  • Argentaffin Cell tumour of meckel s diverticulum a report of 2 cases and review of the literature
    British Journal of Surgery, 2005
    Co-Authors: Eliza Jones, Holly Thompson, Alexander J Williams
    Abstract:

    Two patients with Argentaffin carcinoma (carcinoid tumour) of Meckel's diverticulum are described and the literature is reviewed. Only 45 previous cases have been reported. In both patients the primary tumour had metastasized by the time the diagnosis was made. The first patient developed the carcinoid syndrome 3 months after removal of the tumour but he is alive and well over 5 years later. The findings in these 2 patients add further support to the view that a carcinoid in a Meckel's diverticulum behaves like that in the small bowel rather than that in the appendix, with an appreciable (21 per cent) incidence of metastasis. The recommended treatment, therefore, should be similar to that of small intestinal carcinoid, namely, wide excision of intestine with a wedge of mesentery. Furthermore, prophylactic resection of Meckel's diverticulum is recommended whenever possible to eliminate the possibility of subsequent development of this tumour.

  • distribution and morphological observation of Argentaffin Cell in digestive tract of chinese yellow quail
    Chinese Veterinary Science, 2012
    Co-Authors: Liao Qiong
    Abstract:

    The distribution density and morphology of Argentaffin Cell in the digestive tract of 100-day-old Chinese Yellow quail were observed using the silver nitrate method of Grimelius.It was found that the Argentaffin Cell could be observed in the glandular stomach,duodenum,jejunum,ileum,caecum and rectum.The distribution density of Argentaffin Cell was wavelike,with the highest density in the glandular stomach and rectum,and the lowest density in caecum.The number of the Argentaffin Cell was similar between male and female quail,except in the duodenum where there was a significantly different.The Argentaffin Cell was observed between epithelial Cells of intestinal mucusa and intestinal gland,and some existed in lamina propria.In the caecum and glandular stomach,there were some Argentaffin Cells in the connective tissue.The shape of Argentaffin Cell was diberse,there were spindle,ellipse,cone,circle and anomaly.The cone Cells always had one long processus extending to the gut lumen,spindly Cells had two long processus,one extending to the gut lumen,the other extending to the lamina propria.According to the distribution density and morphology of Argentaffin Cell in the digestive tract of Chinese Yellow quail,the Argentaffin Cell might have exocrine,endocrine and paracrine functions.

  • INTESTINAL METAPLASIA OF THE EPITHELIUM OF THE GALL BLADDER

    Abstract:

    ΤΟ ΘΕΜΑ ΤΗΣ ΔΙΔΑΚΤΟΡΙΚΗΣ ΔΙΑΤΡΙΒΗΣ ΑΣΧΟΛΗΘΗΚΕ ΜΕ ΤΗ ΜΕΛΕΤΗ ΤΩΝ ΑΡΓΕΝΤΑΦΙΝΙΚΩΝ ΚΥΤΤΑΡΩΝ ΣΤΗΝ ΧΡΟΝΙΑ ΦΛΕΓΜΟΝΗ ΤΗΣ ΧΟΛΗΔΟΧΟΥ ΚΥΣΤΗΣ. ΤΟ ΒΑΣΙΚΟ ΣΥΜΠΕΡΑΣΜΑ ΤΗΣ ΕΡΓΑΣΙΑΣ ΗΤΑΝ ΟΤΙ ΤΑ ΚΥΤΤΑΡΑ ΑΥΤΑ ΔΕΝ ΑΚΟΛΟΥΘΟΥΝ ΤΗΝ ΓΕΝΙΚΗ ΕΙΚΟΝΑ ΤΗΣ ΜΕΤΑΠΛΑΣΙΑΣ ΗΤΟΙ ΕΛΑΤΤΩΝΟΝΤΑΙ ΜΕ ΤΗΝ ΠΑΡΟΔΟ ΤΗΣ ΗΛΙΚΙΑΣ. ΕΠΙΣΗΣ ΕΓΙΝΕ ΣΥΣΧΕΤΙΣΜΟΣ ΤΩΝ ΚΥΤΤΑΡΩΝ ΑΥΤΩΝ ΜΕ ΤΟ ΦΥΛΛΟ.Argentaffin CellS CHANGES IN MUCOSAL SURFACE EPITHELIUM, WERE STUDIED IN CHRONIC INFLAMATION OF THE GALL BLADDER. NO RELATIONSHIP OF THE Argentaffin Cell NUMBER INCREASE AND THE ENTERIC METAPLASIA DEVELOPMENT, WAS NOTED UNDER THE CONDITIONS OF OUR STUDY
