Prolonged remission with eradication of the disease is difficult to achieve in the indolent nodular lymphomas.
Acne rosacea, an acne of middle age that exhibits nodular swelling of tissues in the face, is a disease that occurs rarely among blacks.
Nodular cherts occur as small to large (millimetres to centimetres) knotlike and fistlike clusters of quartz, chalcedony, and opal concentrated along or parallel with bedding planes in shallow-water marine carbonate rocks as well as pelagic limestones.
The origin of nodular cherts has long been debated, but most are produced by the secondary replacement of the carbonate minerals and fossils within shallow marine shelf deposits.
Nevertheless, three principal types exist: (1) regionally extensive, crystalline nodular, and bedded phosphorites, (2) localized concentrations of phosphate-rich clastic deposits (bone beds), and (3) guano deposits.
Having the earlobes pierced for earrings sometimes results in a large, painless nodular keloid enlargement of the earlobe, harmless but unsightly.
Two major varieties of chert deposits exist namely, bedded chert and nodular chert.
It is characterized by fever, swelling of the mucous membranes, and the presence of nodular skin tumours.
The most common thyroid disease is thyroid nodular disease (the appearance of small, usually benign lumps within an otherwise healthy gland), followed by hypothyroidism, hyperthyroidism, and thyroid cancer.
Complex collections of cells surrounded by lymphocytes in the connective tissue of muscle and nerve bundles cause pressure and pain; the nodular lesions may invade the connective tissue of the blood vessel walls.
Phosphorite, also called Phosphate Rock, rock with a high concentration of phosphates in nodular or compact masses.
