ABSTRACT
Cerca de 6% das crianças com queimadura necessitam de internação hospitalar e a mortalidade por queimadura é superior nas crianças mais novas comparativamente às mais velhas. A síndrome do Choque Tóxico (SCT) é uma afecção rara e potencialmente fatal se não diagnosticada e tratada rapidamente. O caso a seguir mostra uma criança de 3 anos vítima de queimaduras de segundo e terceiro graus que evoluiu com SCT, além de uma breve discussão sobre os principais pontos-chave do diagnóstico e tratamento.
About 6% of children with burns require hospitalization and mortality from burns is higher in younger children compared to older ones. Toxic Shock syndrome (TSS) is a rare and potentially fatal condition if not diagnosed and treated quickly. The following case shows a three-year-old child suffering from second and third degree burns who evolved with TSS, as well as a brief discussion of the main key points of diagnosis and treatment.

ABSTRACT PURPOSE: To critically analyze and standardize the rat pancreatectomy nomenclature variants. METHODS: It was performed a review of indexed manuscripts in PUBMED from 01/01/1945 to 31/12/2015 with the combined keywords "rat pancreatectomy" and "rat pancreas resection". The following parameters was considered: A. Frequency of publications; B. Purpose of the pancreatectomy in each article; C. Bibliographic references; D. Nomenclature of techniques according to the pancreatic parenchyma resection percentage RESULTS: Among the 468, the main objectives were to surgically induce diabetes and to study the genes regulations and expressions. Five rat pancreatectomy technique references received 15 or more citations. Twenty different terminologies were identified for the pancreas resection: according to the resected parenchyma percentage (30 to 95%); to the procedure type (total, subtotal and partial); or based on the selected anatomical region (distal, longitudinal and segmental). A nomenclature systematization was gathered by cross-checking information between the main surgical techniques, the anatomic parameters descriptions and the resected parenchyma percentages. CONCLUSION: The subtotal pancreatectomy nomenclature for parenchymal resection between 80 and 95% establishes a surgical parameter that also defines the total and partial pancreatectomy limits and standardizes these surgical procedures in rats.
