Résumé
An esophageal inlet patch is a congenital anomaly composed of heterotropic gastric mucosa at or just distal to upper esophageal sphincter. Most often it is asymptomatic or presents as complications of acid secretion. The diagnosis is confirmed by endoscopy with biopsy. We have presented a case of 67 years old female who complained of nausea and decreased appetite. Endoscopy showed an elevated mucosal structure with superficial ulceration in the upper third of esophagus. Histopathology confirmed presence of ectopic gastric mucosa. We have presented this case as it is not diagnosed often and it is important to identify it as it helps the treatment and rarely has a malignant potential.
Résumé
Application of HCH (25 mg/kg) on dorsal, ventral and thigh regions of the skin of male rabbits resulted in poisoning and mortality of animals. Morphological changes in skin, liver, kidney, testes and cerebellum together with highly significant alterations in serum and liver enzymatic activity and residue in blood suggested that absorption of HCH and its toxicity could be severe when the pesticide comes in contact with the skin of thigh region of body.
