ABSTRACT

Epidermoid cysts are most often benign cystic lesions, with uterine cervical localisation being very unusual. We present the case of a 52-year-old female patient diagnosed with an epidermoid cyst at the level of the uterine cervix. A bioptic and haemostatic uterine curettage was performed, followed by total hysterectomy with bilateral adnexectomy. The histopathologic analysis and immunohistochemical essay of the resection specimens confirmed the cervical epidermoid cyst. The presence of high-risk HPV (human papillomavirus) was only seen in the cervical mucosa. The exact etiopathogenesis is unknown, but postpartum cell implantation of reminiscent embryonic tissue can be involved in the development of these lesions.

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: In Romania, the abuse within the family of the minor child is a widespread phenomenon, its extent is insufficiently known because of ignorance/not reporting all the existing cases. METHODS: The participants of the research are represented by two independent groups from the NW Romania 2007-2011, one for sociological study (1544 parents and 1283 children) and another for forensic statistical study (2761 cases of abused children). The sociological study was carried out by analyzing questionnaires applied in schools located in Bihor County, both to children and parents. The statistical analysis was carried out by studying the cases of the physically, sexually, and psychologically abused minors, recorded at Bihor County Forensic Service. RESULTS: Physical neglect and physical abuse are the most common forms of child abuse. The forensic analysis highlight that most of the victims are male from urban areas. Physical abuse is more common in the 16-18 age group, psychological abuse in children aged between 6-10 yr, and sexual abuse in children under the age of 14 years. Girls were subject to sexual abuse, neglect, and emotional abuse, more frequently in rural areas; boys were most often victims of exploitation, physical, and emotional abuse in both urban and rural areas. CONCLUSION: The results of the study led to the formulation of general guidelines on this phenomenon and highlight the need for proposals to improve the current situation of child abuse within the family.

ABSTRACT

The oral cavity, including the lips, is considered one of the most important features of the face, taken into consideration when people inter-relate. Upper lip, in particular, can have a great influence on the aspect of a smile, which is why its proportional length and thickness can improve a lot a persons' smile. The aim of this study was to determine the average length of the upper lip in the Caucasian population, considering age and gender. The average upper lip length determined on the lateral skull radiography was 20.25±2.555 mm. The average length of the upper lip was 19.79±1.641 mm in the age category under 12 years and 20.32±2.664 mm in the age category over 12 years. The average length of the upper lip was 19.95±2.4 mm in women and 21.18±2.79 mm in men. We can conclude that women have lower values, while men have higher values of the upper lip length, and that the younger the patient is, the shorter the length of the upper lip is. Moreover, the Caucasian population proved to have a shorter upper lip compared to the Asian or Negroid population.

ABSTRACT

Ethylene glycol is a toxic alcohol that is mainly introduced into an organism through the digestive pathway. Its priority toxic metabolites are glycolic acid and oxalic acid. We present the case of a young person, of the male persuasion, without any personal pathological history, found unconscious and presenting signs of violence. The patient is emergency hospitalized presenting coma, convulsive syndrome, severe metabolic acidosis and a positive result for alcoholism. Anamnestic data is extremely poor. The results of the clinical and paraclinical examinations suggest a possible poisoning with toxic alcohols. Despite the drug treatment and the hemodialysis, the evolution is unfavorable, resulting in death one week after admission. Through the forensic examination, the followings were found: cerebral and leptomeningeal edema, focal cerebral microhemorrhages, bronchopneumonia, septic spleen, shock kidney, hepatic fatty dystrophy, excoriated plaques in the head area. The histopathological (HP) examination confirms the macroscopic diagnosis and identifies the presence of calcium oxalate crystals in the kidney tubules. Subsequently, the toxicological examination of the biological samples taken from the corpse at the forensic examination, confirms the presence of the glycolic acid. Postmortem, the investigation conducted by the criminal investigation authorities confirms the oral ingestion of antifreeze. The absence of a positive history, along with alcohol consumption, nonspecific clinical symptomatology and the absence of calcium oxalate in urine are trap elements in the diagnosis of acute ethylene glycol poisoning. The presence of calcium oxalate in tissues, identified through the HP examination, is an extremely important factor when establishing the cause of death.
