Human salivary gland tumors originated from intercalated ducts present a broad range of histologic and cytologic patterns, mainly due to the presence of myoepithelial cells. The aim of this study is to verify the differentiation grade of neoplastic cells and a possible relation between myoepithelial cell differentiation and the presence of luminal secretory contents. The expression of vimentin and cytokeratin (CK) intermediate filaments, actin myofilament and epithelial membrane antigen (EMA) was investigated by double labeling immunocytochemical technique, in thirty salivary gland neoplasms: 5 pleomorphic adenomas, 5 myoepitheliomas, 3 basal cell adenomas, 7 adenoid cystic carcinomas (ACC) and 10 polimorphous low grade adenocarcinomas (PLGA). Tumors with intercalated duct differentiation (pleomorphic adenomas, basal cell adenomas and ACC) express CKs 7, 8, 18 and 19 in the luminal cells and coexpress eventually CK14 with these CKs. Some luminal cells stained with anti-EMA antibody, mainly where a secretory content in the lumen was observed. Outer ductal cells and other myoepithelial-like cells express vimentin, sometimes coexpressing actin and/or CK14 with vimentin. Plasmacytoid cells in myoepitheliomas and pleomorphic adenomas express vimentin and rarely CKs 7, 8, 18 and 19, sometimes coexpressing these CKs with CK14 but they are negative for the remaining antigens. Tumors without intercalated duct differentiation (solid basal cell adenoma and PLGA) express vimentin and CKs 7, 8, 14 and 18, sometimes coexpressing CKs 8 and 18 with CK14. In conclusion, in tumors with intercalated duct differentiation, myoepithelial cells express vimentin and sometimes coexpress actin and/or CK14 with vimentin, never coexpressing other CKs with vimentin. CK14 and actin are independently expressed by myoepithelial cells, so their expression is probably induced by different stimulus. However, the secretory function of luminal cells, visualized by EMA staining, ....

A redução da dose de radiação ao paciente é aceita em Radiologia Odontológica, com a finalidade de diminuir os riscos associados ao exame radiográfico. Para atingir este objetivo, além do avanço tecnológico ocorrido nas últimas décadas, devemos considerar a importância do Critério de Seleção para o paciente e da prescrição radiográfica na indicação correta do tipo de radiografia necessária para cada um deles. O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar a prescrição radiográfica de pacientes atendidos pelo Serviço de Medicina Bucal da Faculdade de Odontologia de Araraquara - UNESP durante o período de 1989 a 1993. Selecionamos 396 prontuários que constituiu a totalidade dos que continham exames radiográficos. Para a análise da prescrição radiográfica, consideramos as informações obtidas da ficha clínica e da interpretação das radiografias, utilizando os Critérios de Seleção e a análise de decisão clínica. Os resultados demonstraram um alto índice de pacientes com prescrição incorreta (44,0%); tendo em 24,7% dos pacientes ocorrido mais de uma radiografia prescrita incorretamente. Com relação ao tipo de técnica com prescrição incorreta, em 31,6% dos pacientes foi realizada a radiografia panorâmica, vindo a seguir a oclusal (28,7%), outro (17,2%) e a associação da panorâmica e oclusal (12,6%). Pacientes portadores de doenças e alterações de tecido mole tiveram a mais alta freqüência de prescrições incorretas, seguidos pelos portadores de doenças das glândulas salivares (13,5%) (incluindo os tumores); outros (10,1%); distúrbios da A.T.M. (9,0%); inflamação e infecção dos maxilares (6,8%); tumores benignos (5,6%) e tumores malignos (5,6%). Em 62,9% dos pacientes, o exame radiográfico contribuiu para o diagnóstico e tratamento. A alta porcentagem de prescrição incorreta encontrada evidencia a necessidade de... (Resumo completo, clicar acesso eletrônico abaixo).

BackgroundMelanoma of the skin is characterised by a high metastatic potential, but reports of metastasis to the tongue are rare. We report a case of skin melanoma with metastasis to the lymph nodes, tongue and brain.ObjectivesThis report highlights the clinical and histological features of oral metastatic melanoma.Case reportA 72-year-old man was seen with a nodule on the tongue. The differential diagnosis included salivary gland tumour, lymphoma and metastatic melanoma. His medical history revealed treatment for melanoma in the periumbilical region and micrometastases in the inguinal lymph nodes. An incisional biopsy was obtained and histological analysis showed the presence of a solid, epithelioid malignant tumour of monotonous appearance infiltrating the skeletal musculature. Immunohistochemistry showed reactivity of neoplastic cells to anti-HMB45, anti-melan A and anti-S100 antibodies and negativity for anti-PAN cytokeratin, confirming the diagnosis of metastatic melanoma.ConclusionThe present findings highlight the importance of a complete medical evaluation of the patient by anamnesis to identify possible oral repercussions of primary diseases in other organs and/or systems.

Introduction: Pathological changes in the bucal cavity associated with Diabetes mellitus (DM) may include gingivitis, periodontal disease, salivary gland dysfunction and xerostomia (dry mouth), susceptibility to bucal infections, burning mouth syndrome, and altered taste. Objective: This study assessed the technical and scientific knowledge of dentists working in primary care in the National Health System (SUS) on the DM. Material and method: The study was conducted in the municipalities of Birigui-SP, Maringá-PR and TrêsLagoas-MS, with the participation of 76 dentists working in the SUS primary care system.These professionals agreed to answer to a questionnaire developed for this study and the results of the questions were submitted to a quantitative analysis. Result: Showed that 94.7% were in contact with diabetic patients; 97.4% know what is DM; about other types of DM, 77.6% said they know, the most mentioned (by 55.9%) was the gestational DM. The DM2 was indicated as the most prevalent by 59.2%; the normal range of fasting blood glucose level was quoted correctly by 2.6% of the participants; obesity was reported by 98.7% of participants as a risk factor for DM; 96.0% stated correctly what are the main signs and symptoms related to Diabetes; periodontal disease was reported by 92.1% as an bucal manifestation in diabetic patients. Conclusion: The dentist needs to develop specific knowledge about DM, being able to identify normal levels of blood glucose and ready to identify and meet the bearer of DM.
