Tratamento cirúrgico de drenagem de hematoma subperiosteal de órbita: relato de caso/ Surgical treatment of subperiosteal hematoma of the orbit: case report

Os hematomas subperiosteais de órbita (HSPO) quando são resultantes de trauma de face, associam-se principalmente a fraturas do complexo naso-órbito-etmoidal e clinicamente aparecem associados a edema acentuado, exoftalmia proeminente, deslocamento ínfero-lateral do globo ocular e oftalmoplegia.  Os principais sintomas são fortes queixas álgicas e diminuição da acuidade visual. O diagnóstico precoce do HSPO proporcionando uma intervenção rápida é o que garante um prognóstico favorável – sem riscos de amaurose, meningite e óbito, principais preocupações. Esse estudo objetiva reportar o caso de um paciente de 16 anos, vítima de acidente motociclístico, cursando com trauma de face e HSPO tratado cirurgicamente para drenagem do hematoma e osteossíntese das fraturas faciais

Papel da Cirurgia Bucomaxilofacial na Reabilitação de Pacientes com Câncer de Cabeça e Pescoço

The aim of this article is to investigate and elucidate the impact and relevance of oral and maxillofacial surgery in the rehabilitation process of individuals facing the challenge of head and neck cancer. The indexes SciVerse Scopus, Scientific Electronic Library Online (Scielo), U.S. National Library of Medicine (PUBMED) and ScienceDirect were used as search engines. The articles were contemplated between the years 2000 to 2023. The rehabilitation approach in oral and maxillofacial surgery for patients facing head and neck cancer represents a crucial pillar in the journey of treatment and recovery. The complexity of the functional, aesthetic and psychosocial implications of this type of cancer requires a multidisciplinary and integrated approach that goes beyond the medical aspect. The results demonstrate that this rehabilitation technique can effectively improve the quality of life of patients, allowing restoration of function, recovery of self-image and social reintegration. Collaboration between oral and maxillofacial surgeons, physical therapists, speech therapists and mental health professionals plays a vital role in this process, providing a holistic and comprehensive approach.O objetivo deste artigo é investigar e elucidar o impacto e a relevância da cirurgia bucomaxilofacial no processo de reabilitação de indivíduos que enfrentam o desafio do câncer de cabeça e pescoço. Foram utilizados como motores de busca os indexadores SciVerse Scopus, Scientific Eletronic Library Online (Scielo), U.S. National Library of Medicine (PUBMED) e ScienceDirect. Os artigos foram contemplados entre os anos de 2000 a 2023. A abordagem de reabilitação na cirurgia bucomaxilofacial para pacientes que enfrentam câncer de cabeça e pescoço representa um pilar crucial na jornada de tratamento e recuperação. A complexidade das implicações funcionais, estéticas e psicossociais desse tipo de câncer exige uma abordagem multidisciplinar e integrada que vá além do aspecto médico. Os resultados demonstram que essa técnica de reabilitação pode efetivamente melhorar a qualidade de vida dos pacientes, permitindo a restauração da função, a recuperação da autoimagem e a reintegração social. A colaboração entre cirurgiões bucomaxilofaciais, fisioterapeutas, fonoaudiólogos e profissionais de saúde mental desempenha um papel vital nesse processo, fornecendo uma abordagem holística e abrangente

NEOTROPICAL ALIEN MAMMALS: a data set of occurrence and abundance of alien mammals in the Neotropics

Biological invasion is one of the main threats to native biodiversity. For a species to become invasive, it must be voluntarily or involuntarily introduced by humans into a nonnative habitat. Mammals were among first taxa to be introduced worldwide for game, meat, and labor, yet the number of species introduced in the Neotropics remains unknown. In this data set, we make available occurrence and abundance data on mammal species that (1) transposed a geographical barrier and (2) were voluntarily or involuntarily introduced by humans into the Neotropics. Our data set is composed of 73,738 historical and current georeferenced records on alien mammal species of which around 96% correspond to occurrence data on 77 species belonging to eight orders and 26 families. Data cover 26 continental countries in the Neotropics, ranging from Mexico and its frontier regions (southern Florida and coastal-central Florida in the southeast United States) to Argentina, Paraguay, Chile, and Uruguay, and the 13 countries of Caribbean islands. Our data set also includes neotropical species (e.g., Callithrix sp., Myocastor coypus, Nasua nasua) considered alien in particular areas of Neotropics. The most numerous species in terms of records are from Bos sp. (n = 37,782), Sus scrofa (n = 6,730), and Canis familiaris (n = 10,084); 17 species were represented by only one record (e.g., Syncerus caffer, Cervus timorensis, Cervus unicolor, Canis latrans). Primates have the highest number of species in the data set (n = 20 species), partly because of uncertainties regarding taxonomic identification of the genera Callithrix, which includes the species Callithrix aurita, Callithrix flaviceps, Callithrix geoffroyi, Callithrix jacchus, Callithrix kuhlii, Callithrix penicillata, and their hybrids. This unique data set will be a valuable source of information on invasion risk assessments, biodiversity redistribution and conservation-related research. There are no copyright restrictions.
