RESUMO

Introducción: El cáncer cervicouterino ocupa el tercer lugar como causa de defunción por neoplasias malignas a nivel mundial, afectando principalmente a los países de ingresos bajos y medianos. Hacia el 2020 se estimó una incidencia de 604 000 nuevos casos. Objetivo: Caracterizar los principales indicadores hospitalarios del Programa de Diagnóstico Precoz del Cáncer Cervicouterino. Métodos: Se realizó un estudio observacional, descriptivo y transversal, que permitió caracterizar los principales indicadores hospitalarios del Programa en el Servicio de Patología de Cuello del Hospital General Dr. Juan Bruno Zayas Alfonso de Santiago de Cuba, de enero del 2020 a diciembre del 2022. La población de estudio estuvo constituida por 443 mujeres. Los datos recopilados fueron analizados mediante técnicas de estadística descriptiva, expresándose en frecuencia y porcentajes. Resultados: De las mujeres estudiadas, 60,9 % presentaron lesión intraepitelial cervical de alto grado de malignidad, con 32,6 % positivo a cáncer cervicouterino. El porcentaje global de pruebas citológicas no útiles fue de 2,07 y sin células de la zona de transformación, de 4,01; ambos indicadores de calidad. Existió una alta significación en cuanto a la tasa de cobertura global de las mujeres en riesgo (K=0,615), demostrando que los resultados de la citología reflejan en gran medida los diagnósticos de la histología, con una buena concordancia. Conclusiones: La prueba citológica cérvico-vaginal sigue siendo el método diagnóstico de mayor valor para detectar neoplasia intraepitelial cervical y carcinoma en estadio precoz en grandes masas de población.


Introduction: Cervical cancer is the third leading cause of death from malignancies worldwide, affecting mainly low- and middle-income countries. By 2020 an incidence of 604,000 new cases was estimated. Objective: To characterize the main hospital indicators of the Cervical Cancer Early Diagnosis Program. Methods: An observational, descriptive and cross-sectional study was carried out to characterize the main hospital indicators of the Program in the Neck Pathology Service of the General Hospital Dr. Bruno Zayas Alfonso of Santiago de Cuba, from January 2020 to December 2022. The study population consisted of 443 women. The data collected were analyzed using descriptive statistic techniques, expressed in frequency and percentages. Results: Of the women studied, 60.9 %had cervical intraepithelial lesion of high degree of malignancy, with 32.6 % positive for cervical cancer. The overall percentage of useless cytological tests was 2.07 and no cells from the processing zone was 4.01, both quality indicators. There was a high significance in terms of the overall coverage rate of women at risk (K=0.615), showing that the results of the cytology largely reflect the diagnosis of histology, with a good agreement. Conclusions: Cervical-vaginal cytology remains the most valuable diagnostic method for detecting cervical intraepithelial neoplasm and early-stage carcinoma in large populations

RESUMO

Se presenta un caso femenino de dengue clásico (DC) en el marco de la epidemia 2023-2024 en la provincia de Misiones, con predominio de síntomas dermatológicos de exantemas máculo papulosos, habonosos y eritrodérmicos sobre los síntomas sindrómicos cardinales. Las lesiones presentan componente humoral y de extravasación, sin diátesis ni componentes purpúricos apreciables, presentando una rápida y efectiva evolución al eritema y la normalización con tratamiento antihistamínico y corticoide parenteral. De la misma manera se evalúan alteraciones analíticas hematológicas y hepáticas de gran magnitud, con escasa repercusión clínica, que se mensuran en función del riesgo relativo al dengue hemorrágico (DH) y el pronóstico de la paciente. (AU)


A female case of classic dengue (DC) is presented in the context of the 2023-2024 epidemic in the province of Misiones, with a predominance of dermatologic symptoms of maculopapular, hives, and erythrodermic rashes overlapping the cardinal syndromic symptoms. The lesions have a humoral and extravasation component, without any significant diathesis or purpuric components, showing rapid and effective progression to erythema and normalization with antihistamine and parenteral corticosteroid treatment. Similarly, hematologic and hepatic analytical alterations of great magnitude are evaluated, with little clinical impact, measured in terms of relative risk for hemorrhagic dengue (HD) and the prognosis of the patient.

RESUMO

Introducción: El virus del papiloma humano de alto riesgo (VPH-AR) es responsable del cáncer de cuello uterino y sus lesiones preneoplásicas. Los genotipos VPH16 y VPH18 son los más frecuentes en este cáncer. La integración del VPH-AR en el genoma de la célula hospedera es crucial en la carcinogénesis cervical, pero la etapa en que ocurre en la población chilena es incierta. Objetivo: Evaluar la integración de VPH16 y VPH18 en lesiones pre-neoplásicas de cuello uterino. Métodos: Se analizaron 108 muestras de raspados cervicales. El VPH se genotipificó mediante reacción de polimerasa en cadena (RPC) e hibridación no radiactiva. La integración de VPH16 y VPH18 se determinó por presencia del gen E2 mediante RPC. Resultados: VPH16 y VPH18 se detectaron en 36,1% y 12,0% de las muestras, respectivamente. El VPH16 se integró en 23,1% de los casos de VPH16, mientras que VPH18 se integró en 100% de las muestras positivas para este genotipo. Conclusiones: La integración VPH-AR es un evento temprano en la carcinogénesis cervical que ocurre en casi la mitad de las lesiones pre-neoplásicas y es más frecuente en VPH18 que en VPH16. La evaluación de la integración VPH-AR puede ser una herramienta útil para detectar el virus en la población chilena.


