ABSTRACT

Oral focal mucinosis (OFM) is an uncommon, asymptomatic, submucosal, slow-growing nodule representing a counterpart of the cutaneous focal mucinosis (CFM). OFM has a female predilection with the highest prevalence in the fifth decade of life. About 68% of OFMs occur in the gingiva and 14% in the palate. We present the case of a 41-year-old woman presenting a progressively growing mass on the palate, since the last 8 months. The diagnostic workup led to the diagnosis of an unusual OFM with the clinical presentation involving the gingiva and hard palate. This case report discusses the clinical and histopathological differential diagnosis.

ABSTRACT

Objective: To evaluate the prevalence of maxillofacial trauma resulting from physical violence against older adults, describe patterns and identify factors associated with its occurrence. Material and Methods: This is a cross-sectional study conducted from the assessment of 7,132 reports of victims of violence who sought a Brazilian Service of Forensic Medicine and Dentistry, during the period from January 2008 to December 2011. Descriptive statistics, Pearson's chi-test square test and Poisson's univariate and multivariate regression (with robust variance) were performed using SPSS software version 20.0. The significance level was set at p <0.05. Results: A total of 259 older adults suffered physical violence. The occurrence of maxillofacial trauma was observed in 42.9% of the sample. Lesions in soft tissue (90.1%) affecting more than one region of the face (40.4%) were the most frequent. The prevalence of maxillofacial trauma was more frequent among individuals older than 66 years (PR = 1.166; 95% CI = 0.865- 1.572), males (PR = 1.119; 95% CI = 0.807-1.550), victims of violence occurred within the community (PR = 1.431; 95% CI = 0.951- 2.153), during the night shift (PR = 1.226; 95% CI = 0.911-1.651) and weekends (PR = 1.279; 95% CI = 0.955-1.714) performed without using blunt instrument (PR = 1.311; 95% CI = 0.932-1.846). Conclusion: The prevalence of maxillofacial trauma resulting from physical violence against older adults was high and soft tissue lesions affecting more than one face region were predominant.

ABSTRACT

A lesão de Morel-Lavallée, descrita inicialmente no século XIX pelo cirurgião francês Victor Auguste François Morel-Lavallée, constitui lesão de partes moles, sobretudo nas áreas que revestem as protuberâncias ósseas. Sua fisiopatologia consiste no deslocamento da pele e do tecido celular subcutâneo sobre a fáscia muscular, provocado por forças tangenciais súbitas e intensas, secundárias a traumatismos. No espaço criado pela avulsão dos tecidos, acumulam-se sangue, linfa e debris gordurosos. O diagnóstico é baseado na história clínica, no exame físico e nos exames de imagem. O tratamento geralmente é conservador e o prognóstico é bom, nas lesões menores. Em casos de lesões extensas podem ocorrer graves complicações. O diagnóstico diferencial inclui bursite, hematoma, abscesso, tumores benignos e neoplasias malignas. O presente relato visa alertar o pediatra sobre a possibilidade diagnóstica de lesão de Morel-Lavallée, garantindo-se sua abordagem precoce e adequada, especialmente quando se considera a prática de esportes cada vez mais comum entre crianças e adolescentes, além do risco da sua ocorrência por traumas associados às atividades lúdicas próprias da faixa etária pediátrica.(AU)


The injury of Morel-Lavallée, first described in the nineteenth century by the French surgeon Victor Auguste François Morel-Lavallée, is a soft tissue injury, particularly in the linimg areas of the bony prominences. The patophysiology consists in the displacement of the skin and the fascia subcutaneous tissue caused by sudden and intense shear forces, secondary to trauma. In the space created by tissue avulsions acumulates blood, lymph and fatty debris. Diagnosis is based on clinical history, physical examination and imaging studies. Treatment is usually conservative and the prognosis is good, in the minor injuries. In cases of extensive lesions the result can be serious complications. The differential diagnosis includes bursitis, hematoma, abscess, benign and malignant neoplasms. This report aims to alert the pediatrician about the diagnostic possibility of Morel-Lavallée lesion nsuring their early and appropriate approach, especially when we consider the practice of sports, increasingly common among children and adolescents, and the risk of their occurrence of traumas associated with own play activities of pediatric patients.(AU)

