To evaluate the expression of E-cadherin (E-cad) in oral epithelial dysplasia (OED) and oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). (ijpmonline.org)
Immunohistochemistry was used to detect E-cad expression in 20 cases each of normal oral mucosa, oral epithelial dysplasia and squamous cell carcinoma. (ijpmonline.org)

While the likelihood of developing this type of skin cancer increases on areas of the body that have had years of sun exposure, metatypical basal cell carcinoma might also form on non-exposed regions. (ocskincancer.com)
Metatypical Basal Cell Carcinoma is a unique form of skin cancer, in that multiple combinations of cells are found within the actual malignancy. (ocskincancer.com)
There are no specific features to determine whether a lesion is a metatypical basal cell carcinoma or another kind of basal cell carcinoma. (ocskincancer.com)
Please keep in mind, there are certain risk factors to be aware of when trying to spot a metatypical basal cell carcinoma. (ocskincancer.com)
If metatypical basal cell carcinoma is present, complete removal of the lesion is necessary. (ocskincancer.com)
Since metatypical basal cell carcinoma can form on areas of the skin that are not exposed, the next best form of prevention is to be aware of your body and the warning signs of skin cancer. (ocskincancer.com)
Remember, metatypical basal cell carcinoma will look similar to other forms of skin cancer until it is examined under a microscope. (ocskincancer.com)

Treatment for a particular tumor depends largely on the type of tumor, its location and size, and the overall physical condition of the dog. (merckvetmanual.com)
After surgical removal, tumors should be evaluated under a microscope (called a histopathology test) to confirm the type of tumor and whether all of the tumor was likely removed. (merckvetmanual.com)
