It originates in two heads, medial sternal head which is rounded and tendinous; and lateral clavicular head. The sternal head originates from the upper part of the anterior surface of the manubrium sterni and ascends posterolaterally. The clavicular head is variable in width and originates from the superior surface of the medial third of the clavicle and ascends almost vertically. The two heads of origin are separated by a triangular interval, which corresponds to a surface depression, the lesser supraclavicular fossa. As they ascend the clavicular head spirals behind the sternal head and blends with its deep surface below the middle of the neck, forming a thick, rounded belly. The muscle is inserted by a strong tendon to the lateral surface of the mastoid process from its apex to its superior border, and by a thin aponeurosis into the lateral half of the superior nuchal line. The clavicular fibres are mainly directed to the mastoid process; the sternal fibres extend to the occipital bone. The sternocleidomastoid muscle is supplied by the spinal part of the accessory nerve. It also receives proprioceptive innervations by cervical spinal nerves from the cervical plexus. The sternocleidomastoid muscle receives its blood supply from branches of the occipital and posterior auricular arteries, which supply the upper part of the muscle. The muscular branches coming from the superior thyroid artery and suprascapular artery supply the middle and lower part of sternocleidomastoid muscle. The sternocleidomastoid muscle acting alone, laterally flexes the neck and rotates the face to the opposite side. The two muscles acting together flex the head and neck forcibly. Spasm of the sternocleidomastoid muscle, usually of unknown origin but sometimes congenital, is one cause of a flexion deformity of the neck known wryneck or torticollis; other muscles that rotate and flex the neck also may contribute to torticollis (Williams et al., 1995; Standring et al., 2005). CASE REPORT During the gross dissection of an elderly male cadaver a rare case of additional slip of origin was found on both sides, in the clavicular head of sternocleidomastoid muscle (Fig. 1). Because of this additional slip of origin the clavicular head was extending up to the middle of the Case Report 622 clavicle on both sides, there by reducing the gap between the trapezius and sternocleidomastoid muscles. The two clavicular heads of origin of sternocleidomastoid muscle were separated by a wider triangular interval (compared to the interval between the sternal head and normal clavicular head), which corresponds to one more surface depression, the additional lesser supraclavicular fossa. The additional slip is also supplied by a branch from the spinal part of the accessory nerve. However, on both sides the origin of sternal head and the insertion of sternocleidomastoid muscle were found to be normal. DISCUSSION The sternocleidomastoid muscle varies much in the extent of its origin from the clavicle. In some cases the clavicular head may be as narrow as the sternal; in others it may be as much as 7.5 cm in breadth. When the clavicular origin is broad, it is occasionally subdivided into several slips, separated by narrow intervals. More rarely, the sternocleidomastoid and trapezius muscles are fused with each other. Some authors regard this fusion between the Fig. 1. Variation in the origin of sternocleidomastoid muscle.

Int. J. Morphol., 25(3):621-623, 2007. 623 sternocleidomastoid and trapezius muscles as normal (Bergman et al., 1988). This may be due to the developmental reason, since both the muscles are derived from the same source, the post-sixth branchial arch. The sternocleidomastoid muscle frequently separates into other parts, which are arranges in two parts: a superficial sternomastoid, sterno-occipital and cleido-occipital part; and a deep layer consisting of a deep sternomastoid and cleidomastoid part. The names indicate the attachment of various parts. Knowing the 5 parts of the sternocleidomastoid muscle is important for harvesting the muscle flap. A supernumerary cleido-occipital, more or less separate from the sternomastoid has a reported frequency of 33% (Mustafa, 2006, Bergman et al.). Occasionally, the lower portion of the muscle is traversed by a tendinous intersection, which may indicate the formation of the muscle from different myotomes (Bergman et al.). The supraclavicularis muscle arises from the manubrium behind the sternocleidomastoideus muscle and passes behind the sternocleidomastoideus muscle to the upper surface fot he clavicle. In our present findings, of the additional slip in the clavicular origin of sternocleidomastoid muscle may be due to abnormal splitting in the mesoderm of post-sixth branchial arch. However, the relevance of our findings whether it is associated with the condition of wry neck and other congenital deformities of the neck needs to be evaluated by further studies. In our study, even though additional slip of origin was found on both sides, in the clavicular head of sternocleidomastoid muscle, we did not find any noticeable clinical symptoms. It is essential for the surgeons to be aware of possible variations during routine head and neck surgeries. Knowledge of sternocleidomastoid muscle consists of additional parts and the muscle fibers in each part are lying in the same direction from origin to insertion in the same fascial package may be important for harvesting the muscle flap reconstruction during parotid surgery is an effective method of covering the surgical defect and possibly preventing Frey's syndrome. Thus, it would be possible to choose more appropriate muscle parts. RAMESH, R. T.; VISHNUMAYA, G.; PRAKASHCHANDRA, S. K. & SURESH, R. Variación en el origen del músculo esternocleidomastoideo.

