Ameloblastic fibroma (AF) is an uncommon benign odontogenic tumour, with both epithelial and mesenchymal neoplastic proliferation. It occurs most frequently in the posterior region of the mandible, while its occurrence in the maxilla is extremely rare. They are usually encountered in children, emphasizing it as an important diagnostic consideration. Herein, we report the first case of a bilateral maxillary ameloblastic fibroma in a 2-year-old female child patient who presented with a chief complaint of swelling in the right mid facial region. 1.

The study involved 180 individuals (60 each from Karnataka, Kerala, and Manipuri population). Lipstick was used to record lip prints, which were visualized by magnifying lens. Palatal rugae were recorded on maxillary casts of all subjects and analyzed following Kapali S .' s classification. Statistical Package for the Social Sciences version 20 for Windows software was used for analysis. Among the study population, most frequent lip print pattern was Type 3 and least was Type 1'. When patterns were compared between groups, Type 3 was the most common in Manipuri and Kerala and Type 3 in Karnataka groups. In the entire population, males showed Type 3 and females showed Type 1. On analysis of overall rugae wavy, forward and divergence patterns were predominant. On comparison of gender, males demonstrated greater number of wavy and perpendicular ru...

Monitoring genetic damage in DS individuals helps in evaluating genetic damage. Micronucleus assay is potentially an excellent tool to serve as a biomarker which detects chromosomal loss or malfunction. Aim of the study: The objective of the study is to evaluate micronuclei (MN) frequency in exfoliated buccal cells in DS individuals. Materials and Methods: The study subjects consisted of clinically diagnosed cases of Down syndrome. Healthy subjects without any medical conditions formed the control group. The cyto-smears were stained with Papanicolaou stain. Results and Conclusion: The presence of increased number of micronuclei in Down syndrome (P<0.05) patients may be useful in identifying individuals with increase risk of mental retardation.

A pyometra co-existing with an enlarged ovary was diagnosed by ultrasound; ovariohysterectomy was performed. The left ovary was enlarged (8 Â 5 Â 4 cm) compared with the contralateral ovary (2.5 Â 1.5 Â 1.5 cm), and was irregularly shaped. On sectioning, the left ovary was seen to comprise a uniform, white tissue with multiple cystic structures. The uterus, showing an irregular morphology, contained a haemorrhagic exudate. The left uterine horn was markedly distended, with multiple adherences to the ovarian bursa. Results: Microscopically, in the left ovary, the normal parenchyma was compressed by a neoplastic mass represented by well-differentiated nervous tissue, surrounded by dense connective tissue. The tumour cells had strong immunohistochemical labelling for S100, NSE and vimentin, but were negative for keratin and inhibin. The endometrium had cystic hyperplasia with septic pyometra. In the cranial segment of the left uterine horn an epithelial cell tumour invading the muscular layer was also found. Conclusions: Here we describe a case of a monophasic ovarian teratoma co-existing with endometrial adenocarcinoma and septic pyometra in an old female dog; two rare gynecological conditions.

However, studies on alteration in serum lipid profile among OSMF patients are limited. The present study was performed to estimate serum lipid profile in OSMF patients and gutkha chewers. Material and Methods: The study sample comprised of 45 cases, which included 15 clinically diagnosed OSMF patients (group I), 15 persons with gutkha chewing habit (group II) and 15 controls. The serum levels of Total serum cholesterol (TC), Low Density Lipoproteins (LDL), High Density Lipoproteins (HDL), Very Low Density Lipoproteins (VLDL) and Triglycerides (TG) were analyzed. The data was analyzed using Post hoc Dunnett’s t-test and P<0.05 was studied as statistically significant. Results: On analysis serum lipid profiles progressively lowered in Gutkha chewers and OSMF patients. There was significant decrease in TC (P<0.0001), TG (P<0.0002), LDL (P<0.0007) an...

Correlating lip prints and palatal rugae with blood groups may be valuable in forensic science in precise identifi cation of an individual than by means of lip prints or palatal rugae only. The present study was carried out to establish the allocation of diff erent lip print patterns and palatal rugae among the subjects having diverse ABO and Rh blood groups in Karnataka and Kerala population. Materials and Methods: The study sample consisted of 100 subjects, which included 50 Kerala and 50 Manipuri subjects in the age group of 17-21 years. All the individuals' lip prints, palatal rugae and blood groups were studied. Statistical comparison between the groups was done using the Chi-square test or Fisher's exact test for small samples. Results: Type 2 was found to be the predominant lip print pattern (45%) in both the populations. The major rugae shape in both the populations was wavy pattern and less commonly curved and straight. Left side of the palate showed relatively more number of rugae. Blood Group A showed highest Type 3 lip print, B showed Type 2 pattern, AB showed Type 1 and Type 3 patterns and O showed Type 2 patterns. In blood Group A, curved palatal rugae were predominant whereas, in blood Group B, AB and O wavy patterns were predominant. Conclusion: In the present study, it is noted that there is no association between lip prints and blood groups. However, comparison of palatal rugae with blood groups showed a statistically signifi cant diff erence. Thus, our present showed a correlation between palatal rugae and blood groups.
