Obstrução nasolacrimal congênita - Diagnóstico e tratamento

Patients with congenital nasolacrimal obstruction (CNLO) were evaluated at the Lacrimal Apparatus Service of Botucatu Faculty of Medicine - UNESP from 1990 to 1993. 45 children were seen at this period with CNLO. The diagnosis was confirmed by dacryocystography (DCG). Obstruction was unilateral in 77,7% of the patients; 68,1% at Arlt Sinus and 43,6% had lacrimal sac grade 1. Probing was made in children older than 6 months, under general anaesthesia, after DCG was performed. Cure was greater in children age 6 to 12 months with obstruction at Hasner's Valve and without dilation of lacrimal sac.

This article assembled the congenital lacrimal obstruction according embryology, clinical presentation, propedeutic exams and other differential anomalies.

Anomalia congênita em vasos da base do coração de um potro

Congenital anomalies of heart and large vessels are among more common found in animals, however rare in horses. This survey describes a cardiac anomaly that presents confluence between aorta wall and lung trunk, ramification of caudal cava vein in left atrium with presence of valve and consequently erroneous position of heart in thoracic cavity of one foal found dead after birth. The diagnostic was carried out for macroscopic finds association during the necropsy and histopathologic exams carried out at School of Veterinary Medicine - Unesp Araçatuba.

Anoftalmia congênita clínica - alterações oculares e sistêmicas associadas

Purpose: To describe alterations observed in patients with congenital clinical anophthalmia and the occurrence of association with other ocular and extra ocular abnormalities. Methods: An observational retrospective study was conducted evaluating 12 patients with congenital clinical anophthalmia at Faculdade de Medicina de Botucatu-UNESP, between 1992 and 2005. In those patients it was observed the ocular abnormalities, severity, laterality, follow-up and to systemic abnormalities associated. The congenital clinical anophthalmia have been associated to major severity abnormalities extra-oculars, mainly when the anophthalmia was bilateral, such agenesis of corpus callosum, others craniofacial anomalies and cardiac defects. In the cases unilateral, the alteration associated more frequently was the facial asymmetry, showing the direct correlation between anophthalmos and development of orbit and face. Conclusion: There was relation between congenital clinical anophthalmia and ocular abnormally and extra-ocular abnormally. Patients with bilateral anophthalmos disease have more severe alterations. anophthalmia congenital attends a course with abnormalities of development of the face.

Cortical representation of the horizon in V1 and peripheral scaling in mammals with lateral eyes

In the present investigation we mapped the primary visual area of the South American diurnal rodent, Dasyprocta aguti, by standardized electrophysiological mapping techniques. In particular, we performed a series of mapping experiments of the visual streak in the primary visual cortex. We found that the representation of the visual streak in V1 is greatly expanded, the nasal 10 degrees of the visual streak representation occupies ten times more cortical area than equivalent areas in the central or temporal representation. Comparison of these data with those on the density of ganglion cells in the retina at corresponding locations in the visual field reveal a significant mismatch between these two variables. The nasal representation is greatly expanded along the horizontal meridian in V1 as compared to the central and temporal regions whereas the density of ganglion cells decreases with progression along the visual streak from central region towards the nasal or temporal visual field. A review of the available data reveals that all lateral-eyed mammals exhibit a similar mismatch between the retinal and cortical representation of the visual field, and this mismatches is greater in those species with well defined visual streaks such as rabbit and agouti.

Investigação do potencial cortical provocado visual para padrão reverso em pacientes diagnosticados com epilepsia parcial e generalizada

Este trabalho avaliou o potencial cortical provocado visual de crianças com história de epilepsia com o objetivo de identificar marcadores eletrofisiológicos que indicassem alterações corticais em epilepsia. Foram estudados 34 sujeitos com história de epilepsia (18 sujeitos com epilepsia parcial e 16 com epilepsia generalizada). O grupo controle foi composto por 19 sujeitos sem história de crises epilépticas com faixa etária semelhante aos pacientes. Os componentes do potencial cortical provocado visual transiente para apresentação por padrão reverso de tabuleiros de xadrez foram avaliados quanto à amplitude, tempo implícito e razões de amplitude entre os componentes. Foi observado que os pacientes com epilepsia generalizada apresentaram componente N75 com amplitude maior que os demais grupos, enquanto as razões de amplitude N75/P100 e P100/N135foram menores em pacientes com epilepsia parcial que em outros grupos. Houve fraca correlação linear entre os parâmetros do potencial cortical provocado visual e a idade de início das crises epilépticas ou tempo de utilização das medicações antiepilépticas. Conclui-se que o componente N75 e as razões de amplitude N75/P100 e P100/N135 podem ser bons indicadores eletrofisiológicos para alterações funcionais corticais em epilepsia.
