VERTEBRAL HYDATIDOSIS: BIBLIOGRAPHICAL REVIEW AND CLINICAL CASE REPORT

ABSTRACT We will present a literature review of the vertebral location of hydatidosis. It is a rare, locally aggressive condition with a high recurrence rate that requires clinical treatment (antihelminthic drugs) and surgery, with decompression of the spinal canal. We report a case with more than 11 years of follow-up, which required surgical treatment on 4 occasions. Level of Evidence V; Therapeutic-investigational study of treatment results.

Review Study

The styloid process is a bone projection that originates in the tympanic portion of the temporal bone. The enlongation of the styloid process, or the ossification of the styloid process, can originate a series of symptoms such as dysphagia, odynophagia, facial pain, otalgia, headache, tinnitus and trismus, establishing the clinical picture of Eagle Syndrome. In this report, we present an important clinical case of adult patient diagnosed with Eagle’s Syndrome who underwent surgery for reduction of the enlongated styloid process, by intraoral approach, added to a literature review study.

AbstractObjective:We report two extremely rare cases of symptomatic nasopharyngeal branchial cleft cyst treated by powered instrument assisted marsupialisation.Methods:Case report and literature review concerning nasopharyngeal branchial cleft cyst and surgical treatment methods.Results:The first case was a two-year-old boy with a 1 × 2 cm, cystic, oropharyngeal mass, who also had severe snoring and sleep apnoea. The second case was a 56-year-old man with right nasal obstruction and a sensation of fullness in the right ear. In both cases, we performed endoscopic marsupialisation using a powered instrument. There was no recurrence in either case over two years of follow up.Conclusion:Powered instrument marsupialisation is a simple, effective and less invasive technique for the treatment of nasopharyngeal branchial cleft cyst.

Endodontic Retreatment

AbstractNon-surgical endodontic retreatment should always be the first option for reintervention when the initial endodontic treatment fails. The surgical treatment, called periradicular surgery, will be the procedure of choice when there is no success after the conventional endodontic retreatment. The purpose of this article is to describe clinical case of endodontic surgery, associated with guided tissue regeneration (GTR). A male patient, 24 years old, was referred for endodontic surgery on tooth 12 after two unsuccessful endodontic interventions. During the surgery, osteotomy, lesion curettage, apicectomy, retrograde obturation with Mineral Trioxide Aggregate (MTA), and filling of the bone failure with lyophilized bone and reabsorbable collagen membrane were performed. After six months of follow-up, the patient did not present any type of painful symptomatology. The endodontic surgery, associated with a technique of guided tissue regeneration, was efficient to solve this clinical case. Keywords: Endodontics. Apicoectomy. Guided Tissue Regeneration. Resumo O retratamento endodôntico não cirúrgico deve sempre ser a primeira opção de reintervenção quando o tratamento endodôntico inicial falha. Já o tratamento cirúrgico, ou cirurgia parendodôntica, será o procedimento de escolha quando não há sucesso após o retratamento endodôntico convencional. O objetivo deste artigo é descrever um caso clínico de cirurgia parendodôntica, associada à regeneração tecidual guiada (RTG). O paciente, gênero masculino, 24 anos, foi encaminhado para cirurgia parendodôntica no dente 12 após duas intervenções endodônticas sem sucesso. Durante a cirurgia foram realizadas manobras de osteotomia, curetagem da lesão, apicectomia, obturação retrógrada com Mineral Trióxido Agregado (MTA), além de preenchimento da falha óssea com osso liofilizado e membrana de colágeno reabsorvível. Após seis meses de acompanhamento do caso, o paciente não apresentou nenhum tipo de sintomatologia dolorosa. A cirurgia parendodôntica, associada à técnica de regeneração tecidual guiada, foi eficiente para solucionar este caso clínico. Palavras-chave: Endodontia. Apicectomia. Regeneração Tecidual Guiada.

Talipes Equinovarus

The authors provide a review of the principles of talectomy as a surgical treatment option for severe, rigid, and resistant clubfoot deformities. Such deformities are associated with a high recurrence rate and frequently involve a large number of surgical interventions to attain a satisfactory result. Talectomy has been successfully used as both a primary and salvage procedure to treat such deformities, often eliminating the need for subsequent surgeries. A discussion of the operative technique, indications, advantages, and common complications associated with the procedure is presented. In addition, a case report of talectomy used to treat a severe, bilateral clubfoot deformity in a 4-year-old boy is included.

Traumatic Head

AbstractEncephalocele is a rare condition that consists of herniation of cerebral matter through openings of dura and skull. A majority of encephaloceles are congenital and manifest in childhood. We present a case of a 45-year-old man presenting with contralateral hemiparesis and found to have an extremely rare phenomenon of a symptomatic posttraumatic parietal intradiploic encephalocele (IE) manifesting 36 years following pediatric traumatic head injury. Computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging confirmed herniation of brain tissue into the intradiploic space. Surgical treatment with reduction of the encephalocele achieved near resolution of preoperative hemiparesis on follow-up. The pathogenesis and a literature review of IE are discussed.

Abstract Background Small intestine duplication cysts (SIDCs) are rare congenital anatomical abnormalities of the digestive tract and a rare cause of hematochezia. Case presentation We describe an adult female presented with recurrent hematochezia. The routine gastric endoscope and colonic endoscope showed no positive findings. Abdominal CT scan indicated intussusception due to the "doughnut" sign, but the patient had no typical symptoms. Two subsequent capsule endoscopes revealed a protruding lesion with bleeding in the distal ileum. Surgical resection was performed and revealed a case of SIDC measuring 6 * 2 cm located inside the ileum cavity. The patient remained symptom-free throughout a 7-year follow-up period. Conclusion SIDCs located inside the enteric cavity can easily be misdiagnosed as intussusception by routine radiologic examinations.

Histopathological Results

Most reported cases of middle ear adenoma (MEA) have focused on histopathology because MEA is usually diagnosed postoperatively, which is considered as a major setback. We focused on the surgical aspect of the disease to facilitate a preoperative diagnosis, resulting in prompt and proper treatment, without requiring a second stage of surgical treatment. In this report, we present the differential diagnoses in a 40-year-old man with MEA requiring surgical treatment. Preoperatively, the patient was suspected to have an MEA. An analysis of the surgical procedures in similar misdiagnosed tumors has enabled us to assess surgical procedures in cases wherein the preoperative diagnosis does not coincide with the postoperative histopathological results.