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVES@#To analyze the characteristics and mechanisms of pelvic fractures in the cases of road traffic accident deaths.@*METHODS@#Total 65 cases of road traffic accident deaths with pelvic fracture were collected, and the sites, characteristics and injury mechanisms of pelvic fracture were statistically analyzed.@*RESULTS@#Among the 65 cases of pelvic fracture, 38 cases of dislocation of sacroiliac joint were found, and most combined with pubis symphysis separation or fracture of pubis. In the fractures of pubis, ischium and acetabulum, linear fractures were most common, while comminuted fractures were most common in sacrum and coccyx fractures. There were 54 cases combined with pelvic soft tissue injury, and 8 cases with pelvic organ injury and 44 cases with abdominal organ injury. In the types of pelvic ring injury, 32 cases were separation, 49.32%, followed by compression, 26.15% and only one case was verticality, 1.54%.@*CONCLUSIONS@#Detailed and comprehensive examination of the body and determination of the pelvic fracture type contribute to analyze the mechanisms of injury.

ABSTRACT

La abfracción es una lesión por pérdida del tejido duro en la unión amelo cementaría del diente en vestibular o lingual, acompañada generalmente de sensibilidad. El estrés emocional, la acción de fuerzas excéntricas generadas por interferencias oclusales, el bruxismo, pueden ser considerados factores predisponentes; por ello se planteó un estudio observacional descriptivo con componente analítico, el objetivo fue determinar la prevalencia de abfracciones, para luego asociarlas con el estrés emocional en 110 pacientes de 15 a 59 años en edad en la Facultad de Odontología de la Universidad Nacional de Asunción y una clínica privada en el año 2008. Para determinar el nivel de estrés emocional se utilizó un cuestionario, Maslach Burnout Inventory, valorado en una escala de alto/moderado, leve y bajo, se utilizó la inspección clínica y el sondeo para diagnosticar la abfracción. Se encontró una prevalencia de abfracción de 44%, de los cuales el 49% correspondió al sexo masculino. El diente más afectado fue el primer premolar inferior izquierdo (9,9%). El 100% de los pacientes presentaban estrés y hubo asociación estadísticamente significativa entre la abfracción y el bruxismo 0,004 p<0,005(F), también con el estado civil de los pacientes 0,001 p<0,005(F) entre los que prevalecían los casados 59%. Un alto porcentaje de pacientes presentaban abfracciones y estrés, pero no hubo asociación estadísticamente significativa p=0,3(F).


Abfraction is a lesion due to hard tissue loss at the cementoenamel junction either on buccal or lingual surface of a tooth, generally accompanied by sensitivity. Emotional estrés, eccentric forces generated by occlusal interferences, bruxism can be considered as predisposing factors, therefore an observational descriptive study with an analytic component was set out in order to determine the prevalence of abfractions and to relate them to emotional estrés in 110 patients ages 15 - 59 at the Facultad de Odontología de la Universidad Nacional de Asunción as well as at a private clinic in 2008. In order to determine emotional estrés, a questionnaire by Maslach Burnout Inventory was used, ranging from high, moderate, mild and low. Clinical checkup and probing were the means to diagnose abfraction. A prevalence of 44% was found, 49% of which were males. The most affected tooth was lower left first premolar (9.9%). 100% presented estrés and there was statistically significant relationship between abfraction and bruxism 0,004 p<0,005(F), also regarding marital status, there was more prevalence among married patients (59%). A high percentage of patients presented both abfraction and estrés, but there was no statistically significant association p=0,3(F).

ABSTRACT

A luxação traumática do joelho está associada a extensos danos músculo-ligamentares. Quando lesões neurovasculares estão presentes, o prognóstico é agravado e a viabilidade da extremidade torna-se francamente ameaçada. Em caso de lesão arterial poplítea, a abordagem deve ser feita o quanto antes sob pena de perda do membro, que, em algumas séries, alcança 80 por cento. Os autores relatam o caso de um paciente jovem vítima de luxação traumática do joelho esquerdo associada a fraturas do acetábulo e da diáfise do fêmur ipsilaterais, com diagnóstico tardio (no quinto dia pós-trauma) de lesão da artéria poplítea. O paciente foi submetido a revascularização do membro e teve evolução satisfatória apesar da gravidade da lesão vascular, contrariando a evolução encontrada na literatura do trauma de artéria poplítea tratado tardiamente.


Traumatic knee dislocation is associated with massive muscle damage. When there are neurovascular lesions, prognosis is even worse and the limb viability is threatened. Popliteal artery lesions should be treated as soon as possible to prevent risk of limb loss, which can reach up to 80 percent in some case series. We report a case of a young patient who had traumatic knee dislocation associated with ipsilateral acetabular and femoral body fractures with late diagnosis (on the fifth day after the trauma) of popliteal artery lesion. The patient underwent limb revascularization with good outcome despite the severity of the lesion, which is in disagreement with the usual outcomes reported in the literature for the popliteal artery trauma with delayed treatment.

