Basal cell carcinoma is a slow-growing malignant skin tumor and its often found in elderly patients on sun exposed areas that confirming chronic UV radiation. Demographic, clinical and histological characteristics of the patients have been analyzed of nodular type of basal cell carcinoma in order to determine correlation between localization, duration and tumor size. Database was searched for medical records of patients with nodular BCC evaluated in Health Center of Kosovska Mitrovica and Clinical Center of Nis during the period of 2006 through 2008 year with the focus on demographic characteristics, localization, duration, size and clinical and histological characteristics of the tumor. Results: 36 patients with nodular BCC, 14 female and 22 male, in average old between 72.5±7.26 years of age. Two thirds of patients is older than 60 years and only 3 (8.33%) male patients are younger than 60 years of age. 72.11% of patients living in rural areas unlike 27.77% that lives in urban areas. Nodular type is occurring more often in males on skin of frontal and zygomatical region and in females on zygomatic and nose region. We found that the size of the tumor is in close correlation with length of duration of illness. Nodal BCC is more common in elderly male patients. Nodular type is occurring more often in males on skin of frontal and zygomatical region with a different distribution among women.

During pregnancy, many women experience vaginal infections due weakening of the immune system and changes in hormonal status. The symptoms that accompany this occurrence are common: burning, itching, pain during sexual intercourse and abundant malodorous discharge. Treatment of these infections is essential and must be vigorously and effectively, both for the mother and the fetus, because women are at high risk of serious complications, such as premature birth and miscarriage. This problem requires serious approach.

Introduction: Tobacco smoke is one of the most important environmental pollutants (ETS). Passive exposure to tobacco smoke is involuntary and it presents a health risk for children. Objective: To establish if there are differences in Peak Expiratory Flow Rates (PEF) values of healthy school children who live in households with and without tobacco smoke. Methods: PEF measurements were taken for 830 school children, from elementary schools in Nis and Laplje Selo. Mesurements were obtained with new peakflowmetars Vitalograf-normal range (EN 13826), 3 to 5 times. The higest values were taken for analysis. P < 0.05 was considered significant. Results: We considered PEF values for 830 healthy school children, 599 (72.17%) from households with tobacco smoke (ETS), and 231 (27.83%) without ETS. Exposure to parenteral smoking was associated with reduced PEF rates: 312.01 L/min (95% CI=301.38-322.65 L/min), for boys and 284.64 L/min (95% CI=275.73-293.55 L/min), for girls. PEF rates for children from households without ETS are 313.79 L/min (95% CI=295.63-331.93 L/min) for boys, and 302.0 L/min (95% CI=287.02- 316.98 L/min) for girls. PEF rates were significantly lower for girls from households with ETS (p<0.05). Boys, with and without ETS, had no statistically significant differences between their height, weight and age, so their PEF rates could be compared by their absolute values. For girls, this was not the case, and after age, height and weight adjustments their PEF rates showed no statistical significance (p= 0,346). Conclusions: Parental and household smoking were associated with decreased lung function in school age children. Although it's possible to reduce exposure to tobacco smoke in public places, it's important to inform parents about longterm impact of tobacco smoke on the health of their children.

Biliary pathology represents today one of the most common indication for surgery in abdominalnj surgery. Calculosis gallbladder is a serious pathological condition, that their frequency, severity and possible complications constitute a significant percentage of medical emergencies. Septic complications are the most important factor of morbidity and mortality in biliary surgery. In relation to the gender structure of M: F=160: 519 1 3.2 23.6%: 76.4% is female domination. The highest incidence of biliary diseases in this interval is 91 (13.4%) in 2006, and 75 (11.0%) of 2010 average incidence of 52 patients per year. The lowest incidence was 2002 g 6 (0.9%) patients. The youngest patient was females aged 12 years. The oldest patient who underwent surgery were female, with a 82 yr. The range is 82-12=70g. The average age of the patients was 51 years, with dominant females 76.4%. Cholecystitis chronice is present in 423 (62.3%), cholecystitis acuta 251 (37%). Cholelythiasa 666 98%. Acalculosa 13 (1.91%). Calculosis gallbladder was present in 666 (98.1%) cases. OP: Solitary holelithiasis, 149 (22.4%), multiple holelithiasis 517 (77.6%). The absence of cholelithiasis in biliary diseases was verified in 13 (1.91%) patients. Holecistit empyema was verified in 8 (1.18%) cases. The structure of the surgical findings shows that gallbladder represents the dominant place of infectious processes in the acute pathology of extrahepatic bile ducts. 436 (64.2%). Hydrops 47 (10.8%). Empyema 102 (23.4%). Acute complications related to the spread of infection from the gallbladder put the main biliary tree and free abdominal cavity were registered in 2 (0.46%). Abscessus subhepatis 11 (2.52%). Choledocholythiasis 6 (1.38%). Cholangitis ac 17 (3.9%). Neo vesicae felleae 7 (1.03%). From that polypus vesicae felleae 2 (0.4%), ca vesicae felleae 4 (0.59%). There hepatocholedoci 1 (1.15%). Meta and hepato 4 (0.59%). M: F = 2: second Icterus 8 (1.18%). The ratio of M: F = 7: 1. Incidenca baktibilije analyzed in the entire series was 57%. Microbiological analysis of samples identified teen bacterial species.

