Q

Which teeth are most commonly affected by 2-Hypodontia?

A
  • 3rd molars
  • 2nd mandibular molars
  • Maxillary lateral incisors
  • Maxillary 2nd premolars

These are the most frequently missing teeth in this condition.

17
Q

Is 2-Hypodontia hereditary?

A

Yes

This condition has a genetic basis.

18
Q

Front

19
Q

What are nevus cells?

A

Altered melanocytes that are smaller, lack dendrites, and are less metabolically active.

20
Q

What are the three main types of acquired melanocytic nevi?

A

Junctional, compound, and intradermal nevi.

21
Q

What defines a junctional nevus histologically?

A

Nests of nevus cells at the dermo-epidermal junction.

22
Q

Why do junctional nevi have malignant potential?

A

Nevus cells at the junction are metabolically active and capable of proliferation.

23
Q

What is a compound nevus?

A

A nevus with both junctional and intradermal elements.

24
Q

What happens to nevus cells when they migrate into the dermis?

A

They become smaller, lose melanin-synthesizing enzymes, and lose proliferative potential.

25
What is the most common type of intraoral nevus?
Intradermal nevus (also called intramucosal nevus).
26
Describe a blue nevus.
A flat bluish lesion with spindle-shaped nevus cells located deep in the dermis.
27
Which type of nevus is more likely to become malignant?
Dysplastic nevi.
28
What clinical signs suggest malignant transformation of a nevus?
Rapid enlargement, ulceration, color change, and lymph node enlargement.
29
What is melanoma?
A malignant tumor arising from melanocytes.
30
Which growth pattern in melanoma is associated with better prognosis?
Radial growth pattern.a=superficial spreading
31
Which growth pattern in melanoma is associated with a poor prognosis?
Vertical growth pattern.=nodular spreading
32
Name the four clinical types of melanoma.
Lentigo maligna melanoma, superficial spreading melanoma, nodular melanoma, acral lentiginous melanoma.
33
Which melanoma type is most common on sun-exposed skin of the face?
Lentigo maligna melanoma.
34
Which is the most common type of skin melanoma?
Superficial spreading melanoma. افتكر اقلهم خطورة واكثرهم وجودا
35
What characterizes nodular melanoma?
Dark pigmented elevation with vertical growth from the beginning, poor prognosis.
36
Which melanoma type is more common orally in Black individuals?
Acral lentiginous melanoma.
37
What histological patterns are seen in melanoma?
Rounded cell groups in fibrous stroma or sarcomatous spindle-cell patterns.
38
How does melanoma metastasize?
Through local invasion, lymphatics to regional nodes, and via blood to lungs and other organs.
39
Shape of cells of melanoma
Rounded cells Or sacrcomatus spindle cell pattern
