ABSTRACT
O objetivo deste estudo clínico prospectivo randomizado foi analisar a influência de duas substâncias quimicas auxiliares na identificação de canais acessórios e no selamento do forame apical pelo cimento endodôntico e a prevalência desses canais na faixa etária de 13 a 79 anos, nos diferentes grupos dentários, em dentes vitais, não vitais e nos retratamentos endodônticos. Trezentos e um tratamentos endodônticos foram concluídos em 240 pacientes. f';s substâncias químicas auxiliares utilizadas foram a clorexidina gel 2% (n= 145) e o hipoclorito de sódio 5.25% (n= 156). Os dentes foram preparados pela técnica coroa-ápice com patência e ampliação do fora me apical e obturados pela técnica de termoplastificação da guta-percha. Três observadores independentes (triplo cego) avaliaram, radiograficamente, o preenchimento de canais acessórios e do forame apical que foi registrado e expresso em dados percentuais. Os dados foram analisados, estatisticamente, e os resultados mostraram que o forame apical foi selado pelo cimento endodôntico em 98.34% (296/301) e os canais acessórios foram preenchidos e visíveis radiograficamente em 47.84% (144/301) dos dentes tratados. Canais acessórios foram encontrados em 55% (99/180) dos dentes multirradiculares e em 37.20% (45/121) dos dentes unirradiculares. De acordo com o estado pulpar, canais acessórios foram encontrados em 55,20% (69/125) dos dentes vitais, 49.00% (49/100) dos dentes não vitais e 34.21% (26/76) dos retratamentos endodônticos. Concluiu-se que, entre os fatores analisados, não houve diferença estatisticamente significativa entre os dois grupos das substâncias químicas auxiliares analisadas.
The aim of this prospective randomized study, conducted in vivo, was to analyze the influence of two auxiliary chemicals in filling accessory canais and apical foramen by sealer and the prevalence of these channels in the age group 13 to 79 years, in various dental groups, in vital and non-vital teeth and root canal retreatment. Two hundred forty patients were treated and 301 endodontic treatments were completed. The auxiliary chemicals used were 2% chlorhexidine gel [n = 145) and 5.25% sodium hypochlorite (n = 156). The teeth were instrumented by crown-down technique with patency and enlargement of the apical foramen and obturated by the thermoplastic gutta-percha technique. Three independent observers (triple blind) evaluated radiographically obturation of accessory canais and apical foramen by the sealer that was recorded and expressed as a percentage. Data were statistically analyzed using the Binominal and Qui Quadrado tests. The results showed that the apical foramen was filled in 98.34% (296/301) and the accessories channels were filled and radiographically visible in 47.84% (144/301) of teeth treated. Accessory canais were found in 55% (99/180) of the teeth multirooted and 37.20% (45/121) of single-rooted teeth. According to the state of pulp, accessory canais were found in 55.20% (69/125) of vital teeth, 49.000/0 (49/100) of non-vital teeth and 34.21% (26/76) of endodontic retreatment. It was concluded that among the factors examined, there was no statistically significant difference between the two groups.

Se presenta el caso clínico de un dispositivo intrauterino ubicado en el lumen de la trompa de Falopio con hidrosalpinx secundario, diagnosticado en forma incidental al realizar una radiografía de columna lumbar, estudio complementado con ecotomografia transvaginal. Se realizó laparoscopia diagnóstica y salpingectomía sin complicaciones.
We present a case of asymptomatic IUD inserted in the right uterine tube, with secondary hydrosalpinx. The IUD was found during a non-related X-ray examination of lumbar spine. She underwent laparoscopic surgery and removal of the uterine tube, without any further complication. We discuss the current treatment of intraabdominal lUDs.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the frequency and relevance of the "sentinel clot" sign on CT for patients with traumatic intraperitoneal bladder rupture in a retrospective study. MATERIALS AND METHODS: During a recent 42-month period, 74 consecutive trauma patients (45 men, 29 women; age range, 12-84 years; mean age, 50.8 years) with gross hematuria were examined by the use of intravenous contrast-enhanced CT of the abdomen and pelvis, followed by retrograde cystography. Contrast-enhanced CT scanning was performed by using a helical CT scanner. CT images were retrospectively reviewed in consensus by two radiologists. The CT findings including the sentinel clot sign, pelvic fracture, traumatic injury to other abdominal viscera, and the degree of intraperitoneal free fluid were assessed and statistically analyzed using the two-tailed x2 test. RESULTS: Twenty of the 74 patients had intraperitoneal bladder rupture. The sentinel clot sign was seen for 16 patients (80%) with intraperitoneal bladder rupture and for four patients (7%) without intraperitoneal bladder rupture (p < 0.001). Pelvic fracture was noted in five patients (25%) with intraperitoneal bladder rupture and in 39 patients (72%) without intraperitoneal bladder rupture (p < 0.001). Intraperitoneal free fluid was found in all patients (100%) with intraperitoneal bladder rupture, irrespective of an associated intraabdominal visceral injury, whereas 19 (35%) of the 54 patients without intraperitoneal bladder rupture had intraperitoneal free fluid (p < 0.001). CONCLUSION: Detection and localization of the sentinel clot sign abutting on the bladder dome may improve the accuracy of CT in the diagnosis of traumatic intraperitoneal bladder rupture, especially when the patients present with gross hematuria.
