ABSTRACT
Ectopic decidua is a rare benign condition, believed to be associated with excessive progesterone stimulation such as in multiple gestations as in our case, it's usually asymptomatic and found incidentally during caesarean section. The lesions involute spontaneously in the postpartum period; therefore it usually doesn't require any therapeutic interventions. This condition could induce anxiety to surgeons intra-operatively, because of resemblance of more sinister lesions such as: carcinomatosis and granulomas. We report a clinical case of diffuse peritoneal deciduosis, identified during an emergency caesarean section, performed at 33 weeks of gestation, for a transverse lie, twins DCDA pregnancy in active labor.
ABSTRACT
This review will summarize the research information regarding the regenerative potential of dental stem cells for the treatment of neurodegenerative disorders. As compared to existing treatment modalities, the stem cell therapy seems promising, and accumulating evidences about the differentiation of stem cells into various lineages are proving it. The incidence of neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, stroke, and peripheral neuropathy is increasing due to the rise in life expectancies of people which have put a huge burden on economies. Finding a promising treatment could benefit not only the patients but also the communities. Dental stem cells hold a great potential to differentiate into neuronal cells. Many studies have reported the differentiation potential of the dental stem cells with the presence of neuronal lineage markers. In this review, we conferred how the use of dental stem cells can benefit the above-mentioned bedridden diseases.
