The cells found at the outer layer of your skin (e.g. on your arm) are dead. It's easier to get a good look at the cell of the mucous membranes.

Is squamous acanthoma cancer?

No. "Squamous acanthoma" or "Basal-squamous acanthoma" are scary-sounding, technical terms for "age spots" (or "liver spots"), which are benign skin blemishes. Such blemishes, although possibly unsightly, may be removed or even safely ignored. Occasionally they may return after being removed, which is not cause for concern.

How can smoking damage ciliated epithelium cell?

When you smoke your cilia get paralyzed for 90 minutes, that way mucus can not come up. "morning cough" is because your cilia are not paralyzed while you sleep, therefore all that mucus is trying to get coughed up when you wake up. Most people just start up the day with yet more smoking. I really hope this helps. E-mail : aeroally22@aol.com


How do you treat lichenoid keratosis?

I just had a lichenoid keratosis removed by a plastic surgeon. My dematologist said it looked like a squamous cell carcinoma, which I have had on the same leg. For that reason alone, I had it removed. It came back as benign, however, I have been reading that a lichenoid keratosis is like a pre-cancerous actinic keratosis, which can turn into cancer. I am happy it is gone.


How does epithelium obtain nutrients and oxygen and get rid of wastes?

Epithelial cells obtain nutrients and oxygen from the underlying connective tissue via diffusion. Metabolic waste products are removed through diffusion into the connective tissue and subsequently cleared by the bloodstream and lymphatic system. The efficiency of these processes is essential for maintaining the health and function of the epithelium.


Can a scar be removed liked erased?

I hope so as I am currently recovering from being " under the knife" to remove scarring from the side of my nose after a less than satisfactory operation to remove a blocked squamous epithelial gland that was mistaken for cancer. So will give a definitive answer this time next week


What is the name of the foreskin removed during circumcision?

A circumcision is a form of male genital mutilation where the prepuce or foreskin which protects the glans of the penis is simply cut away exposing them to friction on clothing and hardening and drying out. It is a totally unnecessary procedure.


Is squamous cell lung carcinoma fast growing?

My partner had a squamous cell carcinoma growth on his eyelid which grew from the size of a tiny lump into covering his whole eyelid within 16 weeks. It was circular and grew to a point outwards. I described it as looking like a volcano. The outward growth looked like a lump of dry keratin or weetabix. If you have a similar growth push your surgeon or consultant to get it removed ASAP as my poor partner lost his whole eyelid and has been going through years of corrective surgery and is still waiting for further ops due to negligence. He was also told that as this is not considered a dangerous cancer (very strange?) that he'd have to wait for his initial biopsy. Don't get fobbed off by useless doctors get it removed. Please.


What is the concept of 'Manager once removed'?

This is a concept from Eliot Jaques' Stratified Systems Theory (see his book Requisite Organization). It refers to a reporting relationship: your Boss' Boss would be your MoR (Manager-once-Removed). He/she would have accountabilities for assessing your potential for future roles, recommending development opportunites (beyond current job-specific) and mentoring you in your career. A very powerful concept: takes all of the potential 'downsides' of putting this responsibility on your manager (i.e. holding you back from another opportunity because you're too great!)

What cancer is the non spreading skin cancer?

Basal cell skin cancer generally does not spread (although it has in some rare cases). Squamous cell skin cancer is typically not dangerous, although more agressive than basal cells. But any type of skin cancer should be removed as it can cause serious problems, and possibly lead to death in rare cases. Melanoma is the deadly one, but is curable early on.
