Короткий опис (реферат):
Introduction. In the last two decades, the use of stem cells in clinical
medicine has found wide application. Thus, in addition to the longestablished positive effect of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation
in the treatment of leukemia and other systemic blood diseases, the
use of stem cells for the correction of neurodegenerative diseases is
becoming widespread. At the same time, concerns are expressed related
to theoretical assumptions about the possible immunosuppressive
effect of stem cells on the immune system, which increases the risk
of developing cancer. Although there is no proven evidence that the
immunosuppressive effects of stem cells are more dangerous than
those of immunosuppressive therapy using drugs, this does not
alleviate the fears sometimes further fueled in society by the media. In
any case, the question of the possibility of oncogenic transformation of
stem cells remains open, especially given that both cell types exhibit
histomorphological and immunohistochemical patterns of embryonic
cells.
Aim. To present the histomorphological and immunohistochemical
characteristics of a unique observation of an orbital neoplasm that
developed after stem cell injection.
