ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to determine the prevalence of lesions of the oral mucosa in Mexican pediatric patients. METHODS: Complete oral exploration in search of oral lesions was performed in all pediatric patients who attended the prevention service at C.E.O. during a period of 2 months. RESULTS: A total 86 lesions (7.38%) were detected, 59.31% in males and 40.69% in females with an age range of 1 to 16 years. The most frequent lesions were fibrous hyperplasia (43.02%), erythematous candidiosis (25.58%), and oral ulcers (16.27%). CONCLUSIONS: Of the lesions detected, 70.93% were secondary to poor oral hygiene and the use of orthodontic apparatus. It is important to be aggressive in oral hygiene to decrease the prevalence of oral lesions in this group of patients.

ABSTRACT

INTRODUCTION: Abdominal wall endometrioma is a clinical entity characterized by presence of a tumor located somewhere inside a surgical scar, most frequently after cesarean section, although it has been described after hysterectomy or laparotomy. It is associated with episodes of periodic pain confirmed by histopathologic examination. Our objective was to describe a characteristic triad of periodic pain, tumor, and history of cesarean section in a group of patients. MATERIAL AND METHODS: We conducted a case series of 25 patients between January 1994 and August 2002 who presented a triad consisting of periodic pain, associated with menses, history of cesarean section, and tumor inside a surgical scar confirmed as endometrium after histopathologic exam. RESULTS: Patients presenting the triad were subjected to surgical resection of the tumor including skin, adipose tissue, muscle, and peritoneum. Samples revealed endometrium after histopathologic examination. Patients presented 100% recovery after surgical treatment without relapse of symptoms during follow-up to date. CONCLUSIONS: Abdominal wall endometrioma can be identified by the triad described by Esquivel. Surgical treatment shows satisfactory results.

ABSTRACT

El absceso hepático piógeno, frecuentemente es secundario a infecciones intrabdominales. Sin embargo, en el paciente diabético, esta asociación no es un requisito. Los gérmenes formadores de gas afectan al diabético produciendo diversas entidades nosológicas como colecistitis enfisematos, apendicitis gangrenosa, abscesos perinefríticos, fascitis necrosante entre otros. Presentamos el caso de un paciente diabético de 47 años de edad al que se le diagnosticó un absceso hepático por gérmenes formadores de gas que se trató mediante punción percutánea y antibióticos. Se analizan los factores predisponentes a la aparición de esta asociación, así como la forma de manejo en la actualidad

ABSTRACT

Se informa el caso de un adenoma de la gándula suprarrenal productor de aldosterona. Pacientes femenina de 54 años de edad que acude a consulta médica por presentar hipertensión arterial, debilidad extrema, y parestesias. Sus estudios de laboratorio demostraron hipokalemia severa, hipernatremia, hiperaldosteronemia e hiporreninemia. La tomografía de abdomen demostró un nódulo en la glándula suprarrenal derecha el cual fue resecado con abordaje posterior. El reporte histopatológico fue de un adenoma suprarrenal producto de aldosterona compatible con síndrome de Conn. El hiperaldosteronismo primario es una enfermedad rara, causante de hipertensión aterial en el 0.5 por ciento de los pacientes hipertensos, habitualmente es secundario a un adenoma de la glándula suprarrenal. El manejo quirúrgico revierte los trastornos metabólicos en la mayoría de los casos