ABSTRACT

Las quemaduras eléctricas causan daños severos en tejidos y órganos, los vasos sanguíneos pueden trombosarse y progresivamente producir necrosis. La tibia es uno de los huesos con menos vascularidad, donde las quemaduras condicionan graves defectos óseos y de partes blandas. Se realizó un estudio observacional, descriptivo, donde presentamos un paciente masculino indígena de 27 años de edad, quien sufrió descarga eléctrica de alto voltaje, en el cual se observó defecto de partes blandas con exposición de la cara anteromedial distal de la tibia derecha, nuestro objetivo fue realizar una ostectomía de la cara anteromedial, para resecar el segmento óseo necrótico, seguidamente se realiza osteotomía percutánea de una hemicortical de la diáfisis de la tibia y se colocó un fijador externo lizarov para el transporte óseo. Obtuvimos 15 mcs. aproximadamente de transporte, desde la diáfisis proximal con media de la cara anteromedial de la tibia hacia el defecto óseo resecado. Con la hemicallotasis se logra un hueso nuevo, provisto de tejido y piel necesarios cuando se ve comprometida la circulación de los huesos. La hemicallotasis es una alternativa de tratamiento de paciente con lesiones de huesos largos con desvascularización y pérdida detejidos blandos.


Electrical burns cause terrible damage to tissues and organs, blood vessels and thrombi can produce progressive necrosis. The tibia is one of the bones with less vascularity, where serious condition from burns and bone defects of soft tissue. Indian male 27 years old, who had ruled out high-voltage power, with necrosis of the right tibia, being transferred to the University Hospital "Manuel Nuñez Tovar". A descriptive study: Where an osteotomy is performed to resect the necrotic bone segment, then performs a hemicortical percutaneous osteotomy of the diaphysis of the tibia and placed an lizarov type external fixator with a rail for the transport bone. Carriage, from the diaphysis with the proximal half of the front of the tibia to the bone defect surgically resected. Hemicallotasis is achieved with a new bone, tissue and skin provided when needed is compromised the circulation of bone. Hemicallotasis is an alternative treatment in patients with lesions of long bones with little loss of vascularity and soft tissue.

ABSTRACT

O objetivo deste estudo foi determinar a prevalência de cárie dental, o índice de placa e a presença/ausência de lesões de tecidos moles em crianças hospitalizadas. Durante um período de 6 meses, 78 crianças hospitalizadas foram examinadas. A idade das crianças foram, 24 entre 3-5 anos e 54 entre 6-12 anos. Após 3 dias de hospitalização, foram determinados em cada criança, o ceo-d e CPO-D, o índice de placa e a presença/ausência de lesões de tecido moles. Todas as crianças pertenciam a famílias com baixo poder aquisitivo e foram hospitalizadas principalmente devidos a doenças pulmonares e gastrointestinais. A média de ceo-d foi 3.91 e o CPO-D foi de 1.21. O índice de placa foi muito alto e aumentou com o tempo de hospitalização. As gengivites (42 por cento) e os abscessos dentais (5 por cento) foram as doenças de tecidos moles mais frequentes. O padrão de saúde bucal nesta amostra de crianças é muito baixo e um programa preventivo-odontopediátrico é necessário para melhorar a saúde bucal daquelas crianças durante a hospitalização.

ABSTRACT

Low voltage energy source is not free from danger. An exceptionally rare and peculiar mode of facial blast injury is reported. The blast took place silently in the mouth of a 15-year-old boy, due to short-circuiting of wires connected to a12-volt car battery while peeling off insulation with the intent of running a musical instrument. Airway compromise due to soft tissue injury produced further problem during tracheostomy. Emergent airway management is discussed. Post-healing sequel resulted in loss of voice and prevented normal oral feeding. The case report emphasizes need for education to public in handling low voltage energy source.

