My granddaughter has been diagnosed with lytic lesion on her leg bone and has just undergone a bone biopsy. Is this the normal procedure? What is the likelihood that this is cancer. My granddaughter has been diagnosed with lytic lesion on her leg bone and has just undergone a bone biopsy. Is this the normal procedure? What is the likelihood that this is cancer.
Lytic lesions are areas of bone destruction or resorption that appear as holes on imaging studies. They can be caused by various conditions such as cancers (like multiple myeloma), infections, or certain bone disorders. Treatment depends on the underlying cause of the lytic lesions.

What word is the cycle of infection in which more viruses are produced and the host cell is destroyed?
This cycle is called the lytic cycle. In the lytic cycle, the virus replicates inside the host cell, causing the cell to burst open (lyse) and release new virus particles to infect other cells.
What happens at the end of lytic cycle?
The last step in the lytic cycle is that new viruses begin to be made
How are the lysogenic and lytic cycles different?
causes Disease
What are the difference between reproduction by the lytic and lysogenic cycles?
The lytic cycle involves the immediate replication of the virus and eventual destruction of the host cell, while the lysogenic cycle involves the integration of the virus's genetic material into the host cell's genome, leading to longer-term dormancy. Lytic cycle results in rapid production of new viral particles, while lysogenic cycle allows the virus to replicate along with the host cell's DNA until a trigger induces the lytic cycle.
What do linchen planus lesions look like?
Lichen planus lesions typically appear as flat-topped, shiny, reddish-purple bumps on the skin. They may also have white streaks or lines running through them. These lesions can be itchy and may occur on the skin, mucous membranes, or nails.
What is lytic infection?
On an x-ray, lytic lesions are light areas found in otherwise dense bone. This suggests something has destroyed or replaced that part of bone. There are both cancerous and noncancerous causes of lytic lesions.
Can scalp lesions from lupus lead to brain damage?
No, scalp lesions affect the skin and hair of the scalp. What happens on the scalp does not permeate the brain. The brain is under the skull bones. The lesions cannot get through the skull to the brain.
Is measles lytic or lysogenic?
HPV infects the dermis layer of cells using the lysogenic cycle.
What is white spots on x ray called?
Radioopaque areas, patches, shadows, sclerotic lesions.
Is rabies a lytic or lysogenic virus?
Yes rabies is lytic. The lytic cycle is a cycle of viral reproduction and is how some diseases are spread.
Does the variola virus go through the lytic or lysogenic cycle or both?
lytic it goes through the lytic cycle
Is the common cold virus a lytic or lysogenic virus?
lytic
Does salmonella use the lytic or lysogenic cycle for reproduction?
Lytic.
Does the avian flu have a lytic or lysogenic cycle?
The avian flu virus primarily follows a lytic cycle. During this cycle, the virus infects the host cell, replicates itself, and then lyses (breaks open) the cell to release new viral particles.
Does the lytic cycle or the lysogenic cycle automatically destroy the host cell?
Lytic.
How is a lysogenic cycle different from lytic cycle?
The Lytic cycle causes disease
How is a lysogenic virus different from a lytic virus?
Unlike lytic viruses, lysogenic viruses do NOT lyse the host cell right away where as lytic cells do.
