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...
Arteries of the Head and Neck01:26

Arteries of the Head and Neck

The human body's intricate network of arteries ensures that every organ system receives the necessary oxygen and nutrients for optimal function. The arterial network in the head and neck region is particularly complex, providing vital blood flow to the brain, eyes, and other critical structures. Prominent arteries in this region include the internal carotid arteries and the vertebral arteries.
The internal carotid arteries supply blood to the anterior portion of the cerebrum. They enter the...

    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    Carotid body tumors, once thought benign, can grow aggressively and metastasize. Surgical removal is feasible with low risk, emphasizing clinical diagnosis over biopsy.

    Area of Science:

    • Surgical Oncology
    • Vascular Surgery
    • Head and Neck Surgery

    Background:

    • Carotid body tumors (CBTs) are rare neoplasms.
    • Historically underestimated regarding malignant potential and growth rate.
    • Previous understanding of CBTs requires revision based on clinical experience.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To revise the understanding of carotid body tumor behavior.
    • To highlight the potential for aggressive local invasion and metastasis.
    • To present surgical techniques for acceptable outcomes.

    Main Methods:

    • Review of clinical experience with 11 personal cases of carotid body tumors.
    • Detailed discussion of surgical excision techniques.
    • Emphasis on clinical diagnosis and imaging over biopsy.

    Main Results:

    • Carotid body tumors can exhibit sudden growth spurts and become unresectable.
    • Malignancy cannot be reliably predicted by histological features.
    • Surgical excision is achievable with acceptable mortality and morbidity, preserving the internal carotid artery.

    Conclusions:

    • Carotid body tumors require a revised understanding of their potential for aggressive behavior.
    • Clinical diagnosis and imaging are preferred over biopsy to facilitate surgical removal.
    • Surgical management allows for successful tumor resection with good patient outcomes.