Background: High-risk Human Papillomaviruses (HR-HPVs) are the etiological agents of cervical cancer and its preneoplastic lesions. HPV16 and 18 are the most frequent HR-HPV genotypes detected in cervical cancer. HR-HPV genome integration into the host cell is an important event in the carcinogenic process. However, it remains uncertain which stage of cervical carcinogenesis HPV16 and 18 integration occurs in the Chilean population. Aim: The goal of this study was to evaluate HPV16 and HPV18 integration in preneoplastic lesions of the cervix. Methods: DNA was extracted from 108 cervical scrape samples with preneoplastic lesions. HPV was genotyped using PCR and non-radioactive hybridization. The integration status of HPV16 and HPV 18 was determined by evaluating the E2 gene presence through PCR. Results: HPV16 and HPV18 tested positive in 36.1% and 12.0% of samples, respectively. HPV16 was found integrated in 23.1% of HPV 16 cases, while HPV 18 in 100% of samples positive for this viral genotype. Conclusions: HR-HPV integration is an early event in cervical carcinogenesis, occurring in nearly half of preneoplastic lesions and being more frequent in HPV18 than in HPV16. The evaluation of HR-HPV integration can be utilized as a complementary tool for detecting HPV in the Chilean population.

Finalmente se llevó a cabo una prueba de χ2 de Pearson para establecer correlación entre variables dependientes e independientes, encontrando significancia estadística de p < 0.000 entre lesiones de lengua y condición sistémica y edad en relación a lesiones de lengua, paladar y labios con p < 0.000 (AU)


The purpose of this study is to analyze the prevalence of variants of normality and pathology in the mucosa of the oral cavity by anatomical area in a controlled population in a university undergraduate stomatological clinic in the state of Mexico. This is a cross-sectional, descriptive and observational study of 542 patients, of which 62.7% (340) belonged to the female gender and 37.3% (202) to the male gender, the age was distributed in a range of two to 85 years with a mean of 28 years and was categorized in five age groups: 2 to 12, 13 to 18, 19 to 35, 36 to 69 and > 70 years. A specialist in oral pathology, a specialist in pediatric dentistry and an intern in stomatology who served as a research assistant participated in this study. Thirteen variants of normality and 52 lesions in total were identified and reported by anatomical area, age range and gender. The number of conditions and lesions diagnosed per patient ranged from one to five in 87.27% and none were detected in 12.73% of the population studied. The most frequent variants of normality or conditions were fissured tongue with 12.17%, mucous appendage in the vestibular frenulum with 11.25% and Fordyce granules with 10.88%. The most prevalent lesions by anatomical area were: intradermal nevus with 2.39% in upper and lower external lip; simple cheilitis with 11.43% in the interphase interface of skin and mucosa of the lips (vermilion border); traumatic ulcer with 3.87% in labial mucosa; abscess of dental origin with 1.42 in gingiva; frenulum with low insertion 1.84% in frenulum; traumatic ulcer with 5. 53% in buccal mucosa; chronic atrophic candidiasis with 5.53% in palate; hypertrophic tonsils with 8.11% in tonsillar area; hairy tongue with 1.66% in tongue; traumatic ulcer with 3.69% in floor of mouth; pyogenic granuloma with 0.18% in alveolar process and finally; hypertrophy of labial salivary glands with 0.55% associated with the presence of orthodontic appliances. Finally, a Pearson's χ2 test was carried out to establish correlation between dependent and independent variables, finding statistical significance of p < 0.000 between tongue lesions and systemic condition and age in relation to tongue, palate and lip lesions with a p < 0.000 (AU)

RESUMO

Background: The tongue is susceptible to a multitude of conditions that can be of developmental, neoplastic, or inflammatory nature, whose occurrence varies globally by age, sex, and ethnicity. The objective of the present study was to determine the incidence of tongue lesions among cases managed in a tertiary hospital in Tanzania. Methods: This study analyzed histological results of patients with tongue lesions diagnosed between 2016 and 2021. Data on the age and sex of the patients and histological diagnosis were collected. Data analysis was done using Statistical Package for the Social Sciences version 27. Results: A total of 190 samples of tongue lesions were studied and 18 different histological diagnoses were observed. Generally, a majority (84.2%) of the biopsied tongue lesions were malignant. The most common (74.7%) lesions diagnosed were squamous cell carcinoma followed by hemangioma (5.3%). A significant association was noted between the nature of the lesions and the age group and sex of the patients. Conclusion: This analysis depicts that tongue lesions are frequently encountered in patients managed in tertiary health facilities in Tanzania. A majority of these lesions are malignant tumors. The sex and age of the patients are determining factors for the occurrence of tongue lesions