Frequent occurrence of dental caries and periodontal diseases, especially gingivitis, in school-aged children, is becoming one of the most important problems in oral pathology, although they all can be brought under control through health education and implementation of preventive and prophylactic measures. The aim of this study was to determine the incidence of dental caries and gingivitis in children, aged 12 years, attending primary schools in Kosovska Mitrovica, as an urban area, and schools in Gračanica and Laplje Selo, as rural areas. The study included 227 schoolchildren, aged 12 years, divided into two groups. One group, 129 of them, consisted of children from primary schools in Kosovska Mitrovica, as urban areas. The other group, 98 of them, consisted of children from primary schools in Gračanica and Laplje Selo, as rural areas. Klein-Palmer DMFT system (D-Decayed, M-Missing, F-filled) was used to estimate the prevalence of dental caries, while Silness-Löe plaque index, Löe-Silness gingival index and Muhlemann sulcus bleeding index were used to estimate the level of oral hygiene, gingival status and severity of gingival inflammation. The average number of permanent teeth with caries per respondent (DMFT) was 4.6 in total, for all children. The average value of DMFT in children from urban areas was 3.8, and 5.3 in children from rural areas. SiC Index was 7.9. The average value of the plaque index (PI) was 1.53±0.61, of the gingival index (GI)1.05±0.58 and of the bleeding index (BI) 0.64±0.59. The established state of oral health and periodontium in examined children points to the necessity of applying modern preventive and prophylactic measures in order to improve the oral health and increase the motivation for the overall health care.

The complexity of the open bite is attributed to the combination of the skeletal, dental and soft tissue elements. Depending on the etiology there are different approaches in their solution from conventional to surgical orthodontic treatment. In boys, aged 15 years, was found anterior open bite. After diagnostic procedures and growth assessment, the Demon nonsurgical orthodontic treatment technique was performed. The use of mild force, low friction and early use of intraoral elastics, arterior vertikal and class II in the area of the side teeth, have enabled us to take advantage of favorable growth type maxillofacial complex by which we have achieved a satisfactory therapeutic effect and close the open bite.

Injury of the deltoid ligament as a component of the lateral malleolus fractures is caused by the fact rotational forces during the support. The aim of this research is to examine the functional results of the patient who had undergone suture of the deltoid ligament and osteosynthesis of fracture of the lateral malleolus. In a retrospective study the analysis included a series of 45 patients.The diagnosis of rupture of the deltoid ligament is made based on physical findings islands and tenderness in the region of the deltoid ligament and roentgenographic confirmation width of the medial joint space > 4 mm. There is a high degree of correlation with the 25 (55.55%) patients between excellent functional outcomes of treatment calculated by Gregory[11] score and great roentgenographic findings by Konrath score[12]. The total clinical scores of subjective and objective clinical assessment by Gregory of a sample of patients, characterized by an excellent, even with the 40 (88.89%) patients. In the literature there is no agreement on the method of treatment of the deltoid ligament rupture associated with fractures of the lateral malleolus. Based on theoretical considerations, a number of authors advocate surgical treatment discontinued deltoid ligament. In our series, using suture of the deltoid ligament and osteosynthesis of the lateral malleolus, the best results are obtained with the PAB fracture, lower percentages of excellent results is with the SER fractures. The worst result was obtained with the PER type fracture. Anatomical and functional integrity of all parts of the talocrural joint that allows harmony of movement and stability is achieved with osteosynthesis of lateral malleolus and suture of the deltoid ligament.
