A rare cervical malformative syndrome. Mento-sternal fissure

There is no doubt that many psycho-emotional factors interfere with and produce changes in reproduction. Neglecting them means depriving our actions of efficiency because they will be incomplete. The adoption of the general term malformation syndrome to encompass all malformations draws attention on policy conditions set and communicate any teratologic process. Being a metabolic disease with clinical manifestations and multiple biochemical alterations, diabetes is a frightening scar of our century, considered to be the most important disease, which in itself leads to buccal-maxillo-facial polymorphic alterations. The study group consisted of 90 patients with congenital diabetes and stomatologic problems, aged between 26 and 65 years, the average age being 45 years. Distribution by gender: 60 men and30 women. Periodontal lesions are disturbing or distressing inflammation hyperplasic tissues of periodontium and quantity independence tissue affected to delineate both gingivitis and periodontitis. The most important factor in the epidemiology of the periodontal disease for prophylaxis is oral hygiene.

OBJECTIVE: To report a case of gastroschisis in a newborn secondary to carbimazole exposure in utero. CASE SUMMARY: A 25-year-old white woman was treated for Graves disease with carbimazole throughout pregnancy. A boy was born prematurely by vaginal delivery, with a gastroschisis without associated malformative syndrome. Death occurred in the 25th hour of life after surgical repair. DISCUSSION: Carbimazole is completely metabolized to methimazole after absorption. Carbimazole or methimazole intake during pregnancy has been associated with an increased incidence of scalp aplasia. Abdominal wall defects secondary to carbimazole or methimazole exposure in utero seem to be a rare occurrence. However, other cases of abdominal wall defects have been reported in 4 newborns, 2 of them associated with scalp aplasia. An objective causality assessment revealed that the relationship between the gastroschisis and the exposure to carbimazole in utero was possible. CONCLUSIONS: It is important to emphasize the possible risk of abdominal wall defects in newborns to pregnant women taking carbimazole or methimazole.

Malformative Syndrome

AbstractWe present a case of congenital multiple coronary artery–left ventricle micro-fistulas, which were treated with propranolol disappearing within 6 months. She had a malformative syndrome associated with a chromosomal abnormality. The treatment for coronary artery fistula includes surgical ligation and transcatheter closure, but they are not indicated in congenital micro-fistulas. We propose propranolol as a treatment in this type of diffuse fistula.

Ophthalmoscopic Examination

SUMMARYThe case of twin-sisters, 24 years old, showing congenital squint, that was corrected by surgery, hypermetropia and astigmatism is presented. The ophthalmoscopic examination revealed in one eye of both sisters, and specular-like, tortuosity of the retinal vessels, which in a subject is accompanied by twisted arteries in the vitreous body; in the other twin-sister an epipapillary membrane was observed, which is present in analogous form also in a single born brother. Furthermore, dystrophic lesions of the retina were present specular-like in both sisters. It is the first time that such a malformative syndrome is observed in concordant MZ twins.
