Background: To establish the best methodology for diagnosis and management of patients with solid and complex renal masses by comparing the costs and benefits of different imaging methods and to improve differential diagnosis of these benign and malignant lesions, particularly by investigating tumour calcifications. Methods: We performed a prospective study on 31 patients with solid or complex masses by submitting them to Abdominal Ultrasonography (US), Doppler Ultrasonography of the renal mass (US Dop), Computed Tomography (CT), and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI). Results: We found 28 patients with malignant and three with benign masses. Of the 28 malignant, 17 showed calcifications at CT; 16 central and one was of the pure peripheral curvilinear type (egg shell). Excretory Urography (IVP) had a significantly lower detection rate for central calcifications than both US and CT. Benign and malignant masses appeared as described in literature, with US, CT and MRI showing high sensitivity and specificity in renal tumor diagnosis. The exception was US Dop where we obtained lower sensitivity for the characterization of malignant tumor flow. Conclusions: In this series we were surprised to find that CT revealed central calcifications in 51.6% of patients, all with malignant lesions, while, literature reports a frequency of calcification in renal cell carcinoma between 8 and 22%, in studies using abdominal films and EU (IVP). This finding is of great importance when we consider that these calcifications occur particularly in malignant neoplasms. As a result of comparing these different imaging methods we have developed a better methodology for renal tumor investigation.

Introduction: The odontogenic keratocyst tumor (OKT) derived from dental lamina rests with particularities and specific histological features, with high rates of relapse and aggressive clinical behavior. Presents certain predilection for males, affecting the mandible of 60% to 80% of cases may be related to impacted tooth 25 to 45% of cases. Objective: To highlight the clinical, histopathological and imaging procedures of the OKT, as well as discuss the treatment of this injury. Case Report: To report a case of 10 years of age to look for the orthodontist to correct anterior open bite was observed in panoramic radiography radiolucent area in the region of the body of the mandible associated with pathological inclusion of the lower premolar. It was performed an incisional biopsy of the lesion and the histopathologic diagnosis was odontogenic keratocyst tumor. It was performed a CT scan to assess the extent of the injury and its relation to anatomic structures. How to conduct, we opted for the extraction of the deciduous molar and enucleation of the lesion, preserving the premolar included. The same goes on clinical and radiographic control 18 months, after removal of OKT obtaining the eruption of premolar that was involved in the injury. Final Comments: It is necessary to adopt protocols that include dental care knowledge of oral diagnosis, medical history and careful clinical evaluation without forgetting the need for histopathological confirmation.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the biomechanical behavior of different implant connection types, by means of three-dimensional finite element analysis. 3 Three-dimensional models were created with a graphic modeling software: SolidWorks 2006 and Rhinoceros 4.0, and InVesalius (CTI, São Paulo, Brasil), the bone was obtained by computerized tomography of a sagittal section of the molar region. The model was composed by bone block with an implant (4 x 10 mm) (Conexão Sistemas de Prótese, São Paulo), with different implant connections: external hex, internal hex and Morse-taper with the corresponding prosthetic component Ucla or Morse-taper abutment. The Three-dimensional models were transferred to finite element software Femap 10.0 (Siemens PLM Software Inc., CA, USA), to generate a mesh, boundary conditions and loading. An axial (200N) and oblique load (100N) was applied on the occlusal surface of the crowns. Analyses were performed using the finite element software NEiNastran 9.0 (Noran Engineering, Inc., USA) and transferred to the Femap 10.0 to obtain the results; after the results were visualized using von Mises stress maps and Maximum stress principal. The results showed the stress distribution was similar between models, with a little superiority of Morse-taper connection. It was concluded that: the three connection types were biomechanical viable; The Morse-taper connection presented the better internal stress distribution; there was not significant biomechanical differences on the bone.

