| fibroma, desmoplastic | A extremely rare bone tumour characterised by abundant collagen formation and a fibrous stroma, without evidence of mitosis or pleomorphism. It appears on X-rays as an osteolytic lesion with well-defined margins and must be differentiated from primary fibrosarcoma of bone.

| primary senile dementia | <disease> A progressive, neurodegenerative disease characterised by loss of function and death of nerve cells in several areas of the brain leading to loss of cognitive function such as memory and language. The cause of nerve cell death is unknown but the cells are recognised by the appearance of unusual helical protein filaments in the nerve cells (neurofibrillary tangles) and by degeneration in cortical regions of brain, especially frontal and temporal lobes. Alzheimer's disease is the most common cause of dementia. (22 May 1997) |
