Relato de caso de leucemia de células pilosas

A leucemia de células pilosas (LCP) é um tipo raro de linfoma não Hodgkin de células B. O quadro clínico inclui esplenomegalia, pancitopenia e linfocitose. Estudos de carcinogênese da doença revelam sua associação a agentes químicos agrícolas. O objetivo deste estudo foi o relato de um caso de paciente com LCP, masculino, tratorista, com pancitopenia, lesões de pele, sem esplenomegalia e com marcadores positivos para linfócitos B (CD19, CD20, CD22, CD79b, CD23, Lambda, imunoglobulina M [IgM], CD25 e CD103). Embora a LCP seja uma doença rara, a demora em seu diagnóstico pode levar a sérias complicações e à morte do paciente antes do diagnóstico.

Tempo para acesso ao tratamento do câncer de mama no Distrito Federal, Brasil Central

PURPOSE: To analyze the time between the first symptom and treatment in patients treated for breast cancer in public hospitals in the Federal District. METHODS: This was a cross-sectional analysis. We interviewed 250 women diagnosed with breast cancer treated in six hospitals of the State Department of Health of the Federal District from November 2009 to January 2011. The time intervals studied were the time between the detection of the symptoms and treatment subdivided into intervals until and after the first medical appointment. The variables were: age, menopausal status, color, educational level, average monthly household income, origin, reason for the initial consultation, staging, tumor size, laterality, metastasis to axillary lymph nodes, neoadjuvant chemotherapy, and type of surgery. The Mann-Whtney test was used to assess the association of these variables with the time intervals until treatment. RESULTS: The mean age was 52 years, with a predominance of white women (57.6%), from the Federal District (62.4%), with a family income of up to 2 minimum wages (78%), and up to four years of schooling (52.4%). The staging of the disease ranged from II to IV in 78.8% of the women. The time between the first symptom and treatment was 229 days (median). After detection of the first symptom, 52.9% of the women attended a consultation within 30 days and 88.8% took more than 90 days to start treatment. Women with elementary school education had a greater delay to the start of treatment (p=0.049). CONCLUSIONS: There was a significant delay to start treatment of women with breast cancer in public hospitals of the Federal District, suggesting that efforts should be made to reduce the time needed to schedule medical appointments and to diagnose and treat these patients.

Reparo periapical de dentes tratados endodonticamente submetidos a movimentação ortodôntica

The relationship of Orthodontics and Endodontics is being clarified with the development of evidence-based dentistry. However, few studies have reported the repair of periapical lesions with orthodontic treatment. Therefore, the aim of this study was to evaluate the available evidence on periapical repair of endodontically treated teeth during orthodontic movement. The strategy used was the electronic search with keywords and criteria including studies published up to July 2011. It was also carried out qualitative assessment of the articles methodology. Although a significant number of studies have reported this topic, only two filled the criteria for inclusion in this systematic review. The results obtained in the literature suggest that orthodontic treatment should be interrupted to perform endodontic treatment. During this therapy, the use of root canal dressing based on calcium hydroxide for at least 14 days, and sealer with adequate biological property are indicated. After this phase, orthodontic movement of the endodontically treated teeth can be resumed without waiting period.

Tratamento cirúrgico de canino incluso em mento: relato de caso

The mandibular and maxillary canines when well positioned in the arch, are important functionally and aesthetically. Although these teeth are frequently malpositioned in the dental arch, their absence of eruption are not common, occuring more frequently with the maxillary canine than the mandibular canine. The canine transmigration is a well-known pre eruptive phenomenon in which the tooth goes thru the facial midline, occurring more frequently in the mandible than in maxila. Females are more susceptible than males and the right side more than the left one. Normally the patients do not show any symptoms, and this condition is observed during radiographic exams to diagnose the late exfoliation of the deciduous canine or for any other purpose. Due to the relationship between impacted canines and pathologic lesions, infection, trauma to the adjacent teeth, pain, ectopic eruption and interference with prosthesis, it´s indicated the surgical extraction of these teeth. The goal of this article is to describe and discuss the surgical treatment of an impacted canine (43) in the chin.

