Summary:Aim: For the surgical therapy of differentiated thyroid cancer precise guidelines are applied by the German medical societies. In a retrospective multicenter study, we investigated the following issues: Are the current guidelines respected?. Is there a difference concerning the surgical radicalism and the outcome?. Does the perioperative morbidity increase with the higher radicalism of the procedure?. Patients, methods: Data gained from 102 patients from 17 regional referral hospitals who underwent surgery for thyroid cancer and a following radioiodine treatment (mean follow up: 42.7 [24-79] months) were analyzed. At least 71 criterias were analyzed in a SPSS file. Results: 46.1% of carcinomas were incidentally detected during goiter surgery. The thyroid cancer (papillary n = 78; follicular n = 24) occurred in 87% unilateral and in 13% bilateral. Papillary carcinomas <1 cm were detected in 25 cases; in five of these cases (20%) contralateral carcinomas <1 cm were found. There were significant differences concerning the surgical radicalism: a range from hemithyroidectomy to radical thyroidectomy with lateral neck dissection. Analysis of the histopathologic reports revealed that lymph node dissection was not performed according to guidelines in 55% of all patients. The perioperative morbidity was lower in departments with a high case load. The postoperative dysfunction of the recurrent laryngeal nerve (mean: 7.9% total / 4.9% nerves at risk) variated highly, depending on differences in radicalism and hospitals. Up to now these variations in surgical treatment have shown no differences in their outcome and survival rates, when followed by radioiodine therapy. Conclusion: Current surgical regimes did not follow the guidelines in more than 50% of all cases. This low acceptance has to be discussed. The actual discussion about principles of treatment regarding, the socalled papillary microcarcinomas (old term) has to be respected within the current guidelines.

Primary cutaneous follicle center lymphoma (PCFCL) accounts for the majority of primary cutaneous B-cell lymphomas. We report a 60-year-old womanwith PCFCL. She had a red nodule (25 × 25 mm) on the right side of the lower jaw. She was diagnosed with PCFCL by skin biopsy. And then, she was treated with radiation therapy (total 30.6 Gy), which completely eliminated the nodule. Our case suggests that radiation therapy may be a first choice for PCFCL patients with a solitary lesion or localized lesions.

This article presents information about modern principles of diagnosis and treatment of HPV-associated diseases. Behind cervical cancer morbidity and mortality rates over the past 10 years increase significantly. Examination and observation of patients with human papillomavirus persistence of highly oncogenic types is important a link in cancer prevention. The article presents diagnostic methods, treatment of cervical diseases, as well as the possibility of pharmacotherapy in HPV-associated diseases.

The cranial kinesis and movements of the lower jaw in Typhlops are analyzed, with special emphasis placed on the functions of the jugomandibular ligament. The musculature of the Typhlops jaw apparatus is described. The role of movements of the quadrato-mandibular and palato-maxillary systems in feeding mechanics and functioning of the jaw apparatus muscles is discussed.

Relevance. The high prevalence of dysplastic disorders involving connective tissue, and its negative effecton the development of dentoalveolar anomalies, carious and non-carious lesions of the teeth, periodontopathy, temporomandibular joint issues in the child population, lay the basis for improving diagnostics algorithms. Enhancing the already available standards is of greatest importance for children at the initial stages of diagnostics when evaluating the external signs of dysplastic disorders.Purpose – improving diagnostics algorithms for connective tissue dysplasia (CTD) in children in primary dental care facilities based on the evaluation of external phenotype signs and maxillofacial morphological features.Materials and methods. Depending on the external phenotype manifestations severity, as well as on laboratory, clinical and instrumental signs, the 92 children with CTD were divided into groups with mild, moderate and severe degrees of undifferentiated dysplasia. Gnathometric and biometric examinations of the maxillofacial area were performed through traditional methods, whereas the diagnosis was set following the generally accepted classifications. The diagnosis confirmation implied evaluation through cone beam computed imaging.Results. The nature and the intensity of morphofunctional disorders in the craniofacial structures (“small” stigmas) depend on the severity of connective tissue dysplastic disorders.Conclusions. The change direction vector in the facial and brain parts of cranium in children with CTD is aimed at increasing hypoplastic tendencies and dolichocephalia, proof to that being the following constitutional and morphological features: the prevalence of the vertical type of face skeleton growth over the horizontal and neutral ones; a convex face profile with a disproportionate general heights of the face skeleton; reduction of latitudinal with an increase in altitude facial parameters; a narrow short branch of the lower jaw; the upper jaw displaced downwards and forward; a decrease in the size of the apical basis of the lower dentition, the lower jaw body, as well as the height and width of the lower jaw branches.

1. Background: Loss of permanent teeth is very common, affected chewing function, speech and aesthetics; restoration of missing teeth with dental implant has several advantages, but we need thoroughly study the clinical and X ray features at the position at missing teeth, then to select the type of implant and make the best plan for the dental implant patients. 2. Materials and method: Cross-section descriptive study. From January 2009 to November 2010, study with 56 patients with 102 implants of MIS and Megagen systems at the Faculty of Odonto-Stomatology, Hue College of Medicine and Pharmacy and Vietnam-Cuba Hospital in Ha Noi. 3. Results: Distributed equally in male and female, common ages 40 – 59 (55,4%), the majority of missing teeth occurs in the lower jaw (63,8%) and especially, the teeth 36 and 46 (25,4%). The majority of missing teeth due to dental caries, dental pulp and apical diseases (64,7%) of the molar teeth (51,9%); the most position of missing tooth have enough bone for dental implants (87,3%), time of tooth loss and bone status in the position of tooth loss are related to each other (p < 0,01). Diameter and length of implant usually used 4.0 – 6.0 mm (63,7%) and 8.5 – 13.0 mm (83,3%). 4. Conclusion: Clinical and X ray features of edentulous patients has an important role in determining the type of implants and treatment planning of dental implants. Key words: Loss of permanent teeth, X ray and clinical features, Dental implant.

Data from Web of Science, SCOPUS, Pub Med, Medline, E-library, and other sources was used in writing this article. The main focus was directed towards literature written in English. The selection of literature was based on such concepts as: etiopathogenesis, historical principles of treatment, methods of surgical and non-surgical intervention. Data from metanalysis publications and randomized clinical trials pertaining to the treatment of the pilonidal sinus at various stages of its formation was used, as well.
