Interdisciplinariedad en el diagnóstico del síndrome de clase III esquelético de Moyers / Interdisciplinarity in the diagnosis of Moyers skeletal class III syndrome

RESUMEN Fundamento: Dentro de las anomalías de la oclusión que provocan afectación estética y funcional en los pacientes, se destaca el síndrome de clase III esqueletal de Moyers, cuyo diagnóstico debe ser preciso y precoz. Objetivo: Cuantificar la concordancia entre los criterios diagnósticos ortodóncicos y médicos en los portadores del síndrome de clase III esquelético de Moyers. Metodología: Se realizó un estudio observacional, descriptivo y transversal en la Clínica Estomatológica Provincial Docente "Mártires del Moncada" de Santiago de Cuba desde enero de 2018 hasta enero de 2020. Se estudiaron, por Ortodoncia y diferentes especialidades médicas seleccionadas, 15 pacientes de 8 a 18 años de edad diagnosticados clínica y cefalométricamente con clase III esqueletal de Moyers. Resultados: El nivel de acuerdo entre ortodoncia y las diferentes especialidades médicas fue leve con Oftalmología (Kappa=0.10), casi perfecta con Ortopedia (Kappa=1.00), pobre por Gastroenterología y por Otorrinolaringología (Kappa de 0.09 y 0.10 respectivamente), resultados estadísticamente significativos solo con Ortopedia. Conclusiones: Es evidente la marcada concordancia entre los diagnósticos ortodóncicos y ortopédicos en el síndrome de clase III esquelético, a diferencia del resto de las especialidades médicas; probablemente asociado a la no estandarización de las evaluaciones clínicas.

ABSTRACT Background: Among the occlusion anomalies that cause esthetic and functional affectation in patients, Moyers skeletal class III syndrome stands out, its diagnosis should be accurate and early. Objective: To quantify the concordance between orthodontic and medical diagnostic criteria in patients with Moyers skeletal class III syndrome. Methodology: An observational, descriptive and cross-sectional study was conducted at the "Mártires del Moncada" Provincial Teaching Dental Care Clinic of Santiago de Cuba from January 2018 to January 2020. 15 patients aged 8 to 18 years clinically and cephalometrically diagnosed with Moyers skeletal class III were studied by Orthodontics and different selected medical specialties. Results: The level of agreement between Orthodontics and the different medical specialties was slight for Ophthalmology (Kappa=0.10), almost perfect for Orthopedics (Kappa=1.00), poor for Gastroenterology and Otolaryngology (Kappa of 0.09 and 0.10 respectively), statistically significant results only for Orthopedics. Conclusions: The manifest concordance between orthodontic and orthopedic diagnoses in skeletal class III syndrome is evident, unlike the rest of the medical specialties; probably associated with non-standard clinical evaluations.

A case of fetal skelectal anomaly of Campomelic syndrome / 대한산부인과학회잡지

Campomelic syndrome is a very rare skeletal dysplasia with a characteristic pattern of deformity involving the proximal and distal extremities, pelvic and shoulder girdles, thoracic cage and palate. Respiratory compromise often leads to death in early infancy. Etiology has not been determined although evidence suggests genetic heterogeneity. Cytogenetic study revealed high incidence of a 46,XY karyotype in phenotypic females. Recently, we had experienced a case of campomelic dysplasia at amenorrhea 30weeks and termination was done, so we report with a brief review of literature.

A Cse of Partial Trisomy 10q Syndrome / 대한주산의학회잡지

Partial trisomy 10q syndrome is a rare chromosome anomaly characterized by severe mental and growth retardation, craniofacial dysmorphia with prominent forehead, fine arched eyebrows, deep set small eyes and micrognathia, In addition, other physical manifestations have been reported as skeletal anomaly, congenital heart disease, inguinal hernia, and so on. We report a case of partial trisomy 10q syndrorne with certain stigmata which confirmed by chromosome analysis.
