Crohn/s disease is a type of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) that can affect any part of the gastrointestinal tract from mouth to anus. A key pathological feature of Crohn/s disease is the presence of non-caseating granulomas (collections of inflammatory cells) in the affected tissue. These granulomas are not typically found in ulcerative colitis, the other major type of IBD.

MedicinePauci-immune crescentic glomerulonephritis (GN) is typically associated with ANCA-associated vasculitis. The standard treatment for this condition involves a combination of high-dose corticosteroids (such as methylprednisolone) and an immunosuppressive agent, most commonly cyclophosphamide, to induce remission. This combined approach is more effective than monotherapy with either agent alone.

Oral PathologyPagets disease characteristically exhibits hypercementosis of the entire dentition due to the abnormal bone remodeling process affecting the alveolar bone and periodontal ligament space. The disease can also cause root resorption in severe cases. Albert-Schonberg disease (osteopetrosis), lathyrism, and low-grade periapical inflammation do not typically cause generalized hypercementosis of the entire dentition.
