Renal nephroblastoma is a malignant tumor composed by embryonic tissue that affects mainly puppies. This works reports the occurrence of unilateral renal nephroblastoma in a puppy with four months. The diagnosis was obtained by histopathological examination of mass obtained by exploratory laparotomy, with realization of nephrectomy. The animal died at 15 days post-operatively by the presence of pulmonary metastases. The survival rate with surgical excision of the mass, with or without complementary therapies, can vary with the stage of disease.

Contexto: A paracoccidioidomicose é uma doença de apresentação clínica polimórfica, sendo a micose sistêmica de maior prevalência no Brasil. Relato de caso: Descrevemos o caso de um paciente de 49 anos que apresentava úlcera de crescimento progressivo há um ano no primeiro dedo da mão direita. Durante a investigação, foi realizado diagnóstico de paracoccidioidomicose forma crônica com acometimento cutâneo e pulmonar, apesar da ausência de clínica respiratória. Conclusões: Por apresentar evolução insidiosa na forma crônica, o diagnóstico da paracoccidioidomicose pode passar despercebido devido à grande dissociação clinicorradiológica nas formas pulmonares. Portanto, a presença de lesões cutâneas indica a possibilidade de acometimento sistêmico.

Introdução: Hanseníase e Tuberculose são enfermidades associadas à supressão da imunidade celular do tipo TH1. As manifestações clínicas da hanseníase são usualmente cutâneas e da tuberculose (Tbc) tegumento-pulmonares. O objetivo é demonstrar a presença de ambas as enfermidades no mesmo paciente. Relato do caso: Paciente masculino, 59 anos, em uso de prednisona 40mg/d há 6 meses devido a um quadro “alérgico”, com queixa de úlcera peri-anal dolorosa e sangrante. Ao exame apresentava úlcera fagedênica peri-anal e inguinal fistulizado e pápulas normocrômicas no antebraço. Histopatológico de lesão nodular e da úlcera mostra infiltrado granulomatoso com BAAR +,interpretado como hanseníase multibacilar. O tratamento não resultou em melhora das lesões inguinais e perianal. Novos exames demonstraram serem as lesões ulceradas causadas pelo Mycobacterium tuberculosis, por cultura, e as lesões pápulo-nodulares serem Mycobacterium leprae, por PCR. Tratamento para ambas foi eficaz. O M.leprae e M.tuberculosis são patógenos intracelulares obrigatórios e a defesa do hospedeiro está diretamente associada à imunidade celular. Mesmo em países endêmicos para ambas as enfermidades a associação das duas doenças é de ocorrência excepcional. O uso da corticoterapia utilizada para quadro alérgico (ENH) facilitou a ocorrência da Tbc. O caso relata a importância dos métodos auxiliares diagnósticos em caso de difícil interpretação clínica.

Several experimental studies of pulmonary emphysema using animal models have been described in the literature. However, only a few of these studies have focused on the assessment of ergometric function as a non-invasive technique to validate the methodology used for induction of experimental emphysema. Additionally, functional assessments of emphysema are rarely correlated with morphological pulmonary abnormalities caused by induced emphysema. The present study aimed to evaluate the effects of elastase administered by tracheal puncture on pulmonary parenchyma and their corresponding functional impairment. This was evaluated by measuring exercise capacity in C57Bl/6 mice in order to establish a reproducible and safe methodology of inducing experimental emphysema. Thirty six mice underwent ergometric tests before and 28 days after elastase administration. Pancreatic porcine elastase solution was administered by tracheal puncture, which resulted in a significantly decreased exercise capacity, shown by a shorter distance run (-30.5%) and a lower mean velocity (-15%), as well as in failure to increase the elimination of carbon dioxide. The mean linear intercept increased significantly by 50% in tracheal elastase administration. In conclusion, application of elastase by tracheal function in C57Bl/6 induces emphysema, as validated by morphometric analyses, and resulted in a significantly lower exercise capacity, while resulting in a low mortality rate.

Objectives: Cardiac surgery (CC) determines systemic and pulmonary changes that require special care. What motivated several studies conducted in healthy subjects to assess muscle strength were the awareness of the importance of respiratory muscle dysfunction in the development of respiratory failure. These studies used maximal inspiratory pressure (MIP) and maximal expiratory pressure (MEP) values. This study examined the concordance between the values predicted by the equations proposed by Black & Hyatt and Neder, and the measured values in cardiac surgery (CS) patients. Methods: Data were collected from preoperative evaluation forms. The Lin coefficient and Bland-Altman plots were used for statistical concordance analysis. The multiple linear regression and analysis of variance (ANOVA) were used to produce new formulas. Results: There were weak correlations of 0.22 and 0.19 in the MIP analysis and of 0.10 and 0.32 in the MEP analysis, for the formulas of Black & Hyatt and Neder, respectively. The ANOVA for both MIP and MEP were significant (P <0.0001), and the following formulas were developed: MIP = 88.82 - (0.51 x age) + (19.86 x gender), and MEP = 91.36 -(030 x age) + (29.92 x gender). Conclusions: The Black and Hyatt and Neder formulas predict highly discrepant values of MIP and MEP and should not be used to identify muscle weakness in CS patients.

The capuchin monkey is widespread both north and south of the Legal Amazon and in the Brazilian cerrado. Ten clinically healthy capuchin monkeys were submitted to an anatomical and radiographic study of their thoracic cavities. The radiographic evaluation allowed the description of biometric values associated with the cardiac silhouette and thoracic structures. Application of the VHS (vertebral heart size) method showed positive correlation (P<0.05) with depth of the thoracic cavity, as well as between the body length of vertebrae T 3, T 4, T 5 and T 6 and the cardiac length and width. The lung fields showed a diffuse interstitial pattern, more visible in the caudal lung lobes and a bronchial pattern in the middle and cranial lung lobes. The radiographic examination allowed preliminary inferences to be made concerning the syntopy of the thoracic structures and modifiication of the pulmonary patterns and cardiac anatomy for the capuchin monkey.
