We consider that frozen section examination for salivary gland tumors is not sufficient on its own for deciding on the best management. Their interpretation must be correlated with clinical and intraoperative findings, in association with the surgeon's experience.
Description of a case of myotonic dystrophy appearing in infancy, the salient feature being a permanent global contracture of the facial musculature. It is not easy to explain the contrast between this contracture of clearly myotonic origin and the absence of clinical myotonia, active or passive, in muscles in which there was very intense EMG evidence of myotonic activity; the latter was, however, less massive and, more important, less persistent than that recorded from the facial muscles. The case seems to be unique.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
