neurofibromatosis is an inherited condition with

This document discusses the importance of conducting a thorough clinical examination for medically compromised patients. It involves taking a detailed medical history, performing a physical exam, and considering any relevant lab tests or medical consultations needed to assess a patient's health risks. The medical history covers symptoms, medical conditions, medications, and social factors. The physical exam checks vital signs and examines major organ systems. Laboratory tests and medical consultations can aid in risk assessment. Proper risk assessment is key to determining if dental treatment can be conducted safely and what modifications may be needed based on the patient's health status and procedures planned. The overall goal is to minimize health risks through modified treatment approaches.

Sézary syndrome is an aggressive form of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma characterized by erythroderma (red, scaly skin over large areas of the body), enlarged lymph nodes, and the presence of malignant T-cells known as Sézary cells in the blood, skin, and lymph nodes. If left untreated, Sézary syndrome can be fatal within 3 years. Treatment options include chemotherapy, immunotherapy, targeted therapy, extracorporeal photopheresis, radiation therapy, retinoids, and phototherapy, with the choice of treatment depending on disease stage, symptoms, and tumor burden.
The document discusses tumor lysis syndrome, which occurs when large numbers of tumor cells are destroyed rapidly, releasing their contents into the bloodstream. This can cause hyperuricemia, hyperkalemia, hyperphosphatemia, and hypocalcemia, potentially leading to acidosis and renal failure. It also summarizes paraneoplastic syndromes, which are symptom complexes not directly caused by the tumor's location or metastasis. Common types include endocrine, neurological, mucocutaneous, and hematological syndromes. The grading and staging of cancers is also summarized, with grading based on differentiation and growth rate, and staging assessing tumor size, lymph node involvement, and metastasis.
Importance of investigations in HOMOEOPATHYRashmiVerma72
Investigations play an important role in homeopathy by helping to ascertain the accurate diagnosis, pathology, prognosis, and line of treatment. Physical examinations and laboratory/radiological tests can detect underlying causes, disease processes, and structural changes, which aids in differentiating common and uncommon symptoms. Knowledge of pathology and diagnosis allows homeopaths to understand the functional disturbances that precede structural changes in chronic diseases. A variety of blood, imaging, endoscopy, and other investigations are commonly used in homeopathic case analysis and management.
Oncology is that department of medicine that deals with tumors. A medical professional who practices oncology is an oncologist.This includes the detection of any cancer in person , therapies, post care of cancer patients after treatments in the superspeciality hospitals
This document presents a case of neurocysticercosis in a 38-year-old male. On examination, he had decreased consciousness, unequal pupils, spastic muscles, and decreased strength. Investigations showed cysts in the brain and spleen. Neurocysticercosis is caused by the pork tapeworm Taenia solium and can infect the brain, eye, muscle or subcutaneous tissue. Symptoms depend on the location of cysts and include seizures, headaches, strokes and hydrocephalus. Diagnosis involves blood tests, imaging and biopsy. Treatment involves anti-parasitic drugs and corticosteroids.
What is Informed Consent?
Informed consent is the process by which a patient voluntarily confirms his/her willing participation in an operation after having been informed about all the aspects of the operation that is its benefits, its prognosis, and complications
Informed consent must be in written form and documented with the patients signature and date of consent
This document summarizes the key anatomical and histological features of the normal heart and mechanisms of various cardiac diseases. It describes that the normal heart weighs 250-350g and has thicker left ventricular walls. The myocytes that make up the heart have specific organelles and structures. Various valves and blood vessels supply the heart. Cardiac dysfunction can arise from failures of contraction, flow obstruction, regurgitation, conduction disorders, or discontinuity of circulation. Heart failure results from the heart's inability to pump sufficient blood. Hypertrophy is an adaptive response to pressure/volume overload but causes abnormal tissue deposition over time. Congenital heart diseases include defects causing left-right or right-left shunts and obstructions. I

8 Surprising Reasons To Meditate 40 Minutes A Day That Can Change Your Life.pptxHolistified Wellness
We’re talking about Vedic Meditation, a form of meditation that has been around for at least 5,000 years. Back then, the people who lived in the Indus Valley, now known as India and Pakistan, practised meditation as a fundamental part of daily life. This knowledge that has given us yoga and Ayurveda, was known as Veda, hence the name Vedic. And though there are some written records, the practice has been passed down verbally from generation to generation.

