PROSTHETIC REHABILITATION MALOCCLUSION CLASS III- CASE REPORT

Treatment, rehabilitation and aesthetics should be the main tasks of modern dentistry. Adequate prosthetic therapy and rehabilitation may be conditioned by different factors. The paper describes prosthetic rehabilitation of a patient, 55 years old woman, with abnormalities in the vertical dimension of occlusion and malocclusion of the third class, and all in order to return of aesthetics and the function of stomatognathic system. The patient came to the clinic due to disturbed aesthetics and function, where was achieved the appropriate amount of bite along with satisfactory aesthetics and functional results due to a combination of fixed and partial dentures. Two metal-ceramic bridges consisted of 13 pieces were built in the upper jaw, and 8 teeth mobile partial denture in lower jaw, thus resulting in satisfactory requirements set to re-establish aesthetics and function of stomatognathic system.

ACUTE BLEEDING IN GASTROINTESTINAL STROMAL TUMOR OF THE OESOPHAGUS - CASE REPORT

Gastrointestinal stromal tumors are the most common mesenchymal tumors of the gastrointestinal tract. Anatomic locations, in decreasing, are: stomach (60%), small intestine (30%), colon and rectum (5%), oesophagus (5%). Histogenesis is still unclear, criteria of malignancies are not adapted, biological behavior in not known, and the diagnosis and prognosis are questionaly. Although usually asymptomatic, large gastrointestinal stromal tumor may present with repeated bleeding. Most often diagnosis in mode during the explorative laparotomy and postoperative immunohistochemical analysis of specimen. In this paper we have analized patients with gastrointestinal stromal tumors of the oesophagus. The patient preoperatively diagnosed submucosal tumor of the esophagus presented with repeated gastrointestinal bleeding. After the resuscitation, we performed total gastrectomy. The immunohistochemical analysis proved benign GIST. Surgical resection is a treatment of choice gastrointestinal stromal tumors presented with gastrointestinal bleeding.

SCORPIONISM IN MONTENEGRO: A REPORT OF THREE CASES

Aim: There is a few data in the literature on the medical significance of Mesobuthus gibbosus whose sting is considered potentially hazardous for human health. In this case two patients in the age of 16 and 25 with diagnosed scorpionism Mesobuthus gibbosus are described.Here is the example of woman 49 years old who had scorpionism, Euscorpius italicus. Case report: The stings by Mesobuthus gibbosus in both cases occurred during the construction work done by tourists. The following general symptomes were noticed: excitement, pulsating pains, muscle cramps in legs, pallor and profuse sweating. Local symptoms were: paresthesis, bruised skin, erythematous swelling with a red spot in the centre.After two years one patient had occasional muscle twitching, extension of superficial vein and pain on her injured leg. Sting by Euscorpius italicus happened in a bathroom while doing her physiological needs. The local symptoms were: swelling, redness and pain. The general symptoms were: numbness of a neck, intensive salivation and nausea. The symptomatic therapy was implemented in all three cases and was successful.

COMPLICATIONS AT LIVER AND SPLEEN WITH INFECTIOUS MONONUCLEOSIS

Epstein-Barrov virus (EBV) is a cause of heterophile antibody positive infectious mononucleosis (IM),which is characterized by fever, sore throat, limfadenopatiom and atypical limfocitozom. IM is mainly a self-limited disease. Complications of the central nervous system, hepatitis (which can be fulminant), (splenomegalia, obstruction of the upper respiratory tract with bacterial can sometimes be deadly.

METABOLISM AND INHALED ANESTHETIC ELIMINATION

In this review paper, metabolism of most used inhaled halogenated anesthetics (halothane, enflurane, isoflurane, desulfurane and sevoflurane) is shown Only part of the anesthetics is metabolized, while the remainder is eliminated unchanged. They are metabolized by mixed function oxidases (reductive or oxidative pathways).