RESUMO

Objective@#To investigate the clinical characteristics, diagnosis and treatment of severe combined periodontal-endodontic lesions in a double-rooted maxillary lateral incisor with a palatal radicular groove and to provide a reference for clinical diagnosis and treatment.@*Methods@#A patient with a double-rooted left maxillary lateral incisor with a palatal radicular groove and severe combined periodontal-endodontic lesions underwent complete root canal therapy and intentional replantation, and a retrospective analysis of the management of this type of patient was performed based on the literature.@*Results@#The 3-year follow-up examination revealed no discomfort, good healing of the upper left lateral incisor, no pathological loosening, and a palatal gingival sulcus was found at a depth of approximately 1 mm. Review of the literature showed that the prognosis of the affected tooth and the choice of treatment plan were correlated with the length and depth of extension of the lingual groove toward the root, the periodontal condition and the pulpal status of the affected tooth. For minor PRGs or for affected teeth with no loss of pulpal viability, flap surgery and odontoplasty can be used to avoid endodontic treatment or retreatment. For deep or long lingual grooves that result in significant loss of periodontal tissue, endodontic treatment, odontoplasty, or closure of the grooves and guided tissue regeneration are needed. In the case of PRGs with double root formation, the affected tooth can be preserved via root canal therapy, removal of the small root and filling with apical restorative material, and intentional replantation.@*Conclusion@#In cases of severe combined periodontal-endodontic lesions due to palatal radicular grooves occurring in double-rooted maxillary lateral incisors, clinical presentation and imaging can prevent missed diagnoses, and appropriate treatment should be based on the length and depth of lingual grooves extending toward the roots, periodontal conditions, and pulpal status of the affected teeth.

RESUMO

@#Esophageal cancer is an aggressive malignancy with high morbidity and poor prognosis. Symptoms of early esophageal cancer are insidious and difficult to detect, while advanced esophageal obstruction, lesion infiltration and metastasis seriously affect patients’ quality of life. Early detection and treatment can help to increase the survival chance of patients. Recently, artificial intelligence (AI) has shown remarkable success in diagnosis of esophageal cancer, highlighting the great potential of new AI-assisted diagnostic modalities. This paper aims to review recent progress of AI in the diagnosis of esophageal cancer and to prospect its clinical application.

RESUMO

@#A cemental tear is defined as an incomplete or complete detachment of the cementum along the dentino-cemental junction (CDJ) or the incremental line within the body of the cementum, which can also involve part of the root dentine adjacent to the cementum. The pathogenesis of cemental tears is not fully elucidated. From the literature review, possible predisposing factors were identified, including tooth type, sex, age, periodontitis, previous periodontal treatment or root canal treatment, history of dental trauma, and occlusal trauma or excessive occlusal force. The morphology of cemental tears can be either piece-shaped or U-shaped, which usually contributes to periodontal and periapical breakdown. Clinically, cemental tears have a unitary periodontal pocket and present with symptoms mimicking localized periodontitis, apical periodontitis, and vertical root fractures. Imaging examination is of great significance for the clinical diagnosis of cemental tears, which often manifest as thin ‘prickle-like’ radiopaque masses located longitudinally adjacent to the affected root surface. Exploratory surgery is needed in some cases. Although intraoperative cemental fragments and cemental lines on the root surface can assist in the diagnostic process, histopathology examination is the gold standard for the diagnosis of cemental tears. The treatment methods vary depending on the timing of the correct diagnosis and the clinical or radiological manifestations. With the development of regenerative biomaterials and the development of intentional replantation, an increasing number of affected teeth can survive for a long time. The aim of this review is to systematically describe the biological basis and predisposing factors, clinical features, radiographic and histological characteristics, diagnosis and clinical management of cemental tears, and treatment outcomes to help make a clear diagnosis and develop a personalized treatment plan.

RESUMO

Objective@#To investigate the classification, clinical manifestations, diagnosis, differential diagnosis and treatment of oral lichenoid lesions and provide a reference for clinical practice.@*Methods@#Hospital ethical approval and patient informed consent were obtained. We report a case of oral lichenoid lesion in children and review the diagnosis and treatment of oral lichenoid damage in the literature.@*Results@#The patient experienced repeated rupture of the dorsal surface of the tongue with pain for more than 3 years. There was a large area of tongue back surface erosion with an irregular shape, surrounded by pearly-white lines. The left erosive area was accompanied by tissue hyperplasia, which was approximately 1.5 cm × 2.0 cm, with tough texture and broad masses. The pathological diagnosis of the patient was oral lichenoid lesion. After biopsy of the dorsal surface of the tongue, the pathological diagnosis of the patient was granulomatous inflammation. The final diagnosis of lichenoid granulomatous stomatitis was made on the basis of the patient's intraoral damage features, systemic history, medication history and histopathological findings. A review of the literature suggests that oral lichenoid lesions have an unknown etiology and need to be clinically differentiated from oral lichen planus, oral lichenoid drug reactions, oral lichenoid contact damage and chronic ulcerative stomatitis. The clinical treatment of oral lichen planus is based on the topical and/or systemic use of glucocorticoids.@*Conclusion@#There are still no uniform criteria for the classification and diagnosis of oral lichenoid lesions. They rely mainly on history taking, clinical manifestations and histopathological findings, and the treatment is mainly based on the topical and/or systemic use of glucocorticoids.

