Zinc-Boron-PLGA biocomposite material: preparation, structural characterization, and in vitro assessment
Rom J Morphol Embryol. 2023 Oct-Dec;64(4):567-577. doi: 10.47162/RJME.64.4.14.ABSTRACTNowadays, the state-of-the-art discoveries in the field of delivery systems for therapeutic purposes have redefined the importance of biocompatible and biodegradable poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid (PLGA) nanocomposites. The study aimed to obtain a biocomposite material, with improved properties of its constituents [zinc-boron (Zn-B) complex and PLGA], by a simple, cost-effective method. The water∕oil∕water double emulsion technique allowed the adjustment of the synthesis parameters, to maximize the degree of Zn-B complex encapsulation. ...

Intracardiac mass presenting as acute myocardial infarction
Rom J Morphol Embryol. 2023 Oct-Dec;64(4):579-585. doi: 10.47162/RJME.64.4.15.ABSTRACTCardiac tumors, although rare, present intricate diagnostic and therapeutic challenges, necessitating timely intervention for optimal patient outcomes. This case report focuses on a 65-year-old woman admitted with chest pain and loss of consciousness, ultimately diagnosed with a left ventricular cardiac myxoma. The patient's presentation mimicked acute coronary syndrome, highlighting the diagnostic complexity associated with cardiac tumors. Advanced imaging modalities, including transthoracic echocardiography, computed tomography, and inv...

Solitary fibrous tumor developing in the right retroperitoneal space
In conclusion, the early diagnosis of SFTs is essential in establishing an appropriate treatment. Immunohistochemistry is indispensable in establishing the diagnosis of SFTs.PMID:38184840 | PMC:PMC10863682 | DOI:10.47162/RJME.64.4.16 (Source: Romanian Journal of Morphology and Embryology)

Giant exophytic gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) causing gastric outlet obstruction: case report and review of literature
We present the case of a middle-aged patient diagnosed with a giant gastric GIST, which presented for intermittent gastric outlet obstruction symptoms, and emphasize the major imagistic, histopathological, and therapeutic challenges that may be encountered. There are only several cases of gastric exophytic gastric GIST provoking intermittent gastric outlet obstruction. Tumor resection should be adapted to every patient's status, focused on en bloc extraction, with preservation of invaded organs as much as possible.PMID:38184841 | PMC:PMC10863695 | DOI:10.47162/RJME.64.4.17 (Source: Romanian Journal of Morphology and Embryology)

Obliterative foam-cell arteriopathy. A unifying concept embracing several entities previously described as radiation, decidual, transplant, and intratumoral-associated arteriopathy
Rom J Morphol Embryol. 2023 Oct-Dec;64(4):457-466. doi: 10.47162/RJME.64.4.01.ABSTRACTThis review article aimed to postulate the existence of a specific arterial injury having as its histological hallmark a collection of macrophages loaded with lipids in the intima of small-sized and medium-sized arteries causing narrowing or complete obstruction. The proposal is made that a series of previously described entities, such as ionizing radiation arteriopathy, acute atherosis (foam-cell decidual arteriopathy), transplant chronic arteriopathy of solid organ allografts, and intratumoral-associated foam-cell arteriopathy constitut...
