L'hyperplasie pseudoangiomateuse du stroma (PASH) est une lésion de découverte histologique souvent fortuite dans des biopsies mammaires réalisées dans le cadre de lésions bénignes ou malignes du sein. Plus rarement, elle peut se... more
Researchers are currently trying to understand why some men with prostate cancer go on to develop aggressive disease whilst others maintain slow growing tumors. Although endogenous genetic anomalies within the tumor cell are important,... more
The stroma plays a fundamental role in the function of different glandular systems. In the prostate, the stroma is responsible for the development and maintenance of the differentiated state of the epithelium. Nicotine induces tobacco... more
RESULTS. The Le-AP-2 mutant mice were viable and had a normal lifespan. The adult corneal epithelium exhibited a vari- ation in the number of stratified epithelial layers, ranging from 2 to 10 cell layers. A substantial decrease in... more
Mesenchymal stem cells or multipotent mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) are multipotent progenitor cells that exhibit a marked tropism for tumors. MSCs form a tumor's fibrovascular network, differentiating into tumor-associated... more
Activating mutations of the KIT juxtamembrane region are the most common genetic events in gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) and have been noted as independent prognostic factors. The impact of KIT mutation in other regions, such as... more
PURPOSE: To evaluate the role of intrastromal injection of voriconazole in the management of deep recalcitrant fungal keratitis. DESIGN: Interventional case series. METHODS: Setting: Cornea services of a tertiary care teaching hospital.... more
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma is characterized by a highly malignant phenotype resistant to currently available systemic therapies; incidence rates are nearly equal to mortality rates ( 1). The extremely dense desmoplastic infiltration... more
To evaluate the effect of removal and/or exchange of intrastromal corneal ring segments (ICRS, Intacs); specifically the risk factors, degree of reversibility, and visual outcomes. Gimbel Eye Centres, Calgary, Edmonton, and Vancouver,... more
Ten eyes of eight patients with pathologies involving the corneal stroma and sparing the Descemet membrane (DM) were included in this study conducted at a tertiary care hospital. The indications for DALK included corneal clouding... more
