Fibroids are smooth muscle benign tumors; most commonly arise from uterus but may also rise from extra uterine sites like broad ligament. This case report of broad ligament myoma with extensive cystic degeneration is presented for its rarity and diagnostic challenges as they mimic pelvic adenexal

Primary extraneural ependymomas are rare tumors that arise in ectopic sites, including pulmonary, sacrococcygeal region, ovarian, and paraovarian tissues. Four such ependymomas reported in the literature involve the paraovarian tissues, including 2 broad ligament ependymomas. Here we describe a

Pathological neovascularization is a hallmark of late stage neovascular (wet) age-related macular degeneration (AMD) and the leading cause of blindness in people over the age of 50 in the western world. The treatments focus on suppression of choroidal neovascularization (CNV), while current approved

Broad ligament is the common extrauterine site for fibroid. We present a case of huge broad ligament fibroid with cystic degeneration. Patient presented with abdominal swelling and mild pain abdomen. On abdominal examination, a large tense cystic mass of 34 weeks gravid uterus size arising from

Retinal degenerations are a large cluster of diseases characterized by the irreversible loss of light-sensitive photoreceptors that impairs the vision of 9.1 million people in the US. An attractive treatment option is to use gene therapy to deliver broad-spectrum neuroprotective factors. However,

Studies of the effects of the anthelminthic agent albendazole on the tissues of D. latum in vivo showed large shapeless protrusions of the outer tegumental cytoplasm on the surface of strobila, the mitochondrial degeneration in the tegumental cells and their nucleolar material segregation. After in

The destruction of obsolete larval tissues at the onset of insect metamorphosis is a complex process triggered by the steroid hormone ecdysone. Among the genes required for the implementation of salivary gland (SG) degeneration the reduced bristles on palpus (rbp) gene of the Broad-Complex (BR-C)

Five affected siblings were referred with a probable diagnosis of proximal adult-type spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) based on lower motor neuron signs (muscle weakness and atrophy, hypotony, hypoactive or absent reflexes, and fasciculations), normal or borderline serum creatine kinase levels, and a

Lateral DNA transfer--the movement of genetic traits between bacteria--has a profound impact on genomic evolution and speciation. The efficiency with which bacteria incorporate genetic information reflects their capacity to adapt to changing environmental conditions. Integron integrases are proteins

The Broad-Complex, a 20-hydroxyecdysone-regulated gene, is essential for the development of many tissues during metamorphosis. In Broad-Complex mutants of the rbp complementation group, dorsoventral indirect flight muscles (DVM) are largely absent, and the dorsal longitudinal indirect flight
