Treatment of an oral erythroplastic squamous cell carcinoma with Mohs' micrographic surgery.

In the case presented in this article, a large superficial erythroplastic oral carcinoma with vaguely delineated clinical borders and foci of invasive squamous cell carcinoma was treated with Mohs' micrographic surgery. This provided a safe, thorough, yet conservative mode of treatment. Mohs' micrographic surgery may be considered among the alternative treatments for selected mucosal lesions of squamous cell carcinoma.

Patient response to temporomandibular joint arthroscopy: preliminary findings in 24 patients.

A group of 24 patients who underwent TMJ arthroscopy with lysis of adhesions and lavage of 28 joints were evaluated for changes in symptoms and mandibular opening. The mean follow-up period was 7.5 months. The results revealed a general improvement in pain, joint noise, and hypomobility following TMJ arthroscopy. Measurement of mandibular opening revealed a mean increase of 5.9 mm. These results suggest that TMJ arthroscopy appears to be an excellent modality for the palliation of symptoms of TMJ pain, joint noise, and hypomobility.

Surface transport properties of reticulopodia: do intracellular and extracellular motility share a common mechanism?

The reticulopodial networks of the foraminiferan protozoans Allogromia sp., strain NF, and A. laticollaris display rapid (up to 11 microns/second) and bidirectional saltatory transport of membrane surface markers (polystyrene microspheres). Electron microscopy shows that microspheres adhere directly to the reticulopodial surface glycocalyx. A videomicroscopic analysis of this phenomenon reveals that microsphere movement is typically independent of pseudopod extension/withdrawal and that particles of different sizes and surface properties display similar motile characteristics. The motile properties of surface-associated microspheres appear identical to those of saltating intracellular organelles. Indeed, in some instances the surface-attached microspheres appear transiently linked in motion to these underlying organelles. Our observations suggest that, in reticulopodia, surface transport of microspheres and intracellular transport of organelles are driven by a common mechanism.