RESUMO

El desgaste natural de los dientes ocurre dependiendo de factores como: calidad de la estructura dental, calidad de la saliva, biotipo facial que determina la fuerza de mordida; de acuerdo a estos factores locales bucales se va envejeciendo la dentadura. Pero los deportistas presentan un patrón de desgaste mayor y continuo debido al tipo de deporte que practican, las horas de entrenamiento, el consumo de bebidas con pH ácido, el cepillado dental vigoroso; todos estos factores pueden conducirlos a que desarrollen lesiones no cariosas (AU)


The natural wear of the teeth occurs depending on factors such as: quality of the dental structure, quality of the saliva, facial biotype that determines the bite force, according to these local oral factors, the teeth age. But in athletes they present a pattern of greater and continuous wear due to the type of sport they practice, the hours of training, the consumption of drinks with an acidic pH, vigorous tooth brushing; all these factors can lead them to develop non-carious lesions (AU)

RESUMO

Objetivo: Determinar las características del trauma ocular en pacientes diagnosticados con catarata traumática. Métodos: Se realizó un estudio observacional descriptivo de corte transversal con 335 pacientes diagnosticados con catarata traumática. Las variables incluyeron edad, sexo, ojo afectado, lugar de ocurrencia del trauma, uso de protección en el entorno laboral, tipo de trauma ocular, daños asociados, morfología de la catarata y zona de lesión. Resultados: La edad promedio de los pacientes fue de 52,2 ± 14,8 años. Se observó un predominio del sexo masculino (75,5 por ciento) y la mayoría de los casos presentaron un trauma ocular cerrado (70,4 por ciento). El ojo derecho fue más afectado (64,8 por ciento). En cuanto al lugar de ocurrencia del traumatismo ocular, el 49,9 por ciento de los casos se produjo en el contexto laboral, y la mayoría de los pacientes que experimentaron un trauma ocular abierto no utilizaban protección ocular. Las lesiones asociadas más comunes fueron el aumento de la presión intraocular, la ruptura de la cápsula y las sinequias, la diálisis del iris. En cuanto a la morfología de las cataratas, se observó que predominaba la opacidad total. Conclusiones: Este estudio subraya la importancia de estrategias preventivas, especialmente en entornos laborales propensos a lesiones oculares. La falta de protección ocular en casos de trauma ocular abierto enfatiza la necesidad de concienciar a la población sobre la importancia de medidas de seguridad adecuadas. Estos hallazgos pueden guiar intervenciones clínicas y políticas de salud pública para reducir la incidencia y las secuelas de la catarata traumática(AU)


Objective: Determine the characteristics of ocular trauma in patients diagnosed with traumatic cataract. Methods: A cross-sectional descriptive observational study was carried out with 335 patients diagnosed with traumatic cataract. The variables included age, sex, affected eye, location of trauma occurrence, use of protection in the work environment, type of ocular trauma, associated damage, cataract morphology and area of injury. Results: The average age of the patients was 52.2 ± 14.8 years. A predominance of males was observed (75.5 percent) and the majority of cases presented blunt ocular trauma (70.4 percent). The right eye was more affected (64.8 percent). Regarding the place of occurrence of ocular trauma, 49.9 percent of cases occurred in the work context, and the majority of patients who experienced open ocular trauma did not use eye protection. The most common associated injuries were increased intraocular pressure, capsule rupture and synechiae, iris dialysis. Regarding the morphology of the cataracts, it was observed that total opacity predominated. Conclusions: This study highlights the importance of preventive strategies, especially in work environments prone to eye injuries. The lack of eye protection in cases of open eye trauma emphasizes the need to raise public awareness about the importance of adequate safety measures. These findings may guide clinical interventions and public health policies to reduce the incidence and sequelae of traumatic cataract(AU)

RESUMO

ABSTRACT Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) is a disease with unknown etiology. It presents as single-system (affecting a single organ or tissue) or as multisystem (with or without risk organ involvement). The oral cavity may be involved or be the site of the first manifestation Aim To describe, group, and determine the frequency of oral lesions in pediatric patients with LCH, and to relate these lesions to age and the different disease subtypes Materials and Method Clinical and radiographic examinations were used to evaluate 95 patients diagnosed with LCH, aged 0 to 16 years, who were referred to the Department of Comprehensive Pediatric Dentistry at the School of Dentistry, University of Buenos Aires. Clinical histories were prepared and informed consents obtained. Lesions were diagnosed by observation, palpation and biopsies, and grouped according to affected tissues into bone, mucosal, and bone-mucosal Results 42.1% presented oral lesions, and in 14.73%, these lesions were the first manifestation of LCH. Ninety percent presented only bone lesions, while the remaining 10% presented bone-mucosal and mucosal lesions. In the single-system subtype, 52.5% presented bone lesions. In the multisystem subtypes (with or without risk organs), all three types of lesions were found. The association between age at which LCH was diagnosed and oral tissue involvement showed that bone-mucosal lesions occur in young children (average age 1.4 years) diagnosed with multisystem LCH. Oral mucosa was only affected in reactivations of the disease Conclusions A high frequency of oral lesions was observed, which were sometimes the first manifestation of the disease, most often affecting bone tissue. Dentists can play an active role in the initial diagnosis of the disease.


