ABSTRACT
The frequency of microorganisms identified in nosocomial infections at Unicamp University Hospital from 1987 to 1994 was analysed. The most common microorganism was S. aureus (20.9%), which was found in surgical wound, bloodstream and arterial-venous infections. In urinary tract infections (UTI), gram-negative rods (56.5%) and yeasts (9%) predominated. A. baumannii isolates were observed to have increased in the last three years. There was a gradual increase in the frequency of coagulase-negative staphylococci and A. baumannii in bloodstream infections but there wasn't any change in Candida sp.

Os autores, após analisar a importância das mãos na atividade diária, chamam a atenção para o problema da estética, nos pacientes de lepra, decorrente das amiotrofias do dorso da mão. Relatam a experiência do Serviço de Reabilitação do Departamento de Profilaxia da Lepra do Estado de São Paulo, na correção de tais deformidades com o emprêgo de enxertos dérmicos, enxertos dermo-gordurosos, fáscia lata e silicões.É exposta a técnica usada para estes últimos e feita a análise dos resultados obtidos em 7 casos. Concluem os AA. pela superioridade do emprêgo dos silicões sobre as outras técnicas, dados os bons resultados, ausência de reações colaterais, simplicidade de execução e baixo custo.
