It has been reported that 3% of all fractures are pelvic fractures, and rigid clinical observation is required (1, 2). Patients with pelvic fractures are prone to bleeding. Pelvic fractures are associated with serious head, chest, stomach, and spine injuries. Organ injuries can cause high mortality and morbidity rates (3, 4, 5, 6). Fast and intensive treatment management is necessary to reduce mortality and morbidity (7). When a pelvic fracture is diagnosed at the emergency department, the hemodynamic parameters should first be stabilized and then the patient should be assessed for multisystem injuries, primarily gastrointestinal and urogenital.","PeriodicalId":351803,"journal":{"name":"medical journal of islamic world academy of sciences","volume":"59 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127083541","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Lip cancer is located on the lower lip in 87.2%–90% of the patients (2,3). Squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) constitute 95% of the lip cancers (4-6). Lower lip SCCs are most commonly seen in Caucasian male smokers. They are often seen in the sixth decade of life. Etiology is multifactorial, but prolonged sun exposure has a major role. Histological changes, such as leukoplakia, hyperkeratosis, and actinic cheilitis, are also observed in adjacent tissues. Besides, sun rays, pipe and cigarette smoking, bad dental hygiene, chronic alcoholism, and immunosuppression also contribute to tumor development. The standard treatment for lip cancer is surgical excision and reconstruction (7). Surgical excision should be done carefully and the excisional material and its boundaries should be subjected to histopathological examination in three dimensions to obtain the highest cure rate and the smallest defect size (8). A probability exists of recurrence and regional metastasis in 5%–15% of all lower lip SCCs (9). Distant metastasis is expected in 15% of these patients. Histopathologically, tumor thickness is a determining factor for regional metastasis. Therefore, it is an important criterion in treatment planning (10). In the present study, 40 patients with lip SCC were reported. The purpose of the study was to evaluate these patients in terms of epidemiology, histopathology, and recurrence.","PeriodicalId":351803,"journal":{"name":"medical journal of islamic world academy of sciences","volume":"8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129640300","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Men and women seem to be equally predisposed to this disease, and the age of onset is usually between 35 and 55 years (2). The incidence is estimated between 1% and 3% per year in the adult general population. It occurs because of overuse injury. But a sudden extreme effort or activity such as trauma can also cause damage to the epicondylar area (3). The classical description is pain at the lateral aspect of the elbow that often radiates down the forearm. It leads to the failure of common extensor tendon, specifically the extensor carpi radialis brevis portion. The diagnosis of LE includes palpation of the lateral epicondyle, resisted wrist extension, resisted wrist and middle finger extension, and passive wrist flexion (4,5).","PeriodicalId":351803,"journal":{"name":"medical journal of islamic world academy of sciences","volume":"83 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117109966","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
