Maxillofacial Squamous Cell Carcinoma With Cervical Metastasis and Tuberculous Lymphadenitis: Diagnostic Dilemmas and Clinical Insights. [PDF]

Cancer Rep (Hoboken)
ABSTRACT Background Maxillofacial squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) typically metastasizes to lymph nodes, yet coexisting tuberculous lymphadenitis is extraordinarily rare, posing diagnostic challenges. Case A 68‐year‐old female with right maxillofacial SCC and ipsilateral lymphadenopathy underwent radical resection and selective neck dissection after ...

Extensive Lymphadenopathy in an HIV-Negative Patient With Multidrug-Resistant Tuberculosis. [PDF]

Respirol Case Rep
Extensive lymphadenopathy is uncommon in HIV‐negative patients with tuberculosis. This clinical image highlights the striking CT appearance of extensive extrapulmonary lymph node involvement in symptomatic multidrug‐resistant tuberculosis, even in the absence of HIV infection. ABSTRACT Tuberculous lymphadenitis is generally more severe in patients with

Tuberculosis Masquerading as Behcet's Disease-Pseudo Bechet's Syndrome: A Case-Based Review of Literature. [PDF]

Respirol Case Rep
We report a case of recurrent oral/scrotal ulcers with systemic symptoms in a 33‐year‐old man masked pulmonary tuberculosis: imaging showed cavitary consolidations with effusion, and thoracoscopic pleural biopsy demonstrated acid‐fast bacilli. Anti‐tubercular therapy led to complete resolution, underscoring TB as a key Behçet's mimic to exclude before ...

Clinical periodontal diagnosis

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract Periodontal diseases include pathological conditions elicited by the presence of bacterial biofilms leading to a host response. In the diagnostic process, clinical signs such as bleeding on probing, development of periodontal pockets and gingival recessions, furcation involvement and presence of radiographic bone loss should be assessed prior ...

The role of the host—Neutrophil biology

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract Neutrophilic polymorphonuclear leukocytes (neutrophils) are myeloid cells packed with lysosomal granules (hence also called granulocytes) that contain a formidable antimicrobial arsenal. They are terminally differentiated cells that play a critical role in acute and chronic inflammation, as well as in the resolution of inflammation and wound ...

Multiple surgical radical treatment in axillary lymph nodes: A case report

European Journal of Inflammation, 2019
Lymph node tuberculosis is a common clinical bacterial infectious disease. Regional lymph node tuberculosis is often difficult to cure by surgically radical resection. In addition, its recurrence rate is higher, and it can easily cause lymphatic leakage.

Concentration of lymph node aspirate improves the sensitivity of acid fast smear microscopy for the diagnosis of tuberculous lymphadenitis in Jimma, southwest Ethiopia. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
Tuberculous lymphadenitis (TBLN) is the most common form of extrapulmonary tuberculosis. The cytomorphological features of lymph node smears have reduced specificity for the diagnosis of tuberculosis.
