ABSTRACT

Almost all aneurysmal bone cysts of the hand were managed with either simple curettage plus or minus bone graft or en block excision and autograft reconstruction. The high recurrence rate is a major disadvantage of the former technique, whereas complexity/donor-site morbidities are known disadvantages of the latter technique. In the long bones of the lower limbs, adjuvant therapy after curettage is known to reduce the recurrence rate. This article introduces adjuvant bipolar electrical cauterization after curettage of aneurysmal bone cysts of the hands. This technique was used in 6 cases including 1 case with a recurrent lesion after curettage done elsewhere. Complications have been minimal and there was no recurrence at a mean follow-up of 3 years. Although the number of cases in this series is small, the favorable results warrant trying the technique in a multicenter comparative study.

ABSTRACT

Cistos periodontais laterais são entidades relativamente raras que acometem preferencialmente a mandíbula na região de pré-molares. Este cisto tem origem durante o desenvolvimento e se apresenta entre as raízes dos elementos dentais envolvidos, sem, contudo, provocar qualquer envolvimento pulpar. Clinicamente, este se apresenta assintomático e, em alguns casos, com discreto aumento de volume, normalmente descoberto nos exames radiográficos de rotina. Radiograficamente, observa-se uma lesão radiolúcida, semelhante a uma lesão periapical, o que pode gerar erros durante o diagnóstico inicial da lesão. Este relato de caso apresenta um cisto periodontal lateral em incisivo lateral superior em um adulto do sexo masculino de 32 anos. O diagnóstico histológico confirmou a presença do cisto odontogênico, o qual foi tratado com enucleação total. O paciente foi acompanhado por um ano, sendo observada radiograficamente a neoformação óssea e a ausência de recorrência do cisto.


Lateral Periodontal Cysts are relatively rare pathologic entities which preferably affect the mandibular pre-molars region. This cyst has an origin during development and is located between the roots of affected teeth, without cause any pulpar damage. Clinically, it shows asymptomatic development and could lead to a local increasing. Usually are discovered during routine radiographic exams, showing a radiolucid image, similar to a periapical lesion, what could lead to wrongs in the initial diagnosis. The present case report documented a Periodontal Lateral Cyst in upper lateral incisor in a 32-years man. The histological analysis confirms the diagnosis of odontogenic cyst which was totally enucleated. The present case had a 1-year follow-up, showing the new bone formation and absence of recidive.

ABSTRACT

Objetivo. Determinar algunas características sociodemográficas, económicas y clínicas, de una muestra de pacientes atendidas por aborto en el Hospital del Instituto Hondureño de Seguridad Social de San Pedro Sula. METODOS. Se encuestaron 46 pacientes con diagnósticos de aborto incompleto en quienes se practicó legrado intrauterino. RESULTADOS. La edad promedio fue de 27 años (rango 20-40 años). La mayoría procedía de San Pedro Sula(39.1 por ciento), Choloma(19.6 por ciento) y Villanueva (17.4 por ciento),e informó trabajar como operaria de maquila (63.0 por ciento), en posición de pie (58.7 por ciento) y con un salario mensual inferior o igual a L 5,000.00 (aprox. US$270). El 58.7 por ciento informó estar practicando algún método de planificación familiar. El espacio intergenético promedio fue de 5 años (DS = 3 años), el (67.4 por ciento) respondió que el embarazo era deseado y el 54.3 por ciento, informó haber iniciado control prenatal. CONCLUSIONES. El bajo nivel de escolaridad detectado, 54.3 por ciento con educación primaria incompleta o ninguna educación formal, podría ser la causa del uso incorrecto de los métodos de planificación. La educación y cultura general de la mujer son determinantes en la salud sexual y reproductiva de ella misma y de su familia. Por lo tanto, las intevenciones educativas en grupos con estas características requieren atención especial
