Résumé : Le condylome acuminé anal (CAA), transmis par contact sexuel, résulte d'une infection par Human Papilloma Virus (HPV). Son traitement chirurgical est grevé d'un taux de récidive de 4-29%. Le but de cette étude était d'identifier une éventuelle corrélation entre type d'HPV présent dans les CAA excisés chirurgicalement et taux de récidive de la maladie, Cette étude rétrospective porte sur 140 patients opérés au Centre Hospitalier Universitaire Vaudois de CAA, entre 1990 et 2005. Le diagnostic lésionnel a été confirmé par un examen histomorphologique. Le(s) type(s) d'HPV présent(s) dans ces lésions a été déterminé par Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR). Les patients ont donné leur accord à cette analyse et complété un questionnaire. Une éventuelle corrélation entre récidive de CAA, type d'HPV et status HIV a été recherchée. HPV 6 et 11 sont les virus les plus fréquemment découverts (51% et 28%, respectivement) chez les 140 patients (123H/17F). Trente-cinq (25%) d'entre eux ont présenté une récidive. HPV 11 était present chez 19 (41%) sujets. Ceci est statistiquement significatif (P<0.05), en comparaison aux autres HPVs. Il n'y a par contre pas de différence significative entre la fréquence de récidive des 33 (24%) patients HIV-positifs et le reste du collectif. HPV 11 est donc associé à un taux de récidive de CAA significativement élevé. Un suivi strict des patients atteints est nécessaire pour identifier une récidive et la traiter sans délai, notamment lorsque HPV 11 est present. Ces résultats innovateurs soulèvent la question de la nécessité de pratiquer une typisation virale systématique sur les lésions excisées. La justification d'une telle attitude demande toutefois encore d'être confirmée.

With advances in heart transplantation, a growing number of recipients are at risk of developing gastrointestinal disease. We reviewed our experience with gastrointestinal disease in 92 patients undergoing 93 heart transplants. All had follow-up, with the median time 4.8 years (range 0.5-9.6 years). During the period of the study we progressively adopted a policy of low immunosuppression aiming toward monotherapy with cyclosporine. Nineteen patients (20.6%) developed 28 diseases related to the gastrointestinal tract. Thirteen patients required 18 surgical interventions, five as emergencies: closure of a duodenal ulcer, five cholecystectomies (one with biliary tract drainage), a sigmoid resection for a diverticulitis with a colovesical fistula, a colostomy followed by a colostomy takedown for an iatrogenic colon perforation, appendectomy, two anorectal procedures, and six abdominal wall herniorrhaphies. At the onset of gastrointestinal disease, 8 patients were on standard triple-drug immunosuppression, all of them within 6 months of transplantation; 13 were on double-drug immunosuppression; and 7 were on cyclosporine alone. All the patients with perforations/fistulas were on steroids. Among the 11 infectious or potentially infectious diseases, 10 were on triple- or double-drug immunosuppression. One death, a patient who was on triple-drug immunosuppression, had a postmortem diagnosis of necrotic and hemorrhagic pancreatitis. Except for an incisional hernia following a laparoscopic cholecystectomy, there was no morbidity and, importantly, no septic complications. We concluded that a low immunosuppression policy is likely to be responsible for the low morbidity and mortality of posttransplant gastrointestinal disease, with a lower incidence of viscous perforation/fistula and infectious gastrointestinal disease.

Objectives: A study was made to determine the temperature increment at the dental root surface following Er,Cr:YSGG laser irradiation of the root canal. Design. Human canines and incisors previously instrumented to K file number ISO 30 were used. Irradiation was carried out with glass fiber endodontic tips measuring 200 μm in diameter and especially designed for insertion in the root canal. The teeth were irradiated at 1 and 2 W for 30 seconds, without water spraying or air, and applying a continuous circular movement (approximately 2 mm/sec.) in the apico-coronal direction. Results: At the 1 W power setting, the mean temperature increment was 3.84ºC versus 5.01ºC at 2 W. In all cases the difference in mean value obtained after irradiation versus the mean baseline temperature proved statistically significant (p< 0.05). Conclusions: Application of the Er,Cr:YSGG laser gives rise to a statistically significant temperature increment at the external root surface, though this increment is probably clinically irrelevant, since it would appear to damage the tissues (periodontal ligament and alveolar bone) in proximity to the treated tooth
