Abstract We previously published results on six patients, with mucocutaneous Pemphigus vulgaris (PV), treated with rituximab for recalcitrant disease (1). These patients and four others were followed‐up for 10 years. The aim was to review the long‐term outcome following rituximab treatment. PV is characterised by intraepidermal acantholytic blisters caused by circulating IgG‐autoantibodies against desmoglein‐3 (Dsg‐3) in mucosal‐dominant, and desmoglein‐1 (Dsg‐1) and Dsg‐3 in mucocutaneous PV (2).
Abstract Objective This study investigated components of the Hedgehog (HH) signalling pathway (SHH, GLI1), cyclin D1 and smooth muscle actin (SMA) in central giant cell granulomas (CGCG). The relationship between these proteins and myofibroblasts was also studied. Material and Methods Twelve cases of non‐aggressive CGCG and 11 cases of aggressive CGCG were studied using immunohistochemistry for SHH, GLI1, Cyclin D1 and SMA. Results Associations between all proteins in non‐aggressive...

Adenoid cystic carcinoma (ACC) is an aggressive, rare, malignant tumour that accounts for about 1% of all head and neck neoplasms and 10% of all salivary gland tumours. It is characterised by frequent local recurrences and distant metastases. Growth is slow but relentless, and progression poses a challenge to head and neck clinicians. Many small retrospective studies have described its clinical management, but the lack of multicentre, randomised, controlled trials has resulted in inconsistencies...