Stromal tumors of the stomach: a clinicopathological study of 15 cases and review of the literature George Galateros1, George Simatos2, Gregorios Lakiotis2, Martha Stathaki1, Spyros Volteas1, Georgia Kafiri3, and Varvara Theologi4 1Department of Surgery, Ippokration General Hospital, Athens; 21st Department of Surgery, 1st IKA Hospital, Penteli, Athens; 3Department of Histopathology, Ippokration General Hospital, Athens; 4Department of Histopathology, 1st IKA Hospital, Penteli, Athens, Greece ABSTRACT Aims and background. Gastrointestinal stromal tumors are the most common mesenchymal tumors of the digestive tract, although their incidence is low. These tumors make up a unique entity based on their molecular pathogenesis, immunohistochemical staining and responsiveness to targeted therapy. Gastrointestinal stromal tumors vary inmalignant potential ranging fromsmall incidentally detected tumorswith an excellent outcome to aggressive sarcomas. Their optimal diagnostic approach and treatment remain amatter of debate.We present our experience in this rapidlymoving field. Methods. We present our experience on 15 patients presented during a 5-year period (June 2000-September 2005)with gastrointestinal stromal tumors located in the stomach. Results. Upper gastrointestinal endoscopy and CT scan revealed the tumors in all cases. All patients underwent curative surgery. A definitive diagnosis was established after surgery. Conclusions. Although an inverse correlation between level of risk and survival of patients with gastrointestinal stromal tumors has been observed, 6 of our patients with an intermediate risk of recurrence had a favorable outcome. Introduction Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) are soft tissue sarcomas of mesenchymal origin that arise in the gastrointestinal tract. GISTs are a unique entity separate from leiomyomas and leiomyosarcomas. Most GISTs arise in the stomach (60-70%) or small intestine (20-30%) and less frequently in the esophagus,mesentery, omentum, colon, or rectum (10%)1,2. They are rare before the age of 40 years, with a median age at presentation of 50-60 years and a slight male predominance3,4. The diagnosis of GIST relies on standard histological examination5 (tumor cellmorphology) and immunohistochemical analysis using CD1176. Over 85% of GIST express the KIT protein3 (stemcell factor receptor CD117). All tumors have the potential to becomemalignant, and the prediction of aggressiveness is best estimated by the simultaneous evaluation of several parameters7. As GIST is a recently defined entity, the optimal diagnostic approach, imaging and treatment have remained an area of active scientific debate over the last 5 years.We present our experience in this rapidly moving field. Patients and methods The study group consisted of 15 patients who underwent surgery for gastric GIST at the Departments of Surgery of Ippokration General Hospital and 1st IKA Hospital of Tumori, 94: 459-463, 2008 Athens, fromJune 2000 to September 2005. There were 9 males and 6 females, with a mean age of 59.5 years. Preoperative assessment was based mainly on endoscopy and computerized tomography (CT). All patients underwent surgery. The diagnosis of GIST was based on tumor cell morphology and a positive staining for KIT.We classified the tumors using the algorithm of the consensus for assessing the risk of malignancy of GIST reached at the NIH workstage based on tumor size and mitotic rate (per 50 high power field, HPF)6. The algorithm identifies four risk groups: a very low-risk group (<2 cmand <5mitoses/ 50 HPF), a low-risk group (2-5 cm and <5 mitoses/ 50HPF), an intermediate-risk group (<5 cmand 6- 10 mitoses/50 HPF or 5-10 cm and <5 mitoses/50 HPF) and a high-risk group (>5 cm and >5 mitoses/50 HPF or >10 cm regardless of mitotic activity). The study was approved by the Ethics Committees of both hospitals. Results Patients presented with vague symptoms, including abdominal pain, anorexia, weight loss and gastrointestinal hemorrhage (Table 1). All patients underwent upper gastrointestinal endoscopy. In 7 cases, a submucosal mass was seen at endoscopy. Endoscopic ultrasound was not available at that time. In 8 patients with normal endoscopy, a CT scan revealed a typically extraluminal (exophytic) mass in all of them (Figure 1). CT staging showed in all 15 patients localized lesions amenable to radical surgery. There were no metastases to the liver or the peritoneal cavity. All patients underwent surgery. At the time of surgery, there was no tumor spread beyond the stomach, and a complete resection of the