Orbital optic nerve sheath meningioma Journal > /en/journal/2018/1/4-1-2018
Introduction: Orbital meningioma treatment has achieved significant success over the last period. Primary optic nerve sheath meningiomas by the clinically progressive finding, but still persistent sufficient visual acuity, can be treated by fractionated stereotactic radiotherapy. Surgery is indicated for secondary meningiomas of the orbit. Surgical treatment is indicated due to intracranial tumor ...
Conjunctvial lesions - The Relationship of Papillomas and Sguamous Cell Carcinoma to the HPV Infection Journal > /en/journal/2018/3/2
INTRODUCTION: The etiology of papilloma formation is multifactorial. There is a strong association between human papillomavirus (HPV) and the development of these conjunctival lesions. HPV is tumorigenic and commonly produces benign tumors with low malignant potential. Papillomas rarely go through malignant transformation.
