Introduction: dermatofibrosarcoma protuberance (DFSP) is in general a rare low grade malignant sarcoma and possesses tendency for local recurrence. It has site predilection the trunk. Occurrence facial area extremely rare. Ample knowledge of its clinical, histological biologic characteristics vital accurate prompt recognition.
Long-term treatment of common chronic cardiac conditions such as hypertension with calcium channel blockers (CCBs) has long been associated gingival hyperplasia. This oral side effect may affect esthetics and function, yet often overlooked therefore underreported among Nigerians.This study aimed to determine the association CCBs overgrowth (GO) in hypertensive patients.This was a hospital-based, case-control conducted 116 patients (58 CCB 58 non-CCB age-matched controls) attending medical...
Background: Self-medication is the inappropriate use of drugs to treat self-diagnosed disorders or symptoms. Even though has benefits as it enhances better clinical skills and increases access medication; also associated with risks such adverse drug reactions antibiotics resistance. Objectives: To determine prevalence self-medication practices among dental out-patients, triggering factors that influence practice common source drugs. Materials methods: This descriptive cross-sectional study...
Ameloblastoma is the most common odontogenic tumour in Nigeria. A definite geographic variation has been observed frequency of tumors from different parts world. However, there no study on regional variations Hence, this was designed to document ethnic and geographical distribution jaw ameloblastoma Nigeria.Archival data 10 health facilities were obtained. Global Moran's I detected clustering its while Local Getis Ord indicated location clusters. Chi-square tested associations between...
Introduction: odontogenic tumors originate from neoplastic transformation of the remnants tooth forming apparatus. There are varying degrees inductive interactions between ectomesenchyme and epithelium during odontogenesis, leading to lesions that vary benign malignant. Malignant tumours (MOTs) very rare classified according embryonic tissue origin. Recently, there has been a few changes classification MOTs World Health Organization's (WHO) in 2017. This study aims evaluate reclassify MOTs,...
Introduction: Salivary gland lesions present with varied clinical features because of the complex architecture glands. A good understanding distribution, natural history, epidemiology, and etiopathogenesis is essential for diagnosis management. Materials Methods: retrospective cross-sectional study all salivary seen between January 2007 December 2016 at Biopsy Service Lagos University Teaching Hospital was conducted. Results: There were 224 over 10-year period; 115 (51.3%) females 109...
Background: Glandular odontogenic cyst is a rare locally aggressive developmental that recurs with conservative management.
