ABSTRACT
ABSTRACT Objective: To report a rare case of inverse Kipplel-Trenaunay. Case description: A 16-year-old girl with a grayish-depressed plaque on her left thigh. Angioresonance showed a vascular malformation affecting the skin and subcutaneous tissue. Comments: Inverse Klippel-Trenaunay is a Klippel-Trenaunay syndrome variation in which there are capillary and venous malformations associated to hypotrophy or shortening of the affected limb. Modifications on the limb's length or width result from alterations in bones, muscles, or subcutaneous tissues. It has few described cases. Further clinical and molecular studies must be performed for a proper understanding.
RESUMO Objetivo: Relatar um caso raro de Klippel-Trenaunay inverso. Descrição do caso: Menina de 16 anos com placa deprimida acinzentada na coxa esquerda, evidenciando-se, por meio de angioressonância, uma malformação vascular, acometendo a pele e tecidos subcutâneos. Comentários: Klippel-Trenaunay inverso é uma variante da síndrome de Klippel-Trenaunay em que há malformação capilar e venosa associada à hipotrofia ou encurtamento do membro afetado. Pode envolver acometimento ósseo, muscular ou subcutâneo, modificando o comprimento ou a circunferência do membro. Há poucos casos descritos, e mais estudos clínicos e moleculares precisam ser realizados para seu correto entendimento.

Total anomalous pulmonary venous drainage (TAPVD) is a rare entity which forms approximately 0.4 to 2% of all congenital heart disease. The infracardiac type usually involve obstructions on pulmonary venous connections and comprising a quarter of all TAPVD cases. The clinical findings in patients with obstructed infracardiac TAPVD could mimic respiratuary distress of several different etiologies during first hours of life. In this article,we present a case of a neonate with infracardiac type of TAPVD presented with only distinct subcutaneous veins of abdominal and thoracic wall.

The vascular changes in the subcutaneous connective tissue of rats induced by dentin bonding systems (one step) was studied and compared to those induced by saline solution (negative control) and Furacin (positive control), during the exudative phase of the inflammatory process. Twenty mg/kg of Evan's blue were injected intravenously in the vein of the rats' penises; 0.1 ml of each substance tested was inoculated in the subcutaneous tissue. After a 3 hour period the animals were sacrificed and their skins were excised and punched out with a standard steel 2.5 cm in diameter. The specimens were immediately immersed in 8 ml of formamide and taken to a double boiler for 72 hours at 37ºC, to remove the dye. The liquid containing the overflowed dye was filtered, analyzed in the spectrophotometer (620 nm) and classified according to the criteria established by Nagem-Filho, Pereira (1976). After statistical analysis, the irritative potential of the substances was ranked as follows: Furacin (severe) > Single Bond and Bond 1 (moderate - no significant differences between the dentin bonding systems tested) > saline solution (not significant as regards the irritation degree)
