Modern orthopedic doctors still believe in Degas’ description‚ yet today they are more aware of the pathology and its effects in utero‚ as well as‚ the postnatal phase. Therefore‚ it is universally accepted that DDH is no more a congenital defect than it can be acquired.

The Pathology of Myocardial Infarction The heart is considered one of the most vital organs for human survival and is responsible for giving human life and pumping blood through the arteries‚ capillaries‚ and veins. Heart diseases make the heart function improperly which causes the blood to not circulate throughout the body‚ making human life impossible. Heart diseases is considered to be number one on the top ten lists of death in the world. Because of this reason‚ I believe that understanding

Cardiovascular Pathology The heart has many components to it and all of them are essential to keep the heart pumping. Three problems that can occur in a heart are atria or ventricles not functioning properly‚ the electrical activity‚ or coronary artery disease.

Mucositis (in vitro studies) Defention: One of the most debilitating side effects of radiotherapy and chemotherapy treatment. It is characterized by both inflammation and cell loss in the epithelial barrier. Mucositis is a very complex condition: it develops as a series of dynamic interactions that begin in the epithelium but in a later stage involves other tissue mucosal components like the endothelium‚ extracellular matrix and connective tissue. It is a frequent reason to postpone chemotherapy
