Haemangiomas of the parotid gland in children
Journal of Maxillofacial Surgery
|November 1, 1977
Abstract:
The authors present the case histories of 40 intraparotid haemangiomas, in 11 of which they achieved healing after radical surgical treatment (parotidectomy). Since 1971, the authors have adopted a conservative approach (not surgical), seeing that most of the cases involute spontaneously up to complete healing. None of the 29 cases treated conservatively has undergone exacerbations of the process, after the age of 6-9 months. No emergency surgical operations were required.

00:59The Parathyroid Glands
The two pairs of parathyroid glands embedded within the posterior surface of the thyroid gland are restricted by a dense capsule around them. These glands comprise two distinct cell populations—parathyroid oxyphil and parathyroid principal cells- pivotal in calcium homeostasis.
Oxyphil cells, whose functions remain elusive, emerge during late puberty, adding a layer of complexity to the parathyroid gland's intricacies. In contrast, principal parathyroid cells undertake a vital role by producing...

Cirrhosis is a chronic, irreversible liver disease characterized by the widespread replacement of healthy liver tissue with fibrotic scar tissue and the formation of regenerative nodules.Etiology of cirrhosisCirrhosis results from sustained liver injury that triggers progressive fibrosis and structural remodeling. The underlying causes are diverse, encompassing common and less frequent clinical conditions. Regardless of the origin, all causes lead to chronic inflammation, hepatocyte loss, and...
