The objective of this study was to assess the medical records of the patients whose mycological culture of the hair in Sabouraud Dextrose Agar supplemented with chloramphenicol and cycloheximide was positive for dermathophytes, and review the cases of dermatophytosis. One hundred and thirty six medical records of patients (114 dogs and 22 cats) with dermatophytosis attended in a period of 54 months in the Veterinary Hospital of the UNESP - Botucatu were evaluated. Results obtained in this analysis have shown that the majority of the cultures were positive for Mycrosporum canis. There was no statistical difference between genders, but the number of defined breed dogs presenting dermatophytosis was higher than mongrel dogs. Among feline cases, however, there were a higher number of mongrel cats. The majority of the people and animals in contact with the patients did not report skin lesions. 32,5% of the dogs presented middle intensity itchiness, while in cats itchiness was absent in 77,3% of cases. 69,3% of the animals did not present clinical signs other than dermatological. Mean ages were 4 years in dogs and 3 years in cats. There was no statistical effect of season in the occurrence of dermatophytosis. Among animals submitted to Wood lamp evaluation, 40,9% of the dogs and 33,3% of the cats were positive for dermatophytes. Most dogs had generalized lesions, while the majority of cats presented focal lesions. The most common lesions observed were: alopecia, crusts and erythema.

The objectives of this study were to do a survey of the autoimmune skin diseases and update the records regarding the occurrence of discoid lupus erythematosus in canine and feline populations attended at the Dermatology Service of the College of Veterinary Medicine and Animal Science of UNESP - Botucatu, including species, gender, breed, age, location and characteristic of the lesions. Results have shown that the order of occurrence, regarding the number of cases of autoimmune skin diseases in the animals attended by the Dermatology Service in the period from 1988 to 2007 was: discoid lupus erythematosus, pemphigus folliaceus, uveo-dermatologic syndrome, pemphigus vulgaris, systemic lupus erythematosus, necrolytic migratory erythema, multiforme erythema and plasmacytic pododermatitis. All the animals with discoid lupus erythematosus were dogs and most of them were mongrel females. More frequently breeds affected by discoid lupus erythematosus were german shepherd and akita and the mean age was 56 months. Most lesions were located in nasal planum, narines and periocular area and were characterized by crusting, depigmentation and erythema.

The Interactive Learning Environment (ILE) is an educational model that integrates features of 3D computer graphics and contextualization, in order to transmit a quantum of knowledge (islands of knowledge), in a precise and agile way, to people who do not know the subject. It is a model that uses multimedia resources supported by a contextualized environment to motivate the participants in the retention of knowledge. In this first release, eight relevant subjects in dermatology were addressed and implemented in the 62nd Brazilian Congress of Dermatology. The model was called Dermatúnel. In a period of four days, 3295 people visited it. The results showed that the participants were highly satisfied. The model has a great potential as an educational tool for medical training and guidance to the general public with the purpose of disease prevention.

Contact between humans and coastal areas has increased in recent decades, which has led to an increase in injuries from aquatic animals. The majority of these present dermatological manifestations, and some of them show typical lesions. The highest percentages of injuries that occur in marine environments are associated with invertebrates such as sea urchins, jellyfish and Portuguese men-of-war (echinoderms and cnidarians). In this review, we discuss the clinical, therapeutic and preventive aspects of injuries caused by marine and freshwater invertebrates, focusing on first aid measures and diagnosis for dermatologists and professionals in coastal areas. © 2013 by Anais Brasileiros de Dermatologia.