EPIDEMIC OF CANCER DISEASES OF WOMEN GENITAL SYSTEMS IN ENCLAVE OF CENTRAL KOSOVO

Cancer diseases of female genital system emerge as a result of continues influence of risk factors and heritage base. Commonly accepted risk factors are viruses, sexual intercourses without protection, early sexual relations- where the contact in the period under age 18 is highly risk, smoking (consumption of tobacco) and promiscuities males. Beside mentioned risk factors, we are exploring whether the life conditions and chronically stress are specific risk factors for isolated community. Serbian community in area of central Kosovo counts around 10.000 women in reproductive and menopausal stage. In the period of last 10 years, this specific community was exposed to the aftermaths of Nato aggression in 1999, meaning bombardment with uranium ammunition, poor conditions, refugee exile and return, chronically stress, period without adequate health protection and permanent feeling of life in hostile environment. The results were catastrophic : 5 invasive carcinomas of cervix in female in postmenopausal (56, 71, 50, 76, 54, years of age), 1 squamocellulare carcinoma of vagina (76 years of age) and one squamocellulare carcinoma of vulvae (57 years of age), both in postmenopausal period. In reproductive stage in 3 female H SIL was diagnosed (36, 42, 31 years of age). In three cases, as result of explorative curettage adeno cancer of endometrium was diagnosed (72, 66, 64 years of age).

CLINICAL ASPECT OF POLYTRAUMA AND ABDOMINAL TREATMENT IN CENTRAL REGION OF KOSOVO

Objective: To study the clinical profile of patients admitted with polytrauma over a five year period in a general hospital and review the management of abdominal trauma in them. Material and Methods: Medical records of 92 patients were studied retrospectively. The clinical presentation with details of injuries, relevant investigations done and the operative findings were analyzed. Results: Polytrauma was significantnly more common in males than females (P<0.001) and more so in the young age, between 20 and 29 years of age ( P<0.01). Road Traffic Accidents were the predominant cause followed by falls. Surgical operative management was necessary in 38 patients (41%) with abdominal trauma. Overall mortalitety was 4%, that for admitted patients 1% and post-operative mortality 3%. Conclusion: The clinical profile of polytrauma and the management of abdominal trauma in a general hospital are presented. The need for updating the national trauma registry with uniformity in reporting polytrauma in Serbia.

GROWTH HORMONE: OF THERAPY TO DOPING

Because of it’s anabolic and lipolytic effects and with the beginnings of the production of recombinant growth hormone for the treatment of many congenital diseases began and growth hormone abuse in sport. His contributions to enhancing the physical performances of athletes are debatable, and there are many side effects. Detection of growth hormone use as doping agents is impossible by standard means of doping because of the identity of its recombinant and natural forms. There are various tests measuring its isoforms and collagen peptide, while the use of carbon isotope is still under investigation. Efficient detection tests, the use of "athlete passport" and education of athletes, are good way to prevent misuse of growth hormone.

POSSIBILITIES OF TREATMENT IMPACTED CANINES - Case report

Introduction: Most permanent teeth erupt and establish proper occlusion. In some cases, the permanent teeth have a problem in the eruption and remain impacted in bone.There are two possibilities. 1. Extraction of impacted tooth and its replacement implant or a prosthetic replacement, 2. Surgical release of the impacted teeth and orthodontic traction in the dental arch. The time of treatment, type of surgery release impacted teeth, orthodontic techniques and possible problems during treatment, depending on the type of the impacted tooth and its location. Case report: Clinical examination 14-year-old patients concluded the lack of maxillary canine teeth in the dental arch. Panoramic image showed bilateral canine impaction in the upper jaw. The analysis of X-ray image was recorded axial and in the middle alveolar position of both the impacted tooth. This is why we chose the of closed eruption method. Discussion: Impacted maxillary canines, the middle alveolar ridge treated by closed eruption, except for a slight increase in clinical crown of the tooth does not show other changes deteriorate.