RESUMEN La Histiocitosis de células de Langerhans (LCH) (Langerhans cell histiocytosis) es una enfermedad de etiología aún desconocida. Se presenta en forma unisistémica (afecta un solo órgano o tejido) o multisistémica (con o sin órganos de riesgo afectados). La cavidad bucal puede estar comprometida o ser el sitio de la primera manifestación Objetivo describir, agrupar y determinar la frecuencia de las lesiones bucales de pacientes pediátricos con LCH, relacionarlas con la edad y los diferentes subtipos de la enfermedad Materiales y Método se evaluaron mediante exámenes clínicos y radiográficos 95 pacientes entre 0 y 16 años con diagnóstico de LCH, derivados a la Cátedra de Odontología Integral Niños, Facultad de Odontología, Universidad de Buenos Aires. Se confeccionaron historias clínicas y se obtuvieron los consentimientos informados. Las lesiones fueron diagnosticadas a través de observación, palpación y biopsias, y se agruparon según los tejidos afectados en óseo, mucoso y óseo-mucoso Resultados el 42.1% presentó lesiones bucales y en el 14.73% estas fueron la primera manifestación de LCH. El 90% mostró solo lesiones óseas, mientras que en el 10 % restante se observaron lesiones óseo-mucosas y mucosas. En el subtipo unisistémico el 52.5% presentó lesiones óseas. En los subtipos multisistémicos, "con" o "sin" órganos de riesgo, se hallaron los tres tipos de lesiones. La relación entre la edad de diagnóstico de LCH y el compromiso de tejidos bucales evidenció que las lesiones óseo-mucosas ocurren en niños pequeños (edad promedio 1.4 años) con diagnóstico de LCH multisistémica. La mucosa bucal solo se vio afectada en las reactivaciones de la enfermedad Conclusiones Se observó una alta frecuencia de lesiones bucales, siendo en ocasiones la primera manifestación de la enfermedad, afectando con mayor frecuencia al tejido óseo. El odontólogo puede desempeñar un rol activo en el diagnóstico inicial de la enfermedad.

RESUMO

Benign vocal fold lesions (BVFLs) are acquired structural anomalies of the vocal folds, and these are primarily a result of vocal abuse or phonotrauma. Phonotraumatic lesions are not generally regarded as recurrent, provided that appropriate behavioral changes are made after resolution or surgical removal. Voice therapy plays a crucial role in this aspect. The aim of this article is to propose a structured pre- and post-operative voice therapy program for patients undergoing surgical intervention for BVFLs. Voice therapy post-surgery has been proven to reduce the rate of recurrence in BVFLs. Having a standard treatment protocol is a useful tool for the therapist, particularly one without extensive voice training.


Las lesiones benignas de los pliegues vocales (LBPV) son anomalías estructurales adquiridas de los pliegues vocales, y son principalmente el resultado de un abuso vocal o fonotrauma. Las lesiones fonotraumáticas generalmente no se consideran recurrentes, siempre que se realicen cambios apropiados en el comportamiento después de la resolución o la excisión quirúrgica. La terapia vocal juega un papel crucial en este aspecto. El objetivo de este artículo es proponer un programa estructurado de terapia de voz pre y postoperatorio para pacientes que son expuestos a una intervención quirúrgica para LBPV. Se ha demostrado que la terapia de voz después de la cirugía reduce la tasa de recurrencia en LBPV. Tener un protocolo de tratamiento estándar es una herramienta útil para el terapeuta, particularmente uno sin un entrenamiento extenso en patología de la voz.

RESUMO

La Displasia Cemento Ósea Florida corresponde a un tipo de lesión fibro ósea caracterizada por presentar un hueso trabecular con apariencia de tejido conectivo fibroso con áreas similares al cemento radicular. Afecta principalmente a mandíbula, a mujeres y a personas de etnia africana entre la cuarta a la quinta década. Posee crecimiento limitado, presentación de forma simétrica, bilateral y capacidad de afectar de uno a más cuadrantes. Tiene tres etapas de desarrollo, que se presentan con aspecto radiográfico diferente. En la primera etapa se aprecia un área radiolúcida, en la segunda etapa se visualizan radiopacidades circunscritas al área radiolúcida; y en la tercera etapa se observa una clara radiopacidad alrededor de la lesión. Para su correcto diagnóstico se necesita una cuidadosa correlación de los hallazgos clínicos, imagenológicos, de laboratorio e histopatológicos. Se presenta el caso de una paciente de género femenino de 70 años diagnosticada con Displasia Cemento Ósea Florida.


Florid Cemento-Osseous Dysplasia is a type of fibro-osseous lesion characterized by a trabecular bone with the appearance of fibrous connective tissue with areas similar to root cement. It mainly affects the jaw, women and people of African ethnicity between the fourth and fifth decades. It has limited growth, a symmetrical, bilateral presentation and the ability to affect one or more quadrants. It has three stages of development, with different radiographic appearance. The first stage shows a radiolucent area, the second stage shows radiopacities circumscribed to the radiolucent area; and in the third stage a clear radiopacity is observed around the lesion. For its correct diagnosis, a careful correlation of clinical, imaging, laboratory and histopathological findings is needed. The case of a 70-year-old female patient diagnosed with Florid Cemento-Osseous Dysplasia is presented.