lesion was feasible in all cases. In 4 cases, the tumor was located in the proximal half and in 11 cases in the distal half of the stomach. Five patients underwent wedge resection, subtotal gastrectomy was performed in 8 patients, and total gastrectomy in 2 patients. There was no perioperativemortality. A definitive diagnosis of GIST was made after surgery by examination of the resected specimen. The diagnosis of GIST was based on tumor cell morphology and immunohistochemistry characteristics, mainly a positive staining for KIT (Table 2). Microscopically, 9 patients had spindle cell type GIST and 6 epithelioid type GIST (Figure 2). Surgical margins and lymph node status were negative in all cases. 460 G GALATEROS, G SIMATOS, G LAKIOTIS ET AL Table 1 - Signs and symptoms of gastrointestinal stromal tumors upon presentation Signs and symptoms No. cases Gastrointestinal bleeding 8 Anemia 3 Nausea-vomiting 3 Pain 2 Weight loss 2 Palpable mass 1 Table 2 - Immunohistochemistry of tumor samples Immunohistochemistry No. Kit (CD 117) 15 positive CD 34 8 positive Vimentin 15 positive SMA 4 positive S100 - Desmin - Figure 1 - CT scan demonstrated an exophytic mass with heterogeneous contrast enhancement arising from the stomach. Figure 2 - Spindle cell type GIST with positive staining for KIT. All patients were followed from the time of surgery. For high- and intermediate-risk patients, we recommended a CT scan every 3 months for 3 years, then every 6months for the next 2 years and yearly thereafter. For very low- and low-risk tumors, a CT scan every 6 months for 5 years seemed a reasonable strategy. In 3 patients with larger gastric tumors (>10 cm), multiple intrahepatic metastases were found within 2 years of the resection. They were treated with imatinib with an initial response to therapy. All 3 patients eventually died during the follow-up, having achieved a mean survival of 9.5 months (range, 7.5-12) after the initiation of imatinib treatment. The remaining 12 patients are all alive with no signs of recurrence after a median follow-up of 3.4 years (range, 6 months-5 years) after surgery. Treatment with imatinib was not recommended in these 12 patients (Table 3). In the analysis of clinical follow-up, we found a favorable outcome for the intermediate-risk group patients (4 males and 2 females). Discussion GISTs are rare tumors, representing approximately 0.1-3% of all gastrointestinal neoplasms and 5% of all sarcomas8. GISTs account for approximately 2% of all tumors of the stomach and 14% of all tumors of the small intestine9. The tumors were described in 1983 and are characterized by a specific histological and immunohistochemical pattern. GISTs have been shown to exhibit typical activating mutations of the KIT or PDGFRA proto-oncogenes, which are the likely causal molecular events of GIST. Gastric GISTs have a slightmale predominance (55%), with amedian age at presentation of 63 years. Only 2.7% of tumors occurs before the age of 21 years and 9.1% before the age of 40 years10.With prolonged follow-up, any GIST has the potential to behave in amalignant fashion. In an attempt to design a tumor-specific risk, a proposal was formulated including tumor size and mitotic activity per 50 HPF6. Generally, their malignant potential is often difficult to predict and is best assessed by the simultaneous evaluation of several parameters such as size, mitotic count, location, invasion of adjacent organs, mucosal invasion, nuclear pleomorphism, necro- Table 3 - Characteristics of tumors and follow-up according to risk group Risk group No. of Tumor Mitotic Follow up patients size (cm) count (yr) (/50 HPF) Mean Range Median Range Very low 1 1.5 - <5 2 Low 5 3.1 2.5-4.5 <5 3.2 0.5-5 Intermediate 6 5.9 5-7 <5 4.3 3-5 High 3 13 12-15 >5 2.7 2.6-3 HPF, high power field. sis and proliferation rate6,7. The only absolute criterion formalignancy is tumor spread beyond the organ of origin at the time of diagnosis. The significance of the primary site (location) is still disputed; GISTs from the small intestinemay have a worse prognosis than gastric GISTs11. In the small intestine, there is an overall 39%tumor- related mortality, twice that for gastric GIST12. Two-thirds of GISTs arise fromthe stomach. The commonest sites are: pars media, 40%; antrum, 25%; and pylorus, 20%. They develop in the submucosa (60%), subserosa (30%) or are intramural (10%). They may grow in an endophytic or exophytic way parallel to the gastric lumen13. Large tumors may have a “dumbbell” appearance, with masses protruding both into the lumen and out of the serosa of the