Considerando o comportamento social, é sugestivo que a freqüência e a intensidade de interações agressivas, o total de coesão social e compreensão da extensão de vícios sociais possam ser utilizados para avaliação de bem-estar. Este trabalho propõe que a freqüência de utilização de determinados locais dentro do galpão possa ser usada como variável para monitorar estados de bem-estar térmico e/ou estresse das aves alojadas. A partir de dados registrados no verão de 2000-2001, esta pesquisa identificou as temperaturas críticas máximas (tc máx) de matrizes pesadas, individualmente, por meio de análise estatística da freqüência de uso de locais previamente estabelecidos, utilizando a tecnologia de identificação eletrônica. Os valores das tc máx individuais variaram de 30 °C ± 0,2 ºC a 32,3 ºC ± 0,2 ºC e a temperatura crítica máxima média para o grupo foi 30,9 ºC ± 0,8 ºC.

Thirty-four years old patient, female, husband died of AIDS (Acquired Immunodeficiency Síndrome). She's confined to Hospital Universitário João de Barros Barreto, with a positive tesT for AIDS, fever, 10 kg/month of weight loss, diarrhea with gummy faeces, productive cough, yellowish sputum. The therapy was initiated, symptomatic, associated to Epivir, Saquinavir and AZT. The searching exams for Alcohol Ácid Resistant Bacili and fungi in the sputum were negative. At the hemogram was shown a pancytopenia, the esophagogastroduodenunscopy showed light esophago moniliasis. During commitment presented a perforating acute abdomen chart, the abdominal radiography showed hidroair levels, pneumoperitoneum, enlarced bowels with swollen wall. She was undertaken a surgery with diagnosis hypothesis of cytomegalovirus perforation, which accordin to literature is the most frequent cause of intestinal perforation in patients with AIDS.

Cerca de 4% a 15% dos tumores colorretais são hereditários e divididos em dois grupos: polipose adenomatosa familiar (FAP) e câncer colorretal hereditário sem polipose (HNPCC). Ambas são doenças autossômicas dominantes, com transmissão vertical, geração após geração, sem preferência por sexo. A FAP tem penetrância praticamente completa, caracterizada por mais de cem pólipos adenomatosos no intestino grosso, que aparecem em geral após a puberdade e se transformam em câncer em todos os casos não tratados, levando o paciente ao óbito em tomo dos 45 anos de idade. Manifestações extracolônicas são comuns, tais como: pólipos em estômago e duodeno, sarcomas abdominais, pigmentação de retina, osteomas, entre outras. A FAP é causada por mutação no gene APC, que está localizado no cromossomo 5q. Seu tratamento é basicamente cirúrgico, com retirada do intestino grosso, podendo-se preservar o reto, se este não apresentar muitos pólipos. O HNPCC tem penetrância em torno de 80% e não apresenta os pólipos benignos como na FAP, que permitem identificar pacientes com o fenótipo da doença. Geralmente, o diagnóstico da lesão colônica é realizado já na fase maligna, em torno dos 45 anos de idade, com preferência para o lado direito do cólon. Pode haver associação com tumores de endométrio na mulher, estômago, pâncreas, entre outros. É causada por mutação em genes de reparo do DNA (hMSH2, hMLH1, hPMS1, hPMS2, hMSH6/GTBP). A colectomia total deve ser realizada em pacientes com câncer de cólon e HNPCC. Se o tumor estiver localizado no reto, a proctocolectomia total pode ser uma opção. Em indivíduos portadores do defeito genético predisponente ao HNPCC, porém, assintomáticos, a indicação de cirurgias profiláticas é controversa. Atualmente, podem-se identificar indivíduos portadores de defeito genético herdado tanto na FAP como no HNPCC. Esses testes baseiam-se no estudo direto dos genes responsáveis pela respectiva doença ou pela proteína produto dos mesmos. É de suma importância uma abordagem multidisciplinar de pacientes portadores de FAP ou HNPCC, pois existe uma preocupação ética muito grande na realização dos testes genéticos de predisposição, considerando suas conseqüências psicológicas e sociais.

Cardiac transplant has been performed with an increased frequency as the treatment for end-stage cardiac disease. Although cholelithiasis is more frequent in both pretransplant and posttransplant patients, no standard management approach exists. Pretransplant patients are well recognized for cardiac events, and posttransplant immunossupressed patients are at a considerable risk for septic complications. Because the first presentation of gallstones in this population is often acute cholecystitis, asymptomatic calculi cannot be considered benign and it seems reasonable to recommend pretransplant screening and posttransplant surveillance for gallstones. Prophylatic laparoscopic cholecistectomy should be undertaken in the stable patient to avoid the substantial mortality associated with postoperative acute cholecystitis and urgent cholecystectomy. In this case report we present a 44 year-old male with acute cholecystitis after cardiac transplantation who was submitted to a safe laparoscopic cholecystectomy one year and seven months later.

