Resumen (español):Objetivo: Describir un caso de laceración de mucosa labial por incrustación de anzuelo de pescar en lactante mayor, resaltando la terapéutica de remoción, que es un accidente poco frecuente. Reporte de caso: Paciente lactante mayor masculino, de un año de edad, que acude a la Unidad de Odontopediatría del Hospital Universitario de Maracaibo por presentar objeto punzo-penetrante compatible con anzuelo de pescar en zona de mucosa vestibular del labio inferior. Bajo anestesia local, se realiza asepsia de la zona, se retira el objeto con técnica retrograda y sinéresis de los tejidos con sutura reabsorbible. Se dieron indicaciones al representante de la terapia farmacológica a administrar. Conclusión: los traumatismos son la principal causa de urgencia en el área de odontopediatría, debemos conocer los procedimientos necesarios que incluyen la correcta anamnesis y la elaboración de historia clínica correspondiente para seleccionar el tratamiento más adecuado para el tipo de accidente que se presente, considerando el uso de antibióticos y la aplicación de vacuna toxoide. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] Objetive: To describe a case of labial mucosa laceration by embedding fishhook in an infant, highlighting the therapeutic removal, because it is a rare accident. We present a case of a 5 year old boy, who attended the Operative Dental Service of the National Institute of Child Health, because he had a crown fracture previously treated in maxillary incisor. The treatment consisted in making an anterior telescopic maintainer to supply this deficiency. Case report: Patient male infant, of one year old, who came to the Dentistry Unit of the University Hospital of Maracaibo by daggersharp object file compatible with fishhook in area of buccal mucosa of the lower lip. Under local anesthesia, antisepsis of the area is performed; the object with technical and syneresis retrograde tissue with absorbable suture is removed. Instructions were given to the representative of the drug therapy administered. Conclusión: Injuries are the leading cause of emergency in the area of dentistry, we must know the necessary procedures including correct history and the development of corresponding clinical history to select the most appropriate treatment for the type of accident that is present, considering the antibiotics and applying toxoid vaccine.

Taking into consideration a study published 10 years ago on sexual disturbances of students at the University of São Paulo, the importance of the subject is discussed, along with the creation in 1993 of the Sexuality Project at the university hospital of the University of São Paulo School of Medicine. In its first year, this multidisciplinary project attended 140 patients with sexual dysfunctions (associated or not to other clinical manifestations); the majority were younger than 60 years-old, and 80 percent were male.

This study aimed to compare the radiographic characteristics of patients with pulmonary tuberculosis (TB) and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection with those of HIV-negative patients. In all, 275 TB patients attending the outpatients clinics at the University Hospital/UFPE, were studied from January 1997 to March 1999. Thirty nine (14.2%) of them were HIV+, with a higher frequency of males in this group (p=0.044). Seventy-five percent of the HIV+ patients and 19% of the HIV- had a negative tuberculin test (PPD) (p < 0.001). The proportion of positive sputum smears in the two groups was similar. The radiological finding most strongly associated with co-infection was absence of cavitation (p < 0.001). It may therefore be concluded that the lack of cavitation in patients with pulmonary TB may be considered a useful indicator of the need to investigate HIV infection. This approach could contribute to increasing the effectiveness of local health services, by offering appropriate treatment to co-infected patients.

Abstract: Objective: To describe the clinical and sociodemographic characteristics of patients with temporomandibular joint (TMJ) dysfunction at the University Hospital of Maracaibo. Methods: A retrospective study was conducted by assessing the clinical history of patients with TMJ dysfunction who underwent orthopedic treatment in the Oral Surgery Unit of the Dentistry Service of the University Hospital of Maracaibo. Information was collected on socio-demographic characteristics (age, gender, origin, and occupation) and clinical findings related to the presence, location, area, beginning, frequency, cause, and duration of pain, and signs present during mandibular dynamics; additionally, a structural and functional diagnosis was made. The data were processed and analyzed using SPSS v.9. Results: 221 patients were included, with only 10% of the disorders observed in males. Regarding occupation, 39.1% worked at home and 28.3% were students. 97.2% of patients presented pain, and of these, pain was localized in 75%. During mandibular movement with maximum opening, 47.4% showed some difficulty, which was more significant in males. TMJ noises were noted in 74.9%, more often in females. In addition, the previous partial displacement of a disk with recapture presented an incidence of 66.4%. Conclusion: The prevalence of TMJ dysfunction was higher in female patients and in adulthood. Noises were present with a high frequency, as was limited mandibular movement.

The aim of the study was to determine the presence of acupuncture ear points in neonates with Neonatal Abstinence Syndrome (NAS). NAS occurs in the first days of life in neonates whose mothers have a history of drug abuse, and may also occur in neonates whose mothers are currently following substitution therapy. The patients are neonates with NAS admitted over one year to the Division of Neonatology at the University Hospital Graz. The examination took place on the third day after delivery (mean value 70.3 hours) and was performed by a neuronal pen (PS 3 © Silberbauer, Vienna, Austria). An integrated sound and optical signal detected the active ear points that were then placed on an ear map. We investigated six neonates (four male, two female). All investigated neonates showed the presence of active ear acupuncture points. The psychovegetative rim was the most common organic area of the children, following by a few organic points. This corresponds with the results found in healthy neonates. In all neonates with NAS, we found the presence of psychic ear points. The identified psychic ear points are the frustration-point, R-point and the psychotropic area nasal from the incisura intertragica. In all neonates with NAS, active organic and psychic ear points were detectable in both ears. In the future, it could be possible to use active ear points for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes.

Background: To determine the epidemiological aspects of genital prolapse; to describe the different clinical aspects of genital prolapse observed and to evaluate the therapeutic management of genital prolapse at the University hospital of Cocody (UH-C).Methods: We did an observational and transversal study with a descriptive purpose over 5 years from 2012 to 2016 in the Gynecology and obstetrics department of UH-C. The studied population was all cases of genital prolapse diagnosed and treated in the service during the period of the study. A follow-up over one year after surgery has been observed to evaluate surgical outcomes and recurrences. Genital prolapse was generally a uterine prolapse at stage 3 or 4. It was associated to cystocele in 31.4%. We did not find stress urinary incontinence associated with prolapse in our study. The surgical intervention performed was, in the majority case, the triple perineal intervention with success of 95.6%. A case of recurrence in the form of cystocele has been observed to a year of decline.Results: Genital prolapse was relatively common. It accounted for 0.5% of all gynecological visits. Women were young with an average age of 39.5 years. 62.9% were multiparous. 62.5% had given birth at least once at home without medical assistance. The reason for consultation the most watched was the projection of body at the vulva.Conclusions: Genital prolapse is a condition under estimated in Côte d'Ivoire. It represented 0.5% of the gynecological visits. Obstetric traumas were frequently found in our young patients with genital prolapse. The sociocultural considerations have contributed to delay consultations, to observe very advanced stages. The surgery performed was mainly the perineal triple surgery.