Uma opção terapêutica para o aumento da faixa de gengiva inserida: o enxerto de tecido conjuntivo livre

Several periodontal procedures have been described in the literature to correct mucogingival alterations or to achieve root coverage. The epithelized free gingival graft is a well established periodontal surgery to increase the width of keratinized gingiva with good stability in the long term follow up. However, this procedure is not commonly used in aesthetic areas since the grafted tissue presents differences of color and contrast. The free connective tissue graft emerges as a viable option to increase attached gingiva in areas where aesthetics results are required. The removal of an epithelized free gingival graft from the hard palate region creates a sore and raw surgical wound that slowly repairs, while the connective tissue graft produces only a line of incision that can be easily sutured promoting a more confortable outcome for the patient. This paper aims to report a case where a free connective tissue graft was used to increase the width of attached gingiva in a tooth with gingival recession. This technique presented satisfactory esthetics results, with a better contrast and color matching with the surrounding tissues.

Replantation as treatment for extrusive luxation

In the treatment of extrusive luxation cases, it is important that the repositioning of extruded tooth in the socket is done as soon as possible. If this does not occur, periapical clot becomes organized and makes replantation difficult reposition. In this article the patient referred to the Clinics for dental trauma sustaining extrusive luxation of the maxillary right central incisor. The patient reported having suffered a bicycle accident 12 days before, which caused traumatic tooth injuries. The repositioning was attempted without success and an alternative form of treatment was necessary to solve the case. Intentional tooth replantation, which is the deliberate extraction of the tooth and its replantation, was indicated. This technique allows clot removal and correct repositioning of the extruded tooth. Care should be taken as endodontic treatment is required for the prevention of subsequent infection-related resorption. Intracanal dressing with calcium hydroxide was used for 30 days before final root filling. Splint, systemic antibiotics and avoidance of further damage to the root surface is also important. After 49 months, showed clinical and radiographic characteristics of normality and demonstrates the availability of this technique to adversity in trauma.

Atividade antimicrobiana de cimentos endodônticos

The antimicrobial activity is a fundamental property of root-canal sealers due to persistence of residual microorganisms in the root canal system, even after the chemo-mechanical preparation and using of intracanal dressing. The aim of this study is to review the literature about the antimicrobial properties of some of the main root-canal sealers. Although there is controversy regarding this property, probably due to differences in the methodologies used in the studies, it was concluded that the sealers with the best antimicrobial activity were (in ascending order): Endofill, Ketac Endo, Sealapex, AH Plus, Endo CPM Sealer, Sealer 26 and Epiphany. Activ GP still needs scientific research to evaluate this property.

Avaliação do curativo de hidróxido de cálcio para a prevenção da infiltração coronária por um período curto

Objetivo: o objetivo desse estudo in vivo foi avaliar a influência da infiltração coronária no reparo apical de dentes de cães que receberam curativo de demora com hidróxido de cálcio e foram mantidos, ou não, em contato com o meio bucal. Métodos: após o preparo biomecânico e preenchimento com pasta de hidróxido de cálcio, 26 canais foram divididos aleatoriamente em dois grupos experimentais (Grupo 1 = selamento coronário com material restaurador temporário; Grupo 2 = não selados). Os animais foram sacrificados após 7 dias e os espécimes foram preparados para análise histológica. Resultados: em ambos os grupos, os resultados foram semelhantes, células inflamatórias não estavam presentes no tecido apical ou no cemento. Além disso, observou-se necrose na superfície do terço coronário do coto pulpar em contato com o hidróxido de cálcio, e microrganismos foram observados apenas em contato com resíduos que estavam presentes na câmara pulpar dos espécimes sem selamento, mas não no canal radicular. Conclusão: concluiu-se que o hidróxido de cálcio utilizado como curativo impediu a contaminação do canal radicular e manteve seu mecanismo de ação nos tecidos apicais, mesmo sem selamento coronário, por um período de 7 dias.

Susceptibility of microorganisms isolated from necrotic pulps to calcium hydroxide

Calcium hydroxide has been used as pulp-capping agent and canal dressing due to its antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory properties besides its ability to induce formation of mineralized tissues. The aim of this study was to evaluate the susceptibility to calcium hydroxide of 146 bacterial strains isolated from endodontic infections. MIC was determined by using an agar dilution method, while contact bactericide activity was performed through in broth. All the isolates were sensitive to calcium hydroxide in concentrations that varied from 0.5mg/ml to 128 mg/ml, and the genera Enterococcus, Pseudomonas, Staphylococcus and Actinomyces were the most resistant. Gramnegative anaerobes proved to be the most sensitive isolates. All the isolates were inhibited after 60 minutes of contact with the alkali in concentration of 100mg/ml
