RESUMEN

Natal teeth are defined as teeth that are present in the mouth at the time of birth. It must be considered that natal and neonatal teeth are conditions of fundamental importance not only for a dental surgeon but also for a paediatrician, since their presence may lead to numerous complications. Hence the purpose of the present paper is to review and discuss its clinical features, complications and management.

RESUMEN

Hepatic angiosarcoma (HAS) is an extremely rare liver tumor in children. We report a case of childhood HAS in a six year old girl who presented with acute abdominal pain and fever with a mass in epigastrium. Left hepatic lobectomy was performed with a clinical diagnosis of hepatoblastoma. Histopathological examination revealed features typical of hepatic angiosarcoma. The case is presented for its rarity and to discuss the interrelation between infantile hemangioendothelioma (IHE) and HAS.

RESUMEN

The primary objective of this study was to determine the response rates of a combination of gemcitabine and cisplatin in unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in Indian patients. The secondary objectives were to evaluate the toxicity, time to progressive disease and overall survival for this combination. Chemonaive patients with histopathologically proven, bidimensionally measurable, stage Ill or IV unresectable HCC were enrolled into this study. All the patients were required to have a Zubrod's performance status not greater than 2, should not have undergone prior radiotherapy and were required to have adequate major organ function. Patients received gemcitabine (1250 mg/m2 intravenously over 30 to 60 min) on days 1 and 8, and cisplatin (70 mg/m2 intravenously over 2 hours) on day land every 21 days. Response assessment was done by a Computed Tomography scan after every two cycles of chemotherapy. From May to December 1999, 30 patients were enrolled in the study; they were all eligible for efficacy and toxicity analysis. Six (20%) patients achieved a partial response and 13 (43%) patients demonstrated stable disease with 11 (37%) patients showing disease progression. The median time to progression was 18 weeks (range 1 to 74 weeks) and the median duration of response was 13 weeks (range 4 to 68 weeks). The 1-year survival rate was 27% and the median overall survival was 21 weeks (95% CI: 17 to 43 weeks). WHO grade 3 and 4 anemia was seen in 11 (37%) and 2 (7%) patients, respectively. Four (13%) patients each experienced grade 3 and 4 neutropenia and grade 3 and 4 thrombocytopenia was seen in 2 (7%) patients each. Major, non-hematologic toxicities were grade 4 elevated bilirubin levels and grade 3 oral toxicity, in 1 patient (3%) each. This regimen was well tolerated and did show activity in Indian patients with advanced unresectable HCC. There is a need to further evaluate this combination in order to define its role in the treatment of HCC.

RESUMEN

A case of low grade hemangiopericytoma of three years duration occurring in the upper end of the femur of a 70 year old man is described. Radiologically, the upper third of the right femur showed a destructive expansile osteolytic lesion with soft tissue extension. The tumour was partially encapsulated. Mitoses were 0-1 per 10 high power fields, suggesting the low grade malignant nature of the lesion. It is felt that all hemangiopericytomas occurring in bone should be considered biologically malignant.

RESUMEN

The pulmonary flow pattern was analysed by pulsed Doppler in 77 normal neonates, at < 48 hours (36 subjects), 49 to 96 hours (25 subjects) and 97 to 148 hours (16 subjects). From the flow velocity spectrum, using an built in computer system, the acceleration time and the ejection time were measured, and the ratio was calculated. This ratio was 0.24 +/- 0.08 in the subjects within 48 hours whereas this ratio was 0.53 +/- 0.11 in the subjects above 97 hours; thus the ratio increased with age. We noticed that the ratio obtained from the pulsed Doppler is useful in assessing the pulmonary vascular status, even in neonates.

RESUMEN

The most common visceral metastasis from oesophageal carcinomas are lungs and liver. A case of splenic metastasis from a squamous carcinoma of oesophagus is reported. To our knowledge, splenic metastasis without any nodal disease has not been described previously. The pattern of reported metastasis is summarised.

RESUMEN

Choice of an ideal, cost-effective and rapid diagnostic test for HIV infection is of immense value in developing countries like India where resources are limited. A number of commercial HIV antibody testing kits are now available with varying sensitivities and specificities. Six different commercial HIV kits namely, Wellcozyme, Flow HIV-TEKG, Abbott HIV EIA, Abbott VIA, Dip-stick EIA and Abbott env/core recombinant EIA were evaluated. Du-Pont Western blot (W.B.) kit was used as gold standard to compare the results. Of the 376 sera from various high-risk individuals screened, Wellcozyme kit yielded 100 per cent concordant results with W.B. Abbott VIA and Abbott env/core also yielded results in confirmation with W.B., excepting the fact that both detected one extra sample positive, which was negative in W.B. Abbott EIA yielded 4 false positive results. Dip-stick kit yielded the maximum number of false positives. The study indicated that 3 kits, namely Wellcozyme, Abbott VIA and Abbott EIA could be used to achieve optimum and acceptable results.