ABSTRACT

Avaliar diferentes métodos radiológicos no diagnóstico de corpos estranhos (CEs) de madeira. MÉTODOS: Foram utilizados 11 frangos adultos. Realizou-se lesão perfurante, em cada sobrecoxa do animal. Em um dos lados, foi introduzida e deixada uma farpa de madeira e, na sobrecoxa contralateral, esse mesmo objeto foi introduzido e retirado (Grupo Controle). Após sete dias, os animais foram mortos e tiveram seus membros retirados para avaliação por radiografia simples (RS), ultra-sonografia (US), tomografia computadorizada (TC) e ressonância magnética (RM). Cada exame foi avaliado, independentemente, por dois radiologistas experientes. RESULTADOS: A sensibilidade foi 13,6 por cento para RS, 63,3 por cento para US, 59,1 por cento para RM e 72,7 por cento para TC, com especificidades de 100 por cento, 100 por cento, 95,5 por cento e 95,5 por cento, respectivamente. O valor preditivo positivo foi de 100 por cento para RS e US, de 95 por cento para TC e de 93,8 por cento para RM, enquanto o valor preditivo negativo foi de 53,7 por cento, 73,7 por cento, 78,3 por cento e 70,1 por cento, respectivamente. A acurácia foi de 84,1 por cento, para TC, de 81,8 por cento para US, de 77,3 por cento para RM e de 56,8 por cento para RS. Comprovou-se, histologicamente, presença de reação inflamatória em todas as sobrecoxas que continham CE. CONCLUSÃO: RS apresenta pequena utilidade na detecção radiológica de CE de madeira em frango, devendo-se optar pelo emprego de US e TC, seguido por RM.

ABSTRACT

The management of musculoskeletal disorders is an increasing challenge to clinicians. Successful treatment relies on a wide range of multidisciplinary interventions. Adjunctive hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) therapy has been used as an orthopaedic treatment for several decades. Positive outcomes have been reported by many authors for orthopaedic infections, wound healing, delayed union and non-union of fractures, acute traumatic ischemia of the extremities, compromised grafts, and burn injuries. Severe side effects have also been reported with this therapy. To aid in the use of HBO therapy in orthopaedics, we reviewed 43 papers published in the past four decades and summarised the mechanisms, effectiveness, indications and contraindications, side effects, and cost impact of adjunctive hyperbaric oxygen therapy in the management of difficult musculoskeletal disorders. Adjunctive HBO therapy is an effective treatment modality for the management of some severe and refractory musculoskeletal problems. If appropriate candidates are carefully identified, hyperbaric oxygen is a limb- and sometimes life-saving therapy. HBO therapy significantly reduces the length of the patient's hospital stay, amputation rate, and wound care expenses. Thus, it is a cost-effective modality. A clinician must understand the side effects and risks of HBO treatment. Close monitoring throughout the treatment is warranted to minimise the risk to the patients.

ABSTRACT

O exame do paciente é fundamental para se alcançar um diagnóstico correto e executar um plano de tratamento adequado. Nos casos de pacientes acometidos por traumatismo dento-alveolar a situaçäo näo é diferente. Os autores relatam um caso que, em decorrência de trauma, apresenta lesöes relativamente extensas de tecidos moles com pequeno envolvimento de dentes e tecidos de suporte e discutem aspectos sobre a intervençäo do clínico geral em casos desse tipo. Apesar do grande impacto causado à primeira vista, é necessário que se realize um exame detalhado, coletando dados para a elaboraçäo do diagnóstico, com o objetivo de favorecer o prognóstico dos casos e oferecer um atendimento de melhor qualidade

ABSTRACT

Desde el punto de vista clínico, existen aún problemas de manejo de la patología del hombro a pesar de la gran ayuda que han ofrecido las radiografías simples, la artrografía, el ultrasonido y la tomografía computada, debido principalmente a que las lesiones se localizan en los tejidos blandos. Una de las principales propiedades de la resonancia magnética es la de demostrar adecuadamente los tejidos blandos, por lo que el radiólogo debe conocer la imagen por resonancia magnética de la anatomía y la patología de esta importante articulación en las diferentes adquisiciones que se aplican en la rutina diaria. Este trabajo muestra en forma breve pero objetiva estos aspectos

ABSTRACT

We describe our experience in dealing with severe cervical spine injury in children below the age of 8 years. To highlight the importance of posterior soft tissue injury in the cervical spine trauma of children aged under 8 years We treated four such cases in the Riyadh Armed Forces Hospital all were victims of road traffic accidents All patients were resuscitated on arrival and required ventilation. All had head injuries. Cervical spine injuries were suspected; MRI showed the lesion. Three patients remained ventilator-dependent quadriplegic. One had Brown-Sequard syndrome and went on to full recovery. No cervical spine instability was noted. Widening of C1-C2 interspinous space of over 10 mm should alert the clinician to the possibility of posterior soft tissue injuries. Cervical spine injuries must always be suspected in the unconscious child. A 'normal' cervical spine X-ray does not exclude a spinal cord injury which can be diagnosed by an MRI
