a. Adamantinoma is a rare tumor arising from the diaphysis of the long bone.
b. The most common long bone affected by adamantinoma is TIBIA.
c. In head and neck , the most common bone affected by adamantinoma is MANDIBLE.
d. In mandible, the most common site is the region of 3RD MOLAR.
e. Classic adamantinomas usually occur in patients older than 20 years, whereas
differentiated adamantinomas occur almost exclusively in patients younger than
20 years.
f. In addition, the 2 classifications of adamantinomas have distinct
radiographic and histologic differences.
g. Patients with adamantinomas present with variable signs and symptoms; most
commonly, they report pain and swelling.
h. The tumor is slow growing, and patients may describe discomfort lasting
months to years.
i. Treatment options for adamantinoma are surgical and include either marginal
or en bloc resection.
j. Unfortunately, neither radiation therapy nor chemotherapy has been proven
effective in the treatment of this insidious tumor.
k. The investigation of choice for adamantinoma is CT SCAN which shows cortical
destruction involving the diaphysis of the bone with surrounding periosteal
reaction.
l. On x ray there is a characteristic SOAP BUBBLE appearance.

Flexibility of an orthodontic wire is directly proportional to its length and the interbracket distance. Flexibility is inversely proportional to the cross-section diameter/area. Bracket prescription refers to the angles built into the brackets themselves and does not directly influence the inherent flexibility of the wire material.

Physiology
Answer: 4) Increase in heart rate and increase in stroke volume
Explanation: Thyroid hormones, such as thyroxine (T4) and triiodothyronine (T3), enhance the effects of catecholamines on the cardiovascular system, leading to increased heart rate and stroke volume. This results in a higher cardiac output, which is essential for meeting the increased metabolic demands during stress or exercise.