stomach. Gastric GIST vary in size from 0.5 to 44 cm (median, 6.0)10 and commonly present with gastrointestinal bleeding, pain and fatigue. Approximately 12% are detected incidentally. GIST arising in the stomachmay be discovered during upper gastrointestinal endoscopy. Endoscopic ultrasound may aid in the diagnosis. Contrast-enhanced CT scan is currently the imagingmodality of choice inmost cases14-16. Magnetic resonance imaging may facilitate localization and delineation of large exophytic GIST, mainly at the anorectum16. Surgery is the mainstay of therapy for patients with GIST whose primary lesion is deemed resectable. For localized tumors, wedge resection of the stomach provides adequate local therapy17,18. More extensive gastric lesions may require subtotal or even total gastrectomy. Adjacent organs adherent to the mass should be resected en bloc with the tumor17. GISTs generally protrude from the tissue of origin and displace surrounding structures rather than infiltrate18. The aim of surgery is the complete resection of the mass without disruption of the commonly present pseudocapsule. Avoiding rupture during surgery is of paramount importance since these tumors are very fragile, and the risk of spillage is very high17,19. Tumor rupture before or during resection is a predictor of a poor outcome. GIST rarely metastasize to lymph nodes and thus lymph node dissection is not routinely performed. Metastases usually present in two ways: liver and intraabdominal dissemination. GIST have a high tendency to seed, and the intra-abdominal lesions probably result from tumor cell seeding into the abdominal cavity, whereas livermetastases probably result fromhematogenous spread of GIST cells into the liver20. Extra-abdominalmetastases are very rare. Achieving negative microscopic surgical margins is usually feasible. Nevertheless, it seems that the pathologic status of the margins of resection is not associated with recurrence or survival, and the success of surgery depends mainly on whether the tumor sheds surface cells into the peritoneal cavity rather than on the surgical margins21,22. GASTROINTESTINAL STROMAL TUMORS 461 Studies have shown that in patients with gastric GIST, tumor size is an independent prognostic factor for survival21. Patients with tumors larger than 10 cm in diameter had a disease-specific 5-year survival rate of only 20% after resection. However, another study showed in a series of 1765 cases that in gastric GIST outcome was strongly dependent on tumor size and mitotic activity. Only 2-3% of tumors <10 cm in diameter and <5 mitoses/ 50 HPFmetastasize. Tumors >10 cm in diameter and with mitotic activity <5 mitoses/50 HPF have a relatively low metastatic rate (11%)10. Our 3 patients with tumors >10 cm in diameter had a mitotic count >5 per 50 HPF, and this possibly explains their poor outcome. Long-term follow-up reveals that most patients except for very low-risk patients eventually develop recurrence even after complete surgical resection of GIST. Most recurrences (local or metastatic) occur within 2 years of initial resection21,22. Unexpectedly, 6 of our patients at intermediate risk for recurrence had a favorable outcome and had no sign of recurrence 3-5 years after surgery. Recently, in a population-based study examining survival rates with GIST, an inverse correlation between the level of risk and survival was found9. In this particular series, patients with an intermediate risk of recurrence had a favorable outcome, and this was related to the fact that in most of the cases the tumors were detected incidentally at surgery. In the study, it was advocated that any GIST >6 cm in greatest dimension regardless of mitotic count and proliferative index should be regarded as potentially malignant and with a poor outcome. However, data from other recent studies support that the most important prognostic factor for gastric GIST is mitotic count, not tumor size23. These data combined may support the good clinical outcome of our patients at intermediate risk, since the average size of the tumor in this group was <6 cm(5.9 cm), and in addition all had amitotic count of <5/50 HPF.We would also like to emphasize the meticulous attention that we paid not to rupture the pseudocapsule of the tumor whenever feasible. This may also give evidence to the fact that our intermediate-risk group had a good outcome. It is most likely that most recurrences (local or metastatic) that occur within 2 years of initial radical resection are cases of the high-risk group. Patients with unresectable metastatic and advanced GISTs have a poor