RESUMO

Fundamento: el carcinoma basocelular es un tumor maligno muy frecuente en el ser humano. Se considera invasivo de forma local, además de agresivo y destructivo. Objetivo: mostrar el comportamiento de los pacientes con carcinoma basocelular diagnosticados por dermatoscopia en consulta de dermatología del Hospital Universitario Miguel Enríquez, entre junio de 2020 y mayo de 2021. Método: se realizó un estudio descriptivo, de corte transversal, para mostrar el comportamiento de los pacientes con carcinoma basocelular que asistieron a la consulta de dermatología del Hospital Universitario Miguel Enríquez en el periodo de junio 2020 a mayo 2021. El universo de estudio se conformó por los pacientes mayores de 18 años que presentaron una o varias lesiones presuntivas de carcinoma basocelular menores de 3 cm de diámetro. Se utilizaron las variables: edad, sexo, fototipo de piel, formas clínicas, patrones dermatoscópicos, topografía de la lesión, ocupación relacionada o no con la exposición solar. Se trabajó con frecuencias absolutas, porcentaje, media, desviación estándar, valores máximos y mínimos, la razón, pruebas de ji-cuadrado y t de student, con significación p≤0,05. Resultados: predominó en ancianos (66,4±14,9 años), en hombres (54,1 %), con fototipo 2 (57,8 %), y en nariz el 33,9 %. La forma nodular fue más frecuente (41,3 %), ocupación expuesta al sol (66,9 %), tamaño promedio de la lesión 1,4 cm. La dermatoscopia mostró predominio de los vasos arborizantes (73,4 %). Por histología se confirmó el 90,8 % de los casos. Conclusiones: predominaron entre los pacientes los ancianos, con fototipo 2. La forma nodular fue más frecuente, el tamaño promedio de la lesión fue de 1,4 cm. La dermatoscopia mostró predominio de los vasos arborizantes. La dermatoscopía resultó ser una herramienta necesaria para el uso sistemático en dermatología.


Foundation: basal cell carcinoma is a very common malignant tumor in humans. It is considered locally invasive, also aggressive and destructive. Objective: to show the behavior of patients with basal cell carcinoma diagnosed by dermoscopy in dermatology clinic of the Miguel Enríquez University Hospital, between June 2020 and May 2021. Method: a descriptive, cross-sectional study was carried out to show the behavior of patients with basal cell carcinoma who attended the dermatology consultation at the Miguel Enríquez University Hospital from June 2020 to May 2021. The universe of study was made up of patients older than 18 years who presented one or more presumptive lesions of basal cell carcinoma less than 3 cm in diameter. The variables used were: age, sex, skin phototype, clinical forms, dermoscopic patterns, topography of the lesion, occupation related or not to sun exposure. We worked with absolute frequencies, percentage, mean, standard deviation, maximum and minimum values, the ratio, chi-square and student's t tests, with significance p≤0.05. Results: it prevailed in the elderly (66.4±14.9 years), in men (54.1 %), with phototype 2 (57.8 %), and in the nose 33.9 %. The nodular form was more frequent (41.3 %), occupation exposed to the sun (66.9 %), average size of the lesion 1.4 cm. Dermoscopy showed a predominance of arborizing vessels (73.4 %). By histology, 90.8 % of the cases were confirmed. Conclusions: the elderly prevailed among the patients, with phototype 2. The nodular form was more frequent, the average size of the lesion was 1.4 cm. Dermoscopy showed a predominance of arborizing vessels. Dermoscopy turned out to be a necessary tool for systematic use in dermatology.

RESUMO

Introducción: las lesiones cervicales no cariosas (NCCL, por sus siglas en inglés) son un grupo de lesiones que afectan el área cervical del órgano dental causando hipersensibilidad dentinaria y defectos estéticos. Objetivo: analizar la literatura sobre las lesiones cervicales no cariosas, su etiología, consideraciones anatómicas, características morfológicas de la lesión y tratamientos no restaurativos. Material y métodos: se realizó una búsqueda en la base de datos PubMed, utilizando las palabras clave: non-carious cervical lesions OR noncarious cervical lesions OR tooth wear OR tooth erosion OR dental abfraction OR abfraction, recopilando un total de 78 artículos. Resultados: es necesario determinar la etiología antes de seleccionar las estrategias de tratamiento para las lesiones cervicales no cariosas. Conocer los distintos tipos de tejidos que componen al órgano dentario facilita la comprensión de los factores que participan en el desarrollo de las lesiones cervicales no cariosas. Esto permite que el tratamiento se enfoque más en la causa del problema que en los síntomas. Con esto podemos modificar diversos factores de manera interceptiva, los tratamientos de terapia con láser y compuestos tópicos son una estrategia mínimamente invasiva. Conclusiones: la mejor manera de describir a las lesiones cervicales no cariosas sería como una enfermedad multifactorial. Se debe prestar especial atención en los métodos de diagnóstico, identificando cofactores que propicien el avance de la lesión, como son la fricción y la biocorrosión. Esta revisión brinda datos que asocian a los factores oclusales como una de las principales causas de una enfermedad que afecta a más de la mitad de la población adulta (AU)


