AIMS: To determine how often ingested foreign bodies are found and what parameters may predict their retrieval. METHODS: During 1 year, we prospectively studied all patients referred to our Ear Nose and Throat Emergency Unit because of foreign body ingestion. RESULTS: During the study, 204 (median age-42 years [10 months-84 years]) patients were admitted because of ingested foreign body. The most common was fis...

OBJECTIVE: The transmission of the gastric pathogen Helicobacter pylori involves the oral route. Molecular techniques have allowed the detection of H. pylori DNA in samples of the oral cavity, although culture of H. pylori from these type of samples has been sporadic. Studies have tried to demonstrate the presence of H. pylori in adenotonsillar tissue, with contradictory results. Our aim was to clarify whether ...

Gastric infection with Helicobacter pylori is the most common chronic infection worldwide. One of the routes of transmission of the infection is the oral route. Molecular techniques have allowed the detection of H. pylori DNA in samples of the oral cavity, although culture of H. pylori from these types of samples has been sporadic. Studies have tried to demonstrate the presence of H. pylori in adenotonsillar ti...
Os autores descrevem um caso clínico de uma mulher de 51 anos, obesa, com hipertensão arterial e cardiopatia isquémica, internada por agravamento de dor retro-esternal de grande intensidade e evolução arrastada. Após exclusão de episódio agudo de isquemia do miocárdio, o estudo desta doente revelou lesão óssea expansiva de arco costal direito (5cm x 4cm x 3.5cm), adjacente ao corpo vertebral, mal definida, com ...
Using robots in industrial welding operations is common but far from being a streamlined technological process. The problems are with the robots, still in their early design stages and difficult to use and program by regular operators; the welding process, which is complex and not really well known and the human-machine interfaces, which are unnatural and not really working. In this article, these problems are ...
Concerning a clinical situation of intralobar pulmonary sequestration, in a seventeen year old young man, the authors review this nosological entity. They emphasize the importance of the complementary examens of diagnosis, namely of thoracic scan and aortography, for the establishment of the said diagnosis. ; Concerning a clinical situation of intralobar pulmonary sequestration, in a seventeen year old young m...