Doença de Jorge Lobo (DJL) ou lacaziose é infecção crônica granulomatosa da pele e tecido subcutâneo causada pelo fungo Lacazia loboi. As lesões cutâneas em geral são polimorfas, sendo mais comum o tipo nodular de aspecto queloidiano envolvendo principalmente pavilhão auricular e membros. O exame histopatológico constitui o padrão ouro para o diagnóstico. São escassos os estudos sobre correlação clinicopatológica nesta doença. O presente trabalho apresenta como objetivo estudar casos diagnosticados como DJL pelo laboratório de dermatopatologia do Serviço de Dermatologia da Universidade Federal do Pará, no período de 1967 a 2009. Foi realizada a revisão dos prontuários médicos e estudadas as características demográficas, histológicas, clínicas e localização das lesões. 59 biópsias de 45 pacientes foram avaliadas. A amostra foi composta de 37 homens e oito mulheres, com média de idade de 50 anos. A maioria dos pacientes era lavrador (55%), dos quais 93% eram do sexo masculino. O aspecto queloidiano correspondeu a 59% das lesões. Com menor freqüência foram observadas lesões verruciformes (8%), placa (3%), gomosa (1%) e lesão macular hipercrômica (1%). A maioria das lesões estava localizada nos membros inferiores (56%). Histopatologicamente, a camada córnea encontrava-se hiperceratósica em 71% das biópsias, com paraceratose em 37% e ortoceratose em 50%. A eliminação transepidérmica (ETE) do parasitas foi observada em 36% dos casos e nestes, a hiperceratose estava presente em 95% (p = 0,0121) e a paraceratose em 90% (p< 0,0001). A epiderme apresentava aspecto hiperplásico em 58%, atrófica em 29%, normal em 12% e ulcerada em 8%. Nos casos em que houve ETE a epiderme apresentava-se hiperplásica em 86% (p = 0,0054). Observou-se presença de parasitas na epiderme em 30%, das quais 89% apresentavam ETE associada (p< 0,0001). Não houve relação estatisticamente significante entre a ocorrência de ETE e o aspecto clínico da lesão (p = 0,4231). Linfócitos, macrófagos e células gigantes do tipo corpo estranho foram as células predominantes do infiltrado (100% dos casos). Plasmócitos foram observados em 35%, neutrófilos em 15% e eosinófilos em 11% dos casos. Houve relação estatisticamente significante entre a ocorrência de ETE e presença de neutrófilos no infiltrado (p = 0,0016). Em 10% esteve presente reação exsudativa e 11% áreas de necrose isoladas. Células gigantes do tipo Langhans foram observadas em 59% das biópsias, corpos asteróides em 5%, células pseudo-Gaucher em 69% e fibrose em 96%. O infiltrado se estendia à derme reticular em todos os casos e para a derme profunda em 88% (52/59). Em 10% (6/59) dos casos houve disseminação do infiltrado para a gordura subcutânea, com encontro do parasita em um caso. Quanto à distribuição por idade, sexo e profissão dos pacientes, os dados foram superponíveis aos da literatura. A análise dos resultados, portanto, permitiu avaliar o perfil epidemiológico, clínico e histopatológico da doença, que diferiram, em alguns aspectos, dos achados classicamente descritos na literatura, especialmente em relação às características da epiderme, infiltrado inflamatório e localização das lesões.

Nowadays, in any area that acts within the veterinary medicine, we talk a lot of specialists. Specialists in neurology, cardiology, dermatology, endocrinology, finally, more specialized in a subject, better is the veterinarian. However, on one hand to deepen the knowledge helped in the discovery of new diagnostics and treatments, secondly, a bit lost sight of the patient as a whole. Traditional Chinese medicine, one of whose branches is acupuncture, is aimed at exactly this approach to be fully alive, where all body is interconnected and the disease is not seen as the imbalance of one system, but, as the imbalance between our being and the environment external. Acupuncture is an alternative in the treatment of many diseases, among them Cauda Equina Syndrome, and consists of stimulating specific points on the body surface, which help the body return to its natural harmony. A Cauda Equina Syndrome is a frame subsequent to a neuromuscular spinal cord at the level of the spinal canal of the lower lumbar spine and sacral, whose treatment is almost always surgical. This study aims to show the relevance of acupuncture treatment in this condition and report the importance of the philosophy of traditional Chinese medicine nowadays, even when their arms are not in the treatment of choice