prognosis, with a median survival of about 12months (before the imatinib era)3,11,21, and unfortunately these tumors respond poorly to radiotherapy and chemotherapy. In such cases, immediate treatment with imatinib is recommended. The remarkable clinical response of GIST to treatment with imatinib is a triumph of molecular pharmacology22. The mechanism of action of imatinib in GIST involves inhibition of KIT or PDGFRa kinase activity. Several ongoing studies of imatinibmesylate in GIST are addressing the important issues of efficacy of neoadjuvant and adjuvant therapy, duration of therapy, and safety in the perioperative period. The use of imatinib mesylate for treating patients with GIST will be tailored by the final results of these clinical trials. For now,most experts recommend initiating imatinib therapy for patients with advanced GIST at a dose of 400-600 mg/day24,25. Impressive results are obtained with FDG-PET in the evaluation of treatment efficacy to themolecular targeted therapy with imatinib in GIST. A complete metabolic response is achieved within one week of the initiation of treatment in patients who respond and precedes CTscan response by several weeks to months24. PET also proved to be useful for the detection of secondary resistance to imatinibmesylate. Routine use of PET in oncology is still hampered by the high cost and the limited availability of the technique. At present, there is no indication for the routine use of PET in the management of patients with GIST. CT andmagnetic resonance imaging remain the imagingmodalities of choice in the initial diagnostic workup of GIST and for the evaluation of treatment efficacy26. References 1.

The purpose of this study was to analyse if ECT operates a modulation of serum BDNF levels in a sample of drug resistant depressed patients. The results obtained show significantly higher serum levels of BDNF following ECT. More specifically, while no change occurred in the whole sample between T0 (baseline) and T1 (after ECT) (p=0.543) a significant increase has been identified at T2, one month after the end of ECT (p=0.002). However, the BDNF augmentation was evident even between T0 and T1 in a subgroup of patients who has low baseline BDNF levels. Although future researches are needed, the results herein presented show for the first time that ECT is associated with changes in serum BDNF and further support the possible involvement of BDNF in antidepressant therapies 129.CENTRAL DOT SIGN ON CT SCAN CAROLIS DISEASE 130 . a female female having delivery after 3 dys of chicken pox true statement is child can hv congenital infection h 1103 131cognitive model of depression? ans. is BECK. 132 nasolabial cyst false is bilat 133 .multiple myeloma minor criteria a/e:plasmacytoma(major criteria) repeat frm explanation frm guide 134.one repeat q was thr abt cephachlor trt n the guide has given its ans as type 3 hypersensitivityu bt accrd to data given i will prefer it as kawasaki disease plz help me in ths ans 135 axillary sheath is derived frm prevertebral fascia ref ramesh babu 115 136.not a second messenger guanylyl cyclase ref harper 27th 445 137 one q was thr wth a choice creatine phosphate n ths the ans harper 583 138.phosphorylase b inactivation is by glucose harper 162 139. presence of ab on membrane bound or secretory depends on isotype switching harper 603 140 protein structure can be detected by a/e high pressure liquid chromatography 141 marker of ribosome peptidyl transferase harper 374 142.multiple injury,tachypnoea, periumbilical rash-fat embolism 143.nitrogen narcosis due to N2 dissolves in neurons 143]Sulphonamides to girl:Acute intermittent porphyria ref h 2438 144/vasopressor used in obstetrics ephedrine 145.anticancer drug excreted by lungs m unable to get the referance 146 .high false positive is due to low prevalance 147.

[email address in profile] txccc.org Langerhans cell histiocytosis results from the abnormal accumulation of a class of dendritic cells normally found in the skin, which proliferate in many organ systems along with lymphocytes, macrophages and eosinophils. Standard therapy for Langerhans cell histiocytosis includes vinblastine and prednisone with or without methotrexate and mercaptopurine, depending on the extent of disease. Effective therapies for patients unresponsive to the above include cytosine arabinoside and cladribine. Thalidomide has proven useful for patients with Langerhans cell histiocytosis of the skin and/or bone. Emerging therapies include the use of monoclonal antibodies against the CD1a or CD52 epitopes found on Langerhans cells.
