Brain Abscess l: Introduction

Brain Abscess l: Introduction

A brain abscess is a focal, intracerebral infection characterized by a localized collection of pus within the brain parenchyma, resulting from microbial invasion and the body’s inflammatory response. It progresses through stages: early and late cerebritis, followed by early and late capsule formation, reflecting tissue destruction, immune response, and eventual encapsulation.Etiology and PathogenesisCausative organisms vary with source and host factors, often involving polymicrobial infections,...

Summary

This study reports a rare case of dystrophic calcification in the buccal mucosa. Diagnosis involved imaging and pathological analysis, highlighting the need for differential diagnosis in head and neck calcifications.

Area of Science:

Pathology
Oral Medicine
Radiology

Background:

Dystrophic calcification involves pathological calcium deposition in soft tissues.
Occurrence in the head and neck, specifically the buccal mucosa, is uncommon.

Keywords:

buccal abscess dystrophic calcification ectopic calcification inflammation ultrasonography
