Children with a history of recurrent intermittent airway obstruction can present with a constellation of signs and symptoms labeled by their primary care physician as "recurrent croup." Recurrent croup, however, is not a diagnosis and should alert the clinician to the potential for intrinsic or extrinsic laryngotracheal pathology. This study was undertaken to evaluate referral patterns, diagnostic algorithms, and diagnoses for children with a history of recurrent intermittent airway obstruction initially characterized as "recurrent croup." We p...

A case of a 50-year-old male who developed left recurrent laryngeal nerve palsy due to a bronchogenic cyst is presented. The bronchogenic cyst recurred following incomplete excision and multiple attempts at percutaneous aspiration. Recurrent laryngeal nerve palsy is an unusual complication of bronchogenic cysts. This case highlights the need for complete excision of these cysts and the lack of efficacy of cyst aspiration.

Proliferative potentials of meningiomas from 127 patients were examined immunohistochemically using the anti-Ki-67 monoclonal antibody, MIB-1, on paraffin sections, and the correlation among MIB-1 staining index (SI), histopathological finding, and clinical course of the disease was analyzed retrospectively. The mean MIB-1 SI of 50 male patients with meningioma was 5.5%, whereas that of 77 female patients was 2.7%. Higher MIB-1 SI were observed for younger patients. These age- and sex-related differences in MIB-1 SI were statistically significa...

Recurrent urticaria and recurrent angioedema are frequent adverse reactions in non-atopic patients who do not tolerate aspirin. Of 1,632 infants and children who visited our allergy department for the first time, nine children (0.55%), five males and four females, presented recurrent urticaria or recurrent angioedema after taking aspirin. No evidence of atopy was disclosed either by clinical history (personal and family), skin testing, eosinophil levels or total IgE. Aspirin intolerance was established by oral challenge. Only three of the nine ...

Wild type p53 protein has been shown by recent investigations to be involved in the negative regulation of cell proliferation, whereas aberrant p53 protein has lost this negative regulation of cell growth. Wild type p53 protein, which has a very short half-life, has generally been considered to be undetectable using immunohistochemical methods; however, according to a recent report, wild type p53 protein may accumulate in the nuclei because of a defective ubiquitin pathway. Aberrant p53 protein has a longer half-life, and thus is visible using ...

AIM: To evaluate patterns of disease and identify factors predicting outcome in patients presenting with recurrent endometrial adenocarcinoma following primary surgery. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A retrospective review was performed of the imaging and clinical data in 86 patients (median age 66 years, range 42-88 years) presenting with recurrent endometrial adenocarcinoma following primary surgery. RESULTS: Following primary surgery recurrent disease occurred within 2 years in 64% and within 3 years in 87%. Relapse was seen within lymph nodes in 41...

We investigated the prevalence of recurrent aphthous ulcerations (RAU) and recurrent herpes labialis (RHL) in a young adult population. The study group consisted of 20,689 soldiers (aged 18-21 years, mean 19.8 +/- 1 years). There were 14,991 men and 5,698 women. Every patient was asked to complete a self-report health questionnaire which requested information about the occurrence of either RAU or RHL. Data were analyzed using the chi-square test, and the odds ratio was also determined. The prevalence of RAU and RHL was 6.2% and 5.4%, respective...
