Avaliação longitudinal de duas técnicas de sinus lift

The implant has high success rates and predictability in this decade. However, bone availability is a factor that may limit the installation technique of dental implants in subsequent rehabilitation of the maxillary arch has been proposed technique’s maxillary sinus lifting when it presents itself pneumatized, for installation of dental implants The aim of this paper is to present two clinical cases using the surgical technique and rehabilitation to the patient with surgery maxillary sinus lifting with the use of a biomaterial alone or in combination with autogenous bone and the prosthetic resolution radiographic and clinical follow-up of three years.

Ectopic third molar as a cause of sinusitis

Ectopic third molar teeth are those that are impacted in unusual positions, or that have been displaced and are at a distance from their normal anatomic location. Ectopic eruption of a tooth within the oral cavity is common, but rare in other sites. Ectopic eruption can be associated with developmental disturbances, pathologic processes or iatrogenic activity. Male, 19- years old, with an upper left ectopic third molar located in the maxillary sinus-infraorbital region. The patient reported a bad taste and recurrent sinusitis that had been resistant to treatment. Surgical excision was carried out of the third molar tooth using the Caldwell-Luc approach.

Morte, família e a compreensão fenomenológica: revisão sistemática de literatura

The phenomenological research aims to understand how human beings mean their experiences and allows a detailed investigation of issues related to human life. In order to understand how the death experience within the family has been addressed by studies within phenomenological research perspective, a systematic review of literature was performed based on abstracts indexed in Lilacs, PEPsic, Medline e PsycInfo, by means of the intersection of the keywords: family, death, and phenomenology. Overall, 54 papers were found. Initially, all the papers were subjected to a quantitative analysis, after which 15 were selected for qualitative analysis. The results indicated that studies with grounding in phenomenology addressed three major themes: the experiences, meanings and coping with grief and loss, the family’s relationship with the terminally ill patient, and the experiences of families facing sudden death.

Bone defect repair on the alveolar wall of the maxillary sinus using collagen membranes and temporal fascia: an experimental study in monkeys

Few studies has been done using guided bone regeneration in maxillary sinus defects. AIM: To assess the bone repair process in surgical defects on the alveolar wall of the monkey maxillary sinus, which communicates with the sinus cavity, by using collagen membranes: Gen-derm - Genius Baumer, Pro-tape - Proline and autologous temporal fascia. MATERIALS AND METHODS: In this prospective and experimental study, orosinusal communications were performed in four tufted capuchin monkeys (Cebus apella) and histologic analysis was carried out 180 days after. RESULTS: In the defects without a cover (control), bone proliferation predominated in two animals and fibrous connective tissue predominated in the other two. In defects repaired with a temporal fascia flap, fibrous connective tissue predominated in three animals and bone proliferation predominated in one. In the defects repaired with Gen-derm or Pro-tape collagen membranes there was complete bone proliferation in three animals and fibrous connective tissue in one. CONCLUSIONS: Surgical defect can be repaired with both bone tissue and fibrous connective tissue in all study groups; collagen membranes was more beneficial in the bone repair process than temporal fascia or absence of a barrier.

A função autor e a crônica esportiva no Brasil: representações da Copa do Mundo em alguns jornais paulistas e cariocas

From the 1990s, Brazilian newspapers began to refer to the convening of different personalities to comment on the World Cup soccer in their sports pages. This article seeks to examine this phenomenon under the notion that the French philosopher Michel Foucault called the “author function” - one that establishes the existence, circulation and functioning of certain discourses within a specific audience.

Endovascular repair of a juxtarenal saccular aneurysm using the Multilayer Flow Modulator: report of the first case performed in a Public Hospital in Brazil

Endovascular aortic aneurysm repair (EVAR) involving renal and visceral arteries remains a great challenge. Several techniques have been developed over the time to treat juxtarenal, pararenal and thoracoabdominal aneurysms, highlighting the fenestrated and branched endografts, parallel prostheses as Chimney, Periscope and Sandwich Techniques and the use of flow modulation by multilayer stent. We report a case of saccular juxtarenal aortic aneurysm with high surgical risk for complex airway access due to a history of radical laryngectomy for laryngeal neoplasm. Due to chronic aorto-iliac obstructive disease, ostial stenosis of renal artery and limited diameter of the suprarenal aorta, we discarded options involving fenestrated/branched endografts and involving parallel prostheses techniques. We present this case as a therapeutic challenge and a successful treatment option in the short-term evaluation.

Unfavorable iliac artery anatomy causing access limitations during endovascular abdominal aortic aneurysm repair: application of the endoconduit technique

Endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) is already considered the first choice treatment for abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA). Several different strategies have been used to address limitations to arterial access caused by unfavorable iliac artery anatomy. The aim of this report is to illustrate the advantages and limitations of each option and present the results of using the internal endoconduit technique and the difficulties involved.
