Contribui����o da tomografia computadorizada no diagn��stico e no estudo p��s-operat��rio dos tumores selares

The computerized tomography (C.T.) of 18 pacients with sellar tumours were analysed. The C.T. made before surgery in 6 cases was positive in 3 and the type of tumour suggested by C.T. was confirmed in 3. Twelve pacients had a C.T. investigation after surgery and the examination suggest recurrent tumour in 5. Two of these were re-operated. One pacient with colesteatoma had the recurrent tumour verified by surgery and the other, with a pituitary adenoma during re-operation was noted only cicatricial tissue at sellar region.

OBJETIVO: Apresentar as caracter��sticas cl��nicas, tratamento cir��rgico e achado histol��gico de um caso de lipoidoproteinose. DESCRI����O DO CASO: Crian��a do sexo masculino, cinco anos de idade, branco, que procurou atendimento odontol��gico na Universidade. A m��e da crian��a relatou presen��a de intensa halitose e dificuldade na alimenta����o e higieniza����o bucal, decorrentes de crescimento gengival generalizado nos arcos dent��rios superior e inferior. No exame cl��nico, verificaram-se comprometimento funcional e est��tico generalizado (rouquid��o, artralgia bilateral no joelho e tornozelo, les��es tumorais nas orelhas, entre outros), al��m de extensa hiperplasia gengival em ambos os arcos dent��rios. Optou-se pelo tratamento cir��rgico, com remo����o do tecido hiperpl��sico e exodontia de todos os dentes dec��duos e de dois permanentes. O exame histopatol��gico da pe��a cir��rgica confirmou o diagn��stico de lipoidoproteinose. COMENT��RIOS: A lipoidoproteinose �� uma doen��a rara caracterizada pela deposi����o da subst��ncia hialina na pele, membranas mucosas e nos ��rg��os internos. Os sinais que podem surgir ap��s o nascimento, s��o: rouquid��o; les��es p��pulo-nodulares na cabe��a, pesco��o e membros; les��es papulares amareladas nas margens das p��lpebras. O curso desta doen��a �� benigno e cr��nico.

Effect of biofunctionalized implant surface on osseointegration: a histomorphometric study in dogs

Among the different properties that influence bone apposition around implants, the chemical or biochemical composition of implant surface may interfere on its acceptance by the surrounding bone. The aim of this study was to investigate if a biofunctionalization of implant surface influences the bone apposition in a dog model and to compare it with other surfaces, such as a microstructured created by the grit-blasting/acid-etching process. Eight young adult male mongrel dogs had the bilateral mandibular premolars extracted and each one received 6 implants after 12 weeks, totaling 48 implants in the experiment. Four groups of implants were formed with the same microrough topography with or without some kind of biofunctionalization treatment. After histomorphometric analysis, it was observed that the modified microstructured surface with a "low concentration of the bioactive peptide" provided a higher adjacent bone density (54.6%) when compared to the other groups (microstructured + HA coating = 46.0%, microstructured only = 45.3% and microstructured + "high concentration of the bioactive peptide" = 40.7%), but this difference was not statistically significant. In conclusion, biofunctionalization of the implant surface might interfere in the bone apposition around implants, especially in terms of bone density. Different concentrations of bioactive peptide lead to different results.

Bone response to biosilicates�� with different crystal phases

The aim of this study was to investigate the histological and histomorphometrical bone response to three Biosilicates with different crystal phases comparing them to Bioglass��45S5 implants used as control. Ceramic glass Biosilicate and Bioglass��45S5 implants were bilaterally inserted in rabbit femurs and harvested after 8 and 12 weeks. Histological examination did not revealed persistent inflammation or foreign body reaction at implantation sites. Bone and a layer of soft tissue were observed in close contact with the implant surfaces in the medullary canal. The connective tissue presented few elongated cells and collagen fibers located parallel to implant surface. Cortical portion after 8 weeks was the only area that demonstrated significant difference between all tested materials, with Biosilicate 1F and Biosilicate 2F presenting higher bone formation than Bioglass��45S5 and Biosilicate�� vitreo (p=0.02). All other areas and periods were statistically non-significant (p>0.05). In conclusion, all tested materials were considered biocompatible, demonstrating surface bone formation and a satisfactory behavior at biological environment.