Cell Therapy Expansion and Challenges in Autoimmune DiseaseHealth Advances
There is increasing confidence that cell therapies will soon play a role in the treatment of autoimmune disorders, but the extent of this impact remains to be seen. Early readouts on autologous CAR-Ts in lupus are encouraging, but manufacturing and cost limitations are likely to restrict access to highly refractory patients. Allogeneic CAR-Ts have the potential to broaden access to earlier lines of treatment due to their inherent cost benefits, however they will need to demonstrate comparable or improved efficacy to established modalities.
In addition to infrastructure and capacity constraints, CAR-Ts face a very different risk-benefit dynamic in autoimmune compared to oncology, highlighting the need for tolerable therapies with low adverse event risk. CAR-NK and Treg-based therapies are also being developed in certain autoimmune disorders and may demonstrate favorable safety profiles. Several novel non-cell therapies such as bispecific antibodies, nanobodies, and RNAi drugs, may also offer future alternative competitive solutions with variable value propositions.
Widespread adoption of cell therapies will not only require strong efficacy and safety data, but also adapted pricing and access strategies. At oncology-based price points, CAR-Ts are unlikely to achieve broad market access in autoimmune disorders, with eligible patient populations that are potentially orders of magnitude greater than the number of currently addressable cancer patients. Developers have made strides towards reducing cell therapy COGS while improving manufacturing efficiency, but payors will inevitably restrict access until more sustainable pricing is achieved.
Despite these headwinds, industry leaders and investors remain confident that cell therapies are poised to address significant unmet need in patients suffering from autoimmune disorders. However, the extent of this impact on the treatment landscape remains to be seen, as the industry rapidly approaches an inflection point.

Local Advanced Lung Cancer: Artificial Intelligence, Synergetics, Complex Sys...Oleg Kshivets
Overall life span (LS) was 1671.7±1721.6 days and cumulative 5YS reached 62.4%, 10 years – 50.4%, 20 years – 44.6%. 94 LCP lived more than 5 years without cancer (LS=2958.6±1723.6 days), 22 – more than 10 years (LS=5571±1841.8 days). 67 LCP died because of LC (LS=471.9±344 days). AT significantly improved 5YS (68% vs. 53.7%) (P=0.028 by log-rank test). Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: N0-N12, T3-4, blood cell circuit, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells-CC and blood cells subpopulations), LC cell dynamics, recalcification time, heparin tolerance, prothrombin index, protein, AT, procedure type (P=0.000-0.031). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and N0-12 (rank=1), thrombocytes/CC (rank=2), segmented neutrophils/CC (3), eosinophils/CC (4), erythrocytes/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), stick neutrophils/CC (8), leucocytes/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (error=0.000; area under ROC curve=1.0).

