Ficomicose (mucormicose) orbito-rino-cerebral: registro de um caso

The case of a 15 years old white man, diabetic in cetoacidosis, with a orbit-rhino-cerebral phycomycosis is reported. The illness had an acute onset and the treatment was iniciated early with Amphotericin-B and unilateral osteotomy of maxillary and ethmoidal sinus. With this treatment the patient did well with residuals of ophtalmoplegia and amaurosis on the right. Interesting investigation aspects are the occluded internal carotid on the same side of the affected orbit and the CAT-SCAN finding of moderated ventricular dilatation (two month after hospital admission). Mycology, pathophysiology, histopathology, clinical aspects, diagnosis and therapy are discussed, comparing the findings of this case with available literature. An increased number of survivors can be expected with earlier recognition and more aggressive therapy. Treatment of the underlying debilitating disease, Amphotericin-B and surgical debridement of necrotic tissue, are frequently necessary such as observed in the case reported. The favorable results ootaineü with the proposed managment are stressed.

Herpes Zoster oftálmico e posterior acidente vascular cerebral: relato de caso

A sixty-nine year old man suffered a stroke fourteen weeks after the onset of right herpes zoster ophthalmicus (HZO). Hemispheric infarction was documented by a computed tomography which showed a small hypodense zone in the right internal capsula; after contrast there was enhancement of this hypodense area. Cerebral angiography and cerebral-spinal fluid were not done. Despite of a diagnosis of probability the authors report the case and review the literature. A long latency between the HZO and onset of neurological deficit is stressed. New antiviral agents may prevent the ictus.

Polirradiculoneurite e malária: relato de um caso

Case report of a patient who three weeks after a Plasmodium falciparum malaria presented the Guillain-Barré syndrome. There was a severe type of polyradiculoneuritis with tetraplegia and involvement of several cranial nerves (VI, VII, IX, X) evolving to death. The Guillain-Barré syndrome has been considered a immune disorder with several eliciting antigenic stimuli. The case suggests that protozoan may be one these antigenic factors.

Função vísuo-espacial em paralisia cerebral e proposta de novo teste com a ajuda de computador

The first idea of this study is trat there may be a disturbance of the visuo-spatial function in cerebral palsy. This idea is based upon the theories of Luria and Piaget. The second idea of this study is that the computer can help the investigation of visuo-spatial function. With the intention of evaluating the spatial function in cerebral palsy, the literature related to these themes was revised. We justify the proposal of a new test to study visuo-spatial function. This test uses straight lines in four different orientations and the subject has to recognize and arrange them individually or sets of them. This was done through the use of pencil and papel, and computer. The results confirm that there is a spatial disturbance and that a better understanding of the subject's difficulties was made possible through the use of the computer and the Logo computer language.
