BACKGROUND
In-office laryngeal surgery is taking on a more commonplace role in the treatment of laryngeal disorders. The potassium-titanyl-phosphate (KTP) laser has been a resourceful adjunct to the management of patients with mucosal lesions of the vocal cords. However, a paucity of data exists for
Vocal process granuloma is an uncommon occurrence which is possibly related to endotrachial intubation. Despite its infrequent occurrence, intubation vocal granuloma has received considerable attention in the literature on account of its versatile clinical managements and various results. We
Interleukin-1 (IL-1) is a monokine that exerts multiple biological activity, including immunity and inflammation. Moreover, IL-1 is involved in Ca2+ release causing hypercalcemia and bone resorption. Recently, a 22 kDa natural inhibitor to IL-1 called interleukin-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1ra) has
OBJECTIVE
Pyogenic granuloma is a common benign vascular lesion of the skin and mucosa prone to ulceration and bleeding. Current therapeutic approaches include surgical excision, removal by means of electro caustic therapy, cryotherapy, and ablation with CO2 or vascular lasers. The purpose of this
Interleukin-1 (IL-1) is a polypeptide which mediates several systemic changes associated with infection, inflammation and injury, such as fever, neutrophilia, increased acute phase protein synthesis, and arachidonic acid metabolites. Recently, a natural inhibitor of IL-1 has been cloned, called IL-1
The plant amino acid L-mimosine has recently been suggested to inhibit cells at a regulatory step in late G1 phase before establishment of active DNA replication forks. In addition, L-mimosine is an extremely effective inhibitor of DNA replication in chromosomes of mammalian nuclei. In this work,
4-Deoxypyridoxine (4-DPD) is a potent antagonist of Vitamin B6 coenzyme which inhibits IL-1, lymphocyte proliferation and has demonstrated that tolerance to skin grafts can be induced by administering splenic cells to pyridoxine-deficient mice. Chronic inflammation induced by dorsal injections of
Granuloma faciale (GF) is a rare, chronic skin disorder in which numerous treatment modalities have been used without any consistent long-term effect. We report three cases of GF, two of which were successfully treated with the Laserscope potassium-titanyl-phosphate 532-nm laser within 2 weeks and
