São apresentados três raros casos de osteoma do etmóide, com extensão para o quadrante medial da órbita e que apresentavam algumas particularidades que os tornavam ainda mais inusitados, como terem acontecido em mulheres, em faixa etária não usual e com queixa de epífora. Os achados radiográficos foram típicos da afecção e os casos foram operados, com resolução do problema.

BACKGROUND: Ultrasonography (US), Computed Tomography (CT), and Magnetic Resonance imaging (MR) were compared for the staging of renal tumors. The differences between these imaging techniques were also studied for their ability to detect adenopathies, vascular invasion, distant intra-abdominal metastases, and particularly adjacent organ invasion. METHODS: Thirty-one patients with solid or complex renal masses were prospectively studied using US, CT, and MR. Differences between the results obtained were studied using the COCHRAN G test and the McNEMAR test. The sensitivity and specificity of each diagnostic technique were compared against a gold standard of the surgical and histopathological findings. RESULTS: The following sensitivities were obtained: For the detection of adenopathy, US 63.6%, CT and MR 90.9%. For vascular invasion, US 42.8%, CT and MR 85.7%. For the adjacent organ invasion, US 28.5%, CT 85.7%, and MR 71.4%. Some of the criteria that suggest invasion of adjacent structures include: the envelopment of the adjacent structures by the tumor, tumor extension into the adjacent structures with an irregular appearance, and alterations in shape, size, and density of adjacent structures. Loss of fat planes between the tumor and adjacent structures is not a sign of tumor invasion. CONCLUSIONS: Significant differences were found in the detection capacity of US in relation to CT and MR, which were similar. All three techniques were highly sensitive and specific only in the detection of distant abdominal metastases. In addition to the accuracy of these diagnostic modalities for the detection and staging of tumors, invasiveness, risks and cost should be considered in relation to relative costs and benefits.

The purpose of this paper is to report a recidivate basal cell carcinoma of the eyelid with orbital invasion located in the inner canthus of the left eye. A 79 year old, male, Caucasian patient had a basal cell carcinoma removed from the left inner eyelid canthus 8 years ago and the edges of the resection were compromised by the lesion. The patient had recurrence of the lesion and orbital invasion. He was submitted to orbital exenteration and the ethmoid bone was removed too. The authors call attention to the necessity of correct diagnosis and followup to have success in the management of the patient.

Brucellosis remains an economic problem in animals and public health. Worldwide ovine brucellosis caused by Brucella ovis is considered a major cause of infertility in sheep. The factors responsible for persistence of the agent are not known, as well as the mechanisms involved in immune defense and possibly the persistence of the agent. Brucella spp. induces moderate inflammatory response. The nature of the intracellular agent stimulates immune response of the type 1 helper T lymphocytes. Studies of the pathogenesis of ovine brucellosis are scarce. Recent developments have shown that the inflammatory response induced by moderate brucelas represent probably the result of an attempt to escape the immune response and suppression of host immune response. Were reviewed by the mechanisms described by brucelas and Brucella ovis for penetration into the host, escape of the immune response and the immune response generated by the infection.

The mobility of water in the soil is a difficult process to be quantified. During precipitation, there is a portion of the water that infiltrates, which is very important for recovering the groundwater balance. This work studies the mobility of water in sandy soils with different textures and residual soils through experiments mounted in lysimeters. The lysimeters were mounted on acrylic cylinder with 11.3 cm diameter and 25.0 cm in length. The sand was deposited using the process sand rain. In the tests it was maintained a hydraulic head of two centimeters above the surface with the aid of a Mariotte flask. The portions of water were controlled in the experiments using relations between weight and volume measurements over time. The data were obtained by monitoring the input and output volumes of water through calibrated reservoir and system weight by an electronic balance. The infiltration front was monitored with the aid of a digital camera. The results indicate that the smaller the particle size of the sand, the lower the speed of the saturation front, the higher the retained volume, the smaller the basic rate of infiltration and the lowest speed of percolation. Moreover, the rate of water loss in the evaporation process indicated no significant difference with variation of the particle size of the samples

A Doença Inflamatória Intestinal (DII) engloba um grupo de processos inflamatórios crônicos de causas não conhecidas. Duas formas clínicas da DII são reconhecidas atualmente: a Retocolite Ulcerativa (RU) e a Doença de Crohn (DC). Foram isoladas de 348 amostras, dos quais 17 foram diagnosticados com com DC, e 40 com RU. Os 41 restantes apresentavam outras patologias e compreenderam o grupo controle. Entre as amostras que apresentaram adesão positiva, 110 delas apresentaram padrão de Adesão Agregativa (AA) e 19 apresentaram padrão de Adesão Difusa (AD). A cepa, DII/013, apresentou o padrão de adesão agregativo e invisibilidade média 18 vezes superior à cepa da EIEC. Quando observada ao microscópio eletrônico, bactérias intracelulares foram detectadas na amostra. Assim, a maioria das amostras apresentaram padrão de adesão agregativo, indicando juntamente com estudos anteriores, que esse padrão teria uma possível relação com a patogenicidade da bactéria em relação a DII