Introduction: non-carious cervical lesions (NCCL) are a group of lesions that affect the cervical area of the dental organ causing dentin hypersensitivity and cosmetic defects. Objective: to know, through a systematic review, the current state of non-carious cervical lesions. Material and methods: a search was conducted in the PubMed database, using the keywords: non-carious cervical lesions OR noncarious cervical lesions OR tooth wear OR tooth erosion OR dental abfraction OR abfraction, compiling a total of 78 articles. Results: determining etiology is necessary before selecting treatment strategies for non-carious cervical lesions (NCCL). Know the different types of tissues that make up the dentary organ, facilitate the understanding of the factors involved in the development of noncarious al cervical lesions. This allows treatment to focus more on the cause of the problem than on symptoms. With this we can modify various factors in an interceptive way, laser therapy treatments and topical compounds, are a minimally invasive strategy. Conclusions: the best way to describe non-carious al cervical lesions would be as a multifactorial disease to which special attention should be paid to both diagnostic methods, identifying cofactors that promote the progression of injury, such as friction and biocorrosion. This review provides data that associates occlusal factors as one of the main causes of a disease that affects more than half of the adult population (AU)

RESUMO

Los cambios demográficos y epidemiológicos actuales determinarán un aumento en la prevalencia e incidencia de caries, específicamente lesiones de caries radicular (RCLs, por sus siglas en inglés) en personas mayores, por lo que la necesidad de tratamiento de mayor cobertura y efectividad será también cada vez mayor. Este artículo resume en español la evidencia actual disponible acerca de las recomendaciones clínicas para las intervenciones preventivas, no invasivas, micro o mínimamente invasivas e invasivas para el manejo de la caries dental en personas mayores, con especial énfasis en RCLs. La presente publicación se basa en un taller de consenso, seguido de un proceso de consenso e-Delphi, realizado por un panel de expertos nominados por la Organización Europea para la Investigación en Caries (ORCA), la Federación Europea de Odontología Conservadora (EFCD) y la Federación Alemana de Odontología Conservadora (DGZ). El propósito de este artículo es presentar las principales conclusiones alcanzadas en el consenso de ORCA/EFCD/DGZ para permitir una mejor difusión del conocimiento y la aplicación de estos conceptos en la práctica clínica, orientando la correcta toma de decisiones en el manejo de la enfermedad y RCLs en las personas mayores.


Current demographic and epidemiological changes will condition increased caries prevalence and incidence, specifically root caries lesions (RCLs) in the elderly. There will be a need, therefore, for therapeutic approaches with greater coverage and effectiveness. This article summarizes, in Spanish, the current available evidence leading to clinical recommendations for preventive, non-invasive, micro or minimally invasive and invasive interventions for the management of dental caries in older people, with special emphasis on RCLs. This publication is based on a consensus workshop, followed by an e-Delphi consensus process, conducted by a panel of experts nominated by the European Organization for Caries Research (ORCA), the European Federation of Conservative Dentistry (EFCD) and the German Federation of Conservative Dentistry (DGZ). The purpose of this article is to present the main conclusions reached in the ORCA/EFCD/DGZ consensus to allow a better dissemination of knowledge and the application of these concepts in clinical practice, guiding the correct decision-making for the disease management and the RCLs in the elderly.

RESUMO

En mayo de 2022 se reportó un aumento de casos de viruela símica (mpox en inglés) en el mundo, cuyo comportamiento epidemiológico y clínico, particularmente en pacientes con infección por VIH, condujo a la declaración del brote de mpox 2022 como emergencia de salud pública internacional. Se presenta el caso de un paciente con infección por VIH que cursó con mpox grave y fulminante, con placas necróticas en párpado y membrana inflamatoria sobre la superficie ocular; mucosa oral con lesiones blanquecinas y úlceras en lengua; induración de tejidos blandos y lesiones necróticas en los pies. Tras múltiples complicaciones, se convirtió en la primera víctima fatal reportada en Ecuador en 2022. En pacientes con infección por VIH, mpox puede presentarse como un agente oportunista, causando lesiones cutáneas graves, con o sin manifestaciones sistémicas.


In May 2022 several cases of mpox were reported worldwide, whose epidemiological and clinical outcome, particularly in patients seropositive for HIV, led to declaring the 2022 mpox outbreak as a public health emergency. We describe a case of a patient with HIV infection and severe and fulminant mpox, with necrotic plaques on the eyelid and an inflammatory membrane on the ocular surface; oral mucosa with whitish lesions and ulcers on the tongue; soft tissues induration, and necrotic lesions on the feet. After multiple complications, he became the first fatality reported in Ecuador in 2022. In HIV-infected patients mpox can be considered an opportunistic agent, with severe skin lesions with or without systemic manifestations.

