Peripheral Nervous System: Ganglia and Nerves

5.5K
The Peripheral Nervous System (PNS) is a crucial component of the body's neural network, extending beyond the central nervous system (CNS) to bridge the gap between the CNS and the external environment. It encompasses nerves, ganglia, and sensory receptors.
Nerves
The nerve is a bundle of axons that serves as the communication highway in the PNS. Each nerve is ensheathed in a protective layer of connective tissue called the epineurium. This outermost layer safeguards the nerve and supports the...

Peripheral Artery Disease I: Introduction

378
Peripheral artery disease (PAD) predominantly results from atherosclerosis, which involves the accumulation of fatty deposits, or plaques, within the walls of arteries. This causes them to narrow and harden, significantly reducing blood flow. PAD predominantly affects the legs, particularly the arteries supplying the thighs and calves. In rare cases, it may involve other arteries, including those in the arms.Etiology of PAD:The principal cause of PAD is atherosclerosis, which results from fatty...

Peripherally and Centrally Acting Muscle Relaxants: A Comparison01:09

Peripherally and Centrally Acting Muscle Relaxants: A Comparison

4.5K
Skeletal muscle relaxants can target the central nervous system [CNS] to reduce muscle tension or act directly at the neuromuscular junction to induce temporary paralysis. These two classes of muscle relaxants are called centrally acting muscle relaxants and peripherally acting muscle relaxants. They differ in their action, mechanism, administration route, and clinical uses.
Centrally acting muscle relaxants can be further divided into spasmolytic and antispasmodic drugs. Spasmolytic...

Peripheral Artery Disease III: Interprofessional Care

343
Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD) is characterized by narrowed arteries that diminish blood flow to the extremities. Effective management of PAD requires an interprofessional approach involving various healthcare professionals. The critical aspects of interprofessional care for PAD patients focus on risk factor modification, drug therapy, exercise therapy, nutrition therapy, critical limb ischemia care, and interventional radiology and surgical procedures.The primary treatment goal for PAD...

Parentral Nutrition: Centeral and Peripheral Parental Nutrition

907
Parenteral Nutrition (PN) delivers essential nutrients directly into the bloodstream, bypassing the digestive system. It is commonly used for individuals with severe digestive disorders or conditions that prevent normal nutrient absorption.
PN can be administered through two primary routes:
1. Central Parenteral Nutrition (CPN):
CPN involves delivering a high concentration of nutrients through a large vein. This is typically achieved using a Peripherally Inserted Central Catheter (PICC) or,...

Summary

Peripheral cemento-ossifying fibroma (PCOF) is a rare, benign gingival overgrowth often affecting the maxilla. Accurate diagnosis requires histopathology, as recurrence is common without complete excision.

Area of Science:

  • Oral pathology
  • Dermatology

Background:

  • Peripheral cemento-ossifying fibroma (PCOF) is an uncommon, reactive gingival lesion.
  • It is a slow-growing, benign tumor, typically found in the anterior maxilla.
  • The exact pathogenesis of PCOF remains uncertain.

Observation:

  • Clinical diagnosis of PCOF can be challenging.
  • Histopathological examination is essential for accurate diagnosis.
  • Two cases of PCOF in the posterior maxilla and mandible are presented.

Findings:

  • PCOF presents as gingival overgrowth, potentially causing periodontal issues.
  • Complete surgical excision is necessary to prevent recurrence.
  • The lesion's occurrence in the posterior jaw regions is noted.

Implications:

  • Emphasizes the need for definitive histopathological diagnosis of PCOF.
  • Highlights the importance of thorough surgical removal to minimize recurrence.
  • Contributes to understanding the clinical presentation and management of PCOF.