Incidental adrenal tumors are lesions occasionally observed during abdominal US or CT scans. These tumors have been observed in patients without clinical or laboratorial signs of adrenal disease. The authors report a case of a 18 - years - old young man who was admitted to the Franco da Rocha Hospital, São Paulo, with abdominal pain and a palpated mass in the epigastrium which began one month ago. These findings were preceeded by a blunt trauma at the epigastrium three months earlier. First clinical hypothesis was of a traumatic pancreatic pseudocyst. However, investigation and laparotomy showed a large left adrenal solid mass, weighting 700 g. The mass was removed and histology was performed. There was no evidence of malignant neoplasm, then the diagnostic of incidental adenoma of adrenal was confirmed. The authors hope to stimulate surgeons for early detection of these lesions in order to prevent the complications and improve the prognosis.

We intend to discuss the main controversies involved in the diagnosis of gastroesophageal reflux and the necessity of a special method to feed severe neurologically impaired children, considering the implications of those circumstances in Brazilian families. Modern literature was reviewed, relating to diagnostic methodologies and their limitations, surgical methods, complications and resolution of the symptoms. There are controversies not yet solved about alimentary problems in the neurologically impaired children, specially concerning the presence of gastroesophageal reflux and respiratory disease. Familiar and social consequences of both primary neurological and secondary respiratory and nutricional disease are essential to consider. The incidence of gastroesophageal disease is extremely high in neurologically impaired children, with a high morbimortality and frequent respiratory manifestations. Surgical treatment offers high risks in case of associated complex congenital cardiac malformations. Alimentary gastrostomy and fundoplication offer good results concerning the incidence of respiratory problems and less hospitalizations for those patients.

Our objective is to report a case of laparoscopic cholecystectomy in a patient with duplicated cystic duct. A 34 year old male presented with episodic pain in the upper rigth quadrant of the abdomen. Murphy' s sign was not present. Ultrassonography showed gallbladder with multiple calculi and a thickened wall. At laparoscopic cholecystectomy, a duplicated cystic duct was found. Careful dissection and intraoperative cholangiography were performed to rule out common bile duct injury.

Jehova's witeness patients deny to receive heterologous blood transfusion even under life risk. They also neither agree with auto transfusion when the their own blood is stored days or weeks before surgery procedures. Percutaneous renal surgery can have complications and, among them, intense hemorrhage that can demand for open surgery. The authors report a case of a 32 year old patient with complete coralliform lithiasis in the right kidney who was submitted to percutaneous renal surgery with removing 400 ml of total blood accompanied subsequently of hemodilution and blood reinfusion by the end of the procedure. A Compact Advanced from Dideco, an italian company, was used for blood recovering during surgery and reinfusing it after the filtration process, centrifugation and washing of red globules. In this particular, the authors describe a technical adaption for blood collection. Both procedures are accepted by Jehova's witness patients, once that the blood is not stored and there is contact with your veined system. This article aim to show a blood capture technical variant in the percutaneous renal surgery, as well as to present a method in similar procedures, once that is not used routinely in urological surgeries.

The gastric bypass is a good option in the therapy of morbid obesity. Nevertheless, it must be considered the rare condition as occurred in a patient with previous abdominal surgery with Situs Inversus Totalis. A 24 year-old male patient with body mass index of 40 Kg/ m², multiple dietary failures, and arterial hypertension as co-morbidities, with a anterior paramedial right incision due to a previous appendicectomy (8 years ago).With a indication for bariatric surgery, was performed Roux-en-Y gastric bypass by laparoscopic procedure, with previous planning of Situs Inversus Totalis.

É apresentado um caso de prolapso do útero de 2º grau em paciente de 18 anos, virgem. Durante o ato cirúrgico corretivo (cirurgia de Gillian) foram recolhidas amostras dos ligamentos e fáscias para avaliação do sistema de fibras elásticas. Foram demonstradas alterações estruturais nas fibras elásticas semelhantes às que ocorrem no envelhecimento, o que promove o enfraquecimento do tecido conjuntivo induzindo ao defeito de suporte do assoalho pélvico.

A anemia aplástica é distúrbio caracterizado por pancitopenia e medula óssea hipocelular, com substituição gordurosa dos elementos e sem nenhum sinal de transformação maligna ou doença mieloproliferativa. Acomete geralmente adultos jovens e idosos, sem preferência sexual. A maioria dos casos é adquirida, mas pode ocorrer hereditariamente, por distúrbio molecular (anemia de Fanconi). A associação com gravidez é rara, estando relacionada com alta morbidade e mortalidade materna e fetal. Os autores descrevem o caso de uma paciente com anemia aplástica, diagnosticada previamente, cuja gestação complicou com infecção do trato urinário, doença hipertensiva específica da gestação e restrição de crescimento fetal, com parto prematuro eletivo. Apesar das condições adversas na gravidez e parto, mãe e recém-nascido tiveram evolução clínica satisfatória.