RESUMO

Introducción: La histoplasmosis es una micosis sistémica que afecta a humanos, su agente Histoplasma capsulatum, hongo dimorfo, es ubicuo en la naturaleza. Frecuentemente se presenta como reactivación en personas con infección por VIH/SIDA, con manifestaciones polimórficas y diseminadas. Las lesiones mucocutáneas son una importante llave diagnóstica. Objetivo: Contribuir al conocimiento de esta patología a través del reporte de los diagnósticos de laboratorio de histoplasmosis realizados en Uruguay en los últimos 10 años. Materiales y Métodos: Se realizó un estudio observacional, retrospectivo de las histoplasmosis diagnosticadas en el laboratorio de referencia de Micología de Facultad de Medicina y dos laboratorios clínicos. Se enrolaron los registros clínicos y analíticos asociados. Resultados: Fueron 69 los diagnósticos de histoplasmosis. Más de 80% correspondió a personas con infección por VIH/SIDA. El 62,3% del total presentó lesiones de piel y/o mucosas y en 58% el diagnóstico se realizó mediante el estudio de estas. El 62,3% de los diagnósticos se realizaron mediante la visualización al microscopio óptico de frotis coloreados. Conclusiones: La mayoría de las histoplasmosis se vinculan a la infección por VIH/SIDA. El estudio micológico de las lesiones de piel y/o de mucosas, es accesible, mínimamente invasivo, rápido y presenta una excelente performance diagnóstica.


Background: Histoplasmosis is a systemic mycosis that affects humans, its agent Histoplasma capsulatum, a dimorphic fungus, is ubiquitous in nature. It frequently presents as reactivation in people with HIV/AIDS infection, with polymorphic and disseminated manifestations. Mucocutaneous lesions are characteristic and an important diagnostic key. Aim: To contribute to the knowledge of this pathology through the report of histoplasmosis laboratory diagnosis made in Uruguay in the last 10 years. Methods: We conducted an observational, retrospective study of diagnosed histoplasmosis in the Mycology reference laboratory of the Faculty of Medicine and two clinical laboratories. Associated clinical and analytical records were obtained. Results: There were 69 histoplasmosis diagnoses. More than 80% corresponded to people with HIV/AIDS infection. 62.3% of the total presented skin and/or mucosal lesions and in 58% the diagnosis was made by studying them. 62.3% of the diagnoses were initially made by viewing colored smears under an optical microscope. Conclusions: Most histoplasmosis is linked to HIV/AIDS infection. Exposure to a high fungal load is a constant in cases of immunocompetent individuals. The mycological study of skin and/or mucosal lesions is accessible, minimally invasive, fast and has excellent diagnostic performance.

RESUMO

Las lesiones fibro-óseas son consideradas benignas y componen un grupo de patologías de desórdenes que se caracterizan por el reemplazo de un hueso normal por un tejido compuesto de fibras colágenas, fibroblastos y tejido mineralizado. Presentamos un hallazgo radiográfico obtenido de un paciente de sexo masculino de 41 años de edad que asiste a un centro de radiología para realizarse una radiografía panorámica, el examen revela un interesante hallazgo radiográfico en la hemi mandíbula izquierda, donde se observa una lesión fibro-ósea con expansión ósea a nivel de reborde marginal y cortical basal mandibular, desplazamiento de canal mandibular, desplazamiento dentario, compromiso de cortical alveolar y rizálisis en diferentes niveles en los dientes adyacentes a la lesión. De acuerdo a los antecedentes anteriores se establece una hipótesis diagnóstica de Fibroma Osificante de larga data debido a su radiopacidad. La Organización Mundial de la Salud lo clasifica como una neoplasia ósea benigna con afección al esqueleto craneofacial, de mayor incidencia en mandíbula, se presenta generalmente entre la 3º y 4º década de vida. Concluimos que las lesiones fibro-óseas pueden ser detectadas como un hallazgo radiográfico, esto es relevante para un tratamiento precoz, sin embargo, el diagnóstico debe realizarse complementando los antecedentes clínicos e histopatológicos de la lesión, poniendo especial atención en el diagnóstico diferencial.


Fibro-osseous lesions are considered benign and make up a group of disorder pathologies that are characterized by the replacement of normal bone by tissue composed of collagen fibers, fibroblasts, and mineralized tissue. We present a radiographic finding obtained from a 41-year-old male patient who attended a radiology center for a panoramic radiograph. The examination revealed an interesting radiographic finding in the left hemi-mandible, where a fibro-osseous lesion was observed. with bone expansion at the level of the marginal ridge and basal mandibular cortex, displacement of the mandibular canal, dental displacement, compromise of the alveolar cortex and rizalysis at different levels in the teeth adjacent to the lesion. According to the previous antecedents, a long-standing diagnostic hypothesis of Ossifying Fibroma is established due to its radiopacity. The World Health Organization classifies it as a benign bone neoplasm affecting the craniofacial skeleton, with the highest incidence in the jaw, generally presenting between the 3rd and 4th decade of life. We conclude that fibro-osseous lesions can be detected as a radiographic finding, this is relevant for early treatment, however the diagnosis must be made by complementing the clinical and histopathological history of the lesion, paying special attention to the differential diagnosis.
