RESUMO
Comunicamos el caso de una mujer de 63 años de edad, que desarrolló lesiones compatibles con un síndrome de Sweet, localizadas en el miembro sometido a linfadenectomía e irradiación, debido a una neoplasia maligna neural. Efectuamos comentarios del caso y los comparamos con la bibliografía publicada.

RESUMO
The nutritional status of a group of patients with epidemic neuropathy (EN) was reevaluated after a one-year follow-up to observe the changes occurred and to assess their relationship with the individual clinical evolution. 71 patients (40 men and 31 women) were examined. 28 had optic epidemic neuropathy and 43 mixed epidemic neuropathy. Vitamins thiamine, niacin, A and E were determined and the values were compared with those of risk 21 days later. There was an improvement of these indicators after 21 days as a response to the treatment, and an increase one year later of the percentage of individuals deficient in or situated at the margin of thiamine and niacin, which reflects a nutritional unbalance without an apparent association with the clinical evolution that showed a trend towards the recovery of the patients. This disassociation between the clinics and the nutritional and vitamin status suggest that the pathogeny of the EN may be connected with non-nutritional factors. The deficiency found in the nutritional vitamin state could anticipate a worsening of the clinical picture and/or the appearance of clinical manifestations corresponding to deficiency diseases.

La importancia fisiologica de la hiperlipidemia del embarazo no ha sido completamente explicada. No hay evidencias de un incremento en la incidencia de enfermedades coronarias durante la gestacion.En este estudio se describen los cambios en las concentraciones de colesterol, trigliceridos y fosfolipidos sericos en 77 gestantes en los tres trimestres. Se observo incremento en todas las fracciones lipidicas durante el embarazo; el incremento de colesterol fue mayor del primero al segundo trimestre mientras el de trigliceridos alcanzo su valor mas alto, del segundo al tercero. Se encontro una correlacion negativa (r= -0,49; p < 0,001) entre el colesterol inicial y el incremento del mismo durante el embarazo, lo que indica que aquellas mujeres que comenzaron con niveles mas altos tuvieron incrementos menores