Rehabilitation of severely resorbed edentulous mandible using the modified visor osteotomy technique

The prosthetic rehabilitation of an atrophic mandible is usually unsatisfactory due to the lack of support tissues, mainly bone and keratinized mucosa for treatment with osseointegrated implants or even conventional prosthesis. The prosthetic instability leads to social and functional limitations and chronic physical trauma decreasing the patient's quality of life. A 53-year-old female patient sought care at our surgical service complaining of impairment of her masticatory function associated with the instability of the lower total prosthetic denture. The clinical and complementary exams revealed edentulism in both arches, while the mandibular arch presented severe reabsorption resulting in denture instability and chronic trauma to the oral mucosa. The proposed treatment plan consisted in the mandibular rehabilitation with osseointegrated implants and fixed Br��nemark's protocol prosthesis after mandibular reconstruction applying the modified visor osteotomy technique. The proposed technique offered predictable results for reconstruction of the severely resorbed edentulous mandible and posterior rehabilitation with osseointegrated implants.

Dimens��es nasofaringeanas e faciais em diferentes padr��es morfol��gicos

OBJETIVO: o presente estudo prop��e-se a comparar as dimens��es da nasofaringe e as caracter��sticas esquel��ticas avaliadas por exame cefalom��trico, em indiv��duos com padr��es morfol��gicos distintos. M��TODOS: foram utilizadas 90 telerradiografias de pacientes de ambos os g��neros, de 12 a 16 anos de idade, as quais foram igualmente divididas em tr��s grupos distintos, referentes aos padr��es morfol��gicos - braquifacial, mesofacial e dolicofacial. Foram realizadas medi����es espec��ficas da regi��o nasofaringeana (ad1-Ptm, ad2-Ptm, ad1-Ba, ad2-S0, (ad1-ad2-S0-Ba-ad1/Ptm-S 0-Ba-Ptm) X 100, e Ptm-Ba) e relativas ao padr��o esquel��tico da face. RESULTADOS: observou-se que os pacientes dolicofaciais apresentaram menor profundidade sagital ��ssea (Ptm-Ba) e da via a��rea da nasofaringe (ad1-Ptm e ad2-Ptm). Sugere-se que essas diferen��as estejam relacionadas a um posicionamento relativamente mais posterior da maxila, comum a esses pacientes. Todavia, n��o foram detectadas diferen��as quanto �� espessura de tecido mole na parede posterior nasofaringeana (ad1-Ba e ad2-S0), ou �� sua propor����o em rela����o a toda a ��rea delimitada para a nasofaringe [(ad1-ad2-S0-Ba-ad1/Ptm-S 0-Ba-Ptm) X 100]. CONCLUS��O: sugere-se, portanto, que as caracter��sticas faciais de excesso vertical encontradas em pacientes dolicofaciais podem ocorrer, dentre outros fatores, em virtude da obstru����o da via a��rea nasofaringeana, uma vez que tais dimens��es se apresentaram menores para os dolicofaciais.

Subcutaneous connective tissue response to primary root canal filling materials

This study evaluated the response of the subcutaneous connective tissue of BALB/c mice to root filling materials indicated for primary teeth: zinc oxide/eugenol cement (ZOE), Calen paste thickened with zinc oxide (Calen/ZO) and Sealapex sealer. The mice (n=102) received polyethylene tube implants with the materials, thereby forming 11 groups, as follows: I, II, III: Calen/ZO for 7, 21 and 63 days, respectively; IV, V, VI: Sealapex for 7, 21 and 63 days, respectively; VII, VIII, IX: ZOE for 7, 21 and 63 days, respectively; X and XI: empty tube for 7 and 21 days, respectively. The biopsied tissues were submitted to histological analysis (descriptive analysis and semi-quantitative analysis using a scoring system for collagen fiber formation, tissue thickness and inflammatory infiltrate). A quantitative analysis was performed by measuring the area and thickness of the granulomatous reactionary tissue (GRT). Data were analyzed by Kruskal-Wallis, ANOVA and Tukey's post-hoc tests (?=0.05). There was no significant difference (p&gt;0.05) among the materials with respect to collagen fiber formation or GRT thickness. However, Calen/ZO produced the least severe inflammatory infiltrate (p<0.05). The area of the GRT was significantly smaller (p<0.05) for Calen/ZO and Sealapex. In conclusion, Calen/ZO presented the best tissue reaction, followed by Sealapex and ZOE.