2. WHAT IT IS?
• A surgical sieve is useful when trying to
answer questions on the cause of a sign or
symptom.
• It helps to bring to mind lots of different
conditions which could be potential causes.
• It can also be helpful in formulating a
differential diagnosis for patients where the
diagnosis is not clear.
3. • A sieve allows you to gather your thoughts,
working from first principles, and come up
with at least some sensible statements. When
you answer a question, you should really talk
about the most common things first and the
rarities at the end.
• One disadvantage of using a sieve is that you
may not be able to rapidly reorganise your
thoughts in this way, but still it is useful when
all else fails and is invaluable in essay writing.
4. THE AETIOLOGICAL SIEVE
“ CAT IN CAN MED DIP”Congenital
Acquired
Traumatic
Inflammatory (physical, chemical, infective)
Neoplastic (benign or malignant, primary or secondary)
Circulatory
Autoimmune
Nutritional
Metabolic
Endocrine
Drugs
Degenerative
Iatrogenic
Psychosomatic
5. THE ANATOMICAL SIEVE
• This can apply to anatomical sites, structures or tissue
types.
• If asked ‘What are the causes of mechanical bowel
obstruction?’, you could say ‘Adhesions.’ This is a
correct answer but an incorrect way of saying it.
• Start by saying that the bowel is a structure consisting
of several anatomical regions and hence obstruction
can occur anywhere along its length, for example,
stomach outflow obstruction, small bowel obstruction
and large bowel obstruction.
6. • The examiner will then usually pick one route
and lead you along it.
• If writing an essay, you obviously need to
discuss all three.
• Then, add that the bowel is a hollow tube, and
like any hollow tube (cf. ureters) it can become
blocked at three sites: from outside the tube
pressing in (extramural), within the wall of the
tube (intramural) and within the lumen of the
tube (luminal). Where appropriate, answers
should be structured in this way.
8. GENERAL AND SPECIFIC
• Tell me about postoperative complications.
• Here, we can use two types of classification: one
applies to the type of complication, and the other
gives a time scale.
• Postoperative complications can be generalized,
i.e. applying to any operation (such as the effects
of anaesthesia), or specific, i.e. applying to a
particular operation (such as damage to the
recurrent laryngeal nerve in thyroidectomy).
• Once classified into general and specific the
complications can be broken down further into
time scales. These complications can be
immediate, early or late.
9. Once you use these principles, it becomes easy
to answer most questions logically.
For example: ‘What are the causes of
haematuria?’ The causes can be generalized
(e.g. a bleeding disorder or use of
anticoagulants) or specific, relating to any of
the anatomical structures in the region. The
following structures (starting from the top) are
part of the urinary tract:
11. TISSUE TYPES
• Try to list the causes of a lump in the groin
A good method is to use tissue types, i.e. say that this lump
can arise from any of the tissue types in this region
Tissue type Example
Skin Sebaceous cyst
Adipose tissue Lipoma
Connective tissue Fibroma
Lymphatics Enlarged lymph node
Blood vessels Saphena varix, femoral artery aneurysm
Inguinal canal Inguinal hernia, hydrocoele of the cord
Femoral canal Femoral hernia
Testes Undescended testes
12.
13. “MAGIC ADDITIVE”
M - Metabolic - e.g. gout, hypoglycemia
A- Autoimmune - e.g. lupus, Crohn's disease
G- Genetic - e.g. cystic fibrosis
I - Infective (bacterial, viral, fungal, protozoal,
parasitic) - e.g. gastroenteritis, pneumonia
C- Cancer - e.g. lung cancer, lymphoma
14. A- Acquired (environmental factors) - e.g. COPD,
asbestosis
D - Degenerative - e.g. osteoarthritis, dementia
D- Drugs - e.g. penicillin allergy, Clostridium
difficile infection after antibiotics
I - Insanity - psychiatric conditions e.g. depression,
factitious diarrhea
T- Trauma - gun shot wound, surgical trauma
I - Idiopathic - conditions with unknown cause e.g.
idiopathic intracranial hypertension
V- Vascular - e.g. stroke, angina
E- Endocrine - e.g. diabetes, acromegally
25. INVESTIGATIONS
Always break down investigations in the following
manner:
1. Simple urine and faecal tests (e.g. urine dipstix,
microscopy and culture, pregnancy tests, faecal
occult blood)
2. Haematological tests (routine, e.g. FBC, or
special, e.g. tumour markers)
3. Radiological tests (e.g. CXR, ultrasound or CT)
4. Special investigations (e.g. gastroscopy, V/Q
scans)
26. MANAGEMENT
• ‘Discuss the treatment of benign prostatic
hypertrophy’ is a different question from ‘Discuss
the management of benign prostatic
hypertrophy.’
• Management involves discussing all of the steps
that deal with a clinical problem, including the
history, examination, investigations, formation of
a diagnosis and treatment.
• When discussing treatment you can again break
down your answer into subheadings.
27. • For example: treatment can be conservative, medical
or surgical.
• For example, in this case:
Conservative.
This usually means ruling out cancer. A prostate specific
antigen (PSA) 4 and a normal examination would help
the doctor reassure the patient and a policy of watchful
waiting may be adopted until the symptoms get worse.
Medical. For example, drugs such as 1-adreno-
receptor blockers or 5--reductase inhibitors.
Surgical. For example, trans-urethral resection of the
prostate (TURP).

ADHESION- an abnormal union of membranous surfaces due to inflammation or injury
Answering an Essay
Essay questions nowadays are not common, but if they do feature tend to be quite generalized; for example, ‘Minimal access surgery — discuss.’ There will, however, always be the odd question based on a detailed knowledge of one condition
The following is a guide for the headings you can use in writing such an essay; some surgeons refer to this as the pathological sieve.
Definition
Aetiology (incidence, age, sex, geography)/risk factors
Histology (macro and micro)
Clinical features (signs and symptoms)
Diagnosis (and differential)
Clinical staging (if appropriate)
Investigations/treatment/management
Complications
Prognosis
A saphena varix, or a saphenous varix is a dilation of the saphenous vein at its junction with the femoral vein in the groin.
History of a Lump
Surgery is full of lumps. No matter where the lump is, there are only five questions you need to remember when taking the history of a lump:
When and how did you first notice the lump?
How has the lump changed since you first not
noticed it?
What symptoms does it cause you?
Have you got any more or have you had this
before?
What do you think it is?
SIADH- SYNDROME OF INAPPROPRIATE ANTI-DIURETIC HORMONE PRODUCTION
Management involves discussing all of the steps that deal with a clinical problem including the history, examination investigations, formation of a diagnosis and treatment
Remember that management depends on diagnosis and that diagnosis depends on history, examination and special investigations. Therefore ‘management’ refers to all of the steps of clinical assessment and investigation as well as treatment.
For example, if i asked how you would manage a case of acute cholecystitis, you need to say that you would give the patient adequate analgesia, arrange admission to a surgical bed, put up a drip, keep nil by mouth, etc., before talking about liver function tests or ultrasound scans (which would not normally be available immediately).