As ossificações do complexo estilo-hióideo (OCEH), os tonsilólitos e os ateromas são exemplos calcificações em tecidos moles incidentalmente encontrados em exames de imagem. Atualmente com a utilização da tomografia computadorizada de feixe cônico (TCFC) na odontologia, há um aumento do número desses achados. Objetivo: Relatar um caso clínico com calcificações em tecidos moles e comparar esses achados entre a radiografia panorâmica e a TCFC do mesmo paciente. Paciente masculino, 77 anos, compareceu a Clínica de Radiologia para realizar radiografia panorâmica e TCFC para planejamento de implantes. Na radiografia panorâmica pode-se observar a OCEH bilateral e presença de uma área radiopaca localizada no ramo ascendente da mandíbula, que foi compatível com esclerose óssea. Na análise da TCFC constatou a presença da OCEH bilateralmente. Porém a área radiopaca primeiramente sugestiva de esclerose óssea, na TCFC foi sugerida como tonsilólito, pois não estava localizada no ramo ascendente da mandíbula, e sim nos tecidos moles da região próxima aos espaços aéreos. No exame de TCFC foi possível a visualização de outra estrutura calcificada do lado direito do paciente, na altura da vértebra C4, heterogênea que foi compatível com ateroma. O diagnóstico das calcificações pode não ser preciso quando se utiliza apenas a radiografia panorâmica, além da possibilidade de apresentar falso negativo, como no caso do ateroma. Assim sendo quando o paciente possuir o exame de TCFC esse deve ser completamente avaliado, para que sejam diagnosticadas as possíveis calcificações em tecidos moles presentes.

There are only 10 reported cases of pancreatic hemangiomas in adults, only one of them causing digestive bleeding. We present a case of variceal bleeding and portal hypertension caused by a pancreatic hemangioma. The patient had 19 year-old and was received at her 16th week of pregnancy. She had massive hematemesis, controlled after variceal band ligation. Her image exams revealed a cystic lesion of 164 cm³ in the pancreas tail and signs of portal hypertension. Two months after, the ultrassonographic exam documented the lesion growth, achieving 200 cm³ at that time. The patient was submitted to distal pancreatectomy, and the histopathological analysis revealed a pancreatic hemangioma of 11 x 9 x 8 cm. Therefore, we report the second case of digestive bleeding caused by a pancreatic hemangioma, which had a well documented growth during the pregnancy. Additionally, we review the previous reports of pancreatic hemangiomas and discuss the hypothesis of hormonal infl uence on the natural history of these tumors.

Intracranial neoplasms are common causes of neurological disorders in middle-aged and elderly dogs. With the feasibility of computed tomography, it is now possible to determine the extent and exact location of brain tumors, identifying them ante mortem in dogs and cats. This paper aims to report the occurrence of a mixed glioma in a Boxer dog examined at the Veterinary Hospital of Unesp, Botucatu Campus. The animal presented with a brain syndrome of acute onset and progressive course. CT scan showed the presence of a mass in the right cerebral hemisphere extending from the frontal to the parietal region and involving the basal ganglia. Given the gravity of the neurological disorder, the owner chose to perform euthanasia. Microscopic analysis of the mass allowed the diagnosis of mixed glioma.

The electrocardiogram (ECG) is an important tool used in the diagnosis of cardiac arrhythmias, since it gives the graphic representation of depolarization and repolarization processes of the cardiac muscle. This study allows recording the electrical activity of myocardial cells and the underlying differences in electric potential: the magnitude of this difference is measured in millivolts (mV), and its duration is measured in seconds. The ECG is indicated when an irregular rhythm is detected during physical examination, such as bradycardias, tachycardias or arrhythmias that are not secondary to breathing, in animals with a history of syncope or weakness, for monitoring the effectiveness of antiarrhythmic therapy, in cases of putative pleural or pericardial effusion, and also in systemic diseases that lead to arrhythmia. For a reliable assessment, the ECG must be evaluated in conjunction with findings from the physical examination and clinical signs of each patient.
