Skin Cancer01:30

Skin Cancer

Skin cancer is a type of cancer that occurs when there is an abnormal growth of skin cells, usually triggered by damage to the DNA within the skin cells. It is primarily caused by exposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun or artificial sources like tanning beds. Skin cancer is the most common type of cancer worldwide, and its incidence continues to rise.
Basal Cell Carcinoma (BCC): BCC is the most common type of skin cancer, accounting for about 80% of cases. It typically develops in...
Rous Sarcoma Virus (RSV) and Cancer01:03

Rous Sarcoma Virus (RSV) and Cancer

Rous Sarcoma virus or RSV was discovered by F. Peyton Rous in the year 1911 as a filterable transmissible agent that could cause tumors in chickens. He won a Nobel Prize for this discovery in 1966. His experiments clearly demonstrated that some cancers could be caused by infectious agents and led to the discovery of many more cancer-causing viruses in animals as well as humans.
RSV is a retrovirus that contains two copies of a plus-strand  RNA genome. Its genome consists of four main open...
Bone Cells and Tissue01:30

Bone Cells and Tissue

Bones contain a relatively small number of cells entrenched in a matrix of organic and inorganic components. Although bone cells compose only a small amount of the bone volume, they are crucial to its function. Four types of cells are found within the bone tissue— osteoblasts, osteocytes, osteogenic cells, and osteoclasts.
Osteoblasts and Osteocytes
The osteoblast is the bone cell responsible for forming new bone tissue. It is found in the growing portions of bone, including the periosteum and...

Area of Science:

  • Oral pathology
  • Odontogenic neoplasms
  • Epithelial tumors

Background:

  • Squamous odontogenic tumor (SOT) is a rare benign epithelial odontogenic neoplasm.
  • SOTs are uncommon and can present with varied clinical and radiographic features.
  • Understanding SOT characteristics is crucial for accurate diagnosis and management.

Observation:

  • A 24-year-old male presented with a radiolucent lesion near the right maxillary canine.
  • The lesion's association with the canine tooth was noted.
  • Initial clinical presentation suggested a possible odontogenic cyst or tumor.

Findings:

  • Histologic examination of biopsy material confirmed the diagnosis of squamous odontogenic tumor.
  • The tumor exhibited characteristic benign epithelial odontogenic neoplasm features.
  • Radiographic and morphologic analyses were consistent with SOT.

Implications:

  • This case contributes to the understanding of squamous odontogenic tumor presentation.
  • Accurate diagnosis relies on integrating clinical, radiographic, and histopathologic findings.
  • Further research into SOT behavior and treatment is warranted.
