ABSTRACT

El objetivo del presente artículo es hacer una revisión de un tema muy importante como es el diagnóstico y tratamiento de la mal oclusión clase III en etapas tempranas, para lograr este objetivo se reunió a un grupo de residentes de Odontopediatría de diferentes universidades durante 6 meses, el cual realizó una búsqueda de información en las principales revistas y textos llegando a la conclusión de que la mal oclusión clase III es un síndrome dentofacial que genera mucha controversia en la odontología actual debido básicamente a la pregunta constante de los clínicos de cuándo será el momento oportuno para iniciar el tratamiento. La respuesta a esta interrogante dependerá de la gravedad de la mal oclusión y del estadío de crecimiento óseo en el que se encuentre el paciente; pero existen otras dimensiones a considerar como: las características clínicas, el correcto diagnóstico y las alternativas posibles de tratamiento (que serán necesarias para poder decidir acertadamente cuándo y cómo será el tratamiento de nuestro paciente). El objetivo de esta revisión bibliográfica es orientar al clínico sobre diversos aspectos; de esta maloclusión, existentes en la literatura...


The aim of this article is to make a review of a very important theme as is the diagnosis and treatment of Class III malocclusion in early stages. To achieve this goal, we gather a group of residents in pediatric dentistry from different universities during six months, this group per formed a search for information in the most important journals and texts, coming to the conclusion that Class III malocclusion is a dentofacial syndrome that generates a lot of controversy in dentistry today, basically due to the constant question of clinicians about when is the correct time to treat this malocclusion. The answer to this question will depend on the severity of the malocclusion and on the bone growth stage of the patient; but there are other dimensions to consider such as: clinical characteristics, the correct diagnosis and possible treatment alternatives (that will be necessary to take into consideration in order to correctly choose when and how the treatment of our patient will be). The aim of this review is to guide clinicians through all the different aspects of this malocclusion that may exist in literature...

ABSTRACT

HIV-associated myelopathy is the leading cause of spinal cord disease in HIV-infected patients. Typically, it affects individuals with low CD4 T cell counts, presenting with slowly progressive spastic paraparesis associated with dorsal column sensory loss as well as urinary disturbances. Other aetiologies must be first ruled out before establishing the diagnosis. We report here the case of a 37-year-old woman with advanced HIV disease, who developed HIV-associated myelopathy. The patient showed a gradual improvement after beginning with highly active antiretroviral therapy and, finally, she achieved a complete functional recovery. In addition, neuroimaging and neurophysiological tests normalized.
