RESUMO

O câncer de cabeça e pescoço (CCP) refere-se ao grupo de tumores que atingem a laringe, cavidade nasal, nasofaringe, orofaringe, cavidade oral e glândulas salivares. A radioterapia no paciente com CCP representa uma terapia para manutenção do órgão, através da destruição das células neoplásicas malignas. O objetivo do presente estudo foi identificar estratégias radioterápicas aplicadas ao paciente com CCP e seus respectivos efeitos colaterais em cavidade oral, além de investigar as principais modalidades utilizadas nos sistemas de saúde do Brasil. Tratou-se de uma revisão narrativa da literatura com busca ativa das bases eletrônicas PUBMED, LILACS e SCIELO. Após todas as etapas de refinamento, um total de 58 artigos foram incluídos na presente revisão. A radioterapia possui papel de destaque no tratamento do CCP. No entanto, por não ser um método terapêutico com alta especificidade, resulta em efeitos adversos ao tratamento como mucosite oral, trismo e disfunção salivar, que findam por reduzir a qualidade de vida do paciente. Dentre as principais técnicas radioterapêuticas utilizadas no Brasil, a IMRT e VMAT caracterizam-se como as formas mais avançadas da terapia em 3D, proporcionando doses equivalentes para cada área da lesão tumoral, poupando áreas teciduais circunvizinhas que não necessitam de irradiação. Além da toxicidade reduzida, uma maior sobrevida pode ser observada em pacientes tratados com essas técnicas. Um dos maiores desafios atuais na radioterapia contra o CCP é a proteção de tecidos saudáveis. Nesse sentido, a IMRT e VMAT apresentam superioridade em relação às demais técnicas.

Head and neck cancer (CCP) refers to the group of tumors that affect the larynx, nasal cavity, nasopharynx, oropharynx, oral cavity and salivary glands. Radiotherapy in patients with CCP represents a therapy for organ maintenance, through the destruction of malignant neoplastic cells. The aim of this study was to identify radiotherapy strategies applied to patients with CCP and their respective side effects in the oral cavity, and to investigate the main modalities used in health systems in Brazil. It was a narrative review of the literature with active search of electronic databases PUBMED, LILACS and SCIELO. After all stages of refinement, a total of 58 articles were included in this review. Radiotherapy has a prominent role in the treatment of CCP. However, because it is not a therapeutic method with high specificity, it results in adverse effects to treatment such as oral mucositis, trismus and salivary dysfunction, which end up reducing the quality of life of the patient. Among the main radiotherapeutic techniques used in Brazil, IMRT and VMAT are characterized as the most advanced forms of 3D therapy, providing equivalent doses for each area of the tumor sparing surrounding tissue areas that do not require irradiation. In addition to reduced toxicity, greater survival can be observed in patients treated with these techniques. One of the biggest current challenges in radiation therapy against CCP is the protection of healthy tissues. In this sense, the IMRT and VMAT present superiority in relation to the other techniques.

RESUMO

A cavidade oral é afetada pelo caráter multissistêmico das consequências da Doença Renal Crônica (DRC) e estima-se que cerca de 90% destes pacientes têm sintomas orais. Alterações laboratoriais sanguíneas e salivares são frequentemente observadas e por isso, investigações sobre correlações clínico-laboratoriais são fundamentais para o manejo e tratamento dos pacientes. Neste estudo foi realizada uma revisão sistemática para identificar e avaliar as principais alterações laboratoriais no sangue e na saliva de pacientes portadores de DRC que apresentam manifestações orais. A busca bibliográfica incluiu artigos das bases de dados eletrônicas PubMed, Scopus, Biblioteca Virtual em Saúde, Web of Science, Embase e literatura cinzenta, incluindo estudos caso-controle, transversais e de coorte. A análise do risco de viés seguiu a abordagem QUADAS-2. PROSPERO CRD42022250533 é o registro dessa revisão. As principais alterações laboratoriais encontradas foram o aumento das concentrações sanguíneas e salivares de ureia, creatinina, fosfato e diminuição das concentrações de cálcio e da taxa de fluxo salivar. As concentrações dessas substâncias no sangue e na saliva e a TGF estavam diretamente correlacionadas. Foi observada existência da correlação entre o aparecimento das manifestações orais e as alterações laboratoriais, principalmente xerostomia, disgeusia e hálito urêmico. Em conclusão, a literatura tem revelado que as principais alterações laboratoriais encontradas são aquelas descritas comumente na rotina laboratorial, que as concentrações dessas substâncias no sangue e na saliva estão diretamente correlacionadas com a TFG, e existe correlação entre o aparecimento das manifestações orais e as alterações laboratoriais. Grandes oportunidades estão abertas para a investigação sobre de novos marcadores.

The oral cavity is affected by the multisystemic nature of the consequences of Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) and it is estimated that around 90% of these patients present oral symptoms. Blood and salivary laboratory changes are frequently observed and, therefore, investigations of clinical-laboratory correlations are essential for the management and treatment of these patients. This study was carried out as a systematic review to identify and evaluate the main laboratory changes in the blood and saliva of patients with CKD who present oral manifestations. The bibliographic search included articles from the electronic databases PubMed, Scopus, Virtual Health Library, Web of Science, Embase and gray literature, including case-control, cross-sectional and cohort studies. The risk of bias analysis advanced the QUADAS-2 approach. PROSPERO CRD42022250533 is the record of this review. The main laboratory changes found were an increase in blood and salivary concentrations of urea, creatinine, phosphate and a decrease in calcium concentrations and salivary flow. The concentrations of substances in blood and saliva and TGF were directly correlated. The existence of the manifestation was observed between the appearance of oral manifestations and laboratory changes, mainly xerostomia, dysgeusia and uremic breath. In conclusion, the literature revealed that the main laboratory changes found are those commonly described in laboratory routine, that the concentrations of these problems in blood and saliva are directly correlated with GFR, and there is a manifestation between the appearance of oral manifestations and laboratory changes. . Great opportunities are open for the investigation of new markers.

Sugerimos que adoptar un enfoque individualizado basado en la fortaleza para la evaluación de niños con afecciones médicas complejas ofrece la base más segura para la prestación de atención en pacientes con enfermedad cardiaca y asma. El objetivo de esta revisión es brindar una visión razonada de atención en el paciente comprometido sistémicamente, basados en protocolos internacionales, y una serie de pasos y modificaciones que deben ser consideradas al momento del manejo odontológico. Se realizó la búsqueda científica en bases digitales contemplando información en idiomas inglés y español, acerca del manejo del paciente dependiendo de su diagnóstico médico y sus complicaciones. Concluimos que el tratamiento dental de pacientes pediátricos con enfermedades sistémicas se puede llevar a cabo de manera eficiente en presencia de un equipo dental bien equipado y apoyo de los padres. Un dentista pediátrico juega un papel importante en el alivio de la ansiedad del niño, manteniendo una relación positiva y haciendo que los servicios de atención se conviertan en experiencias cómodas y libres de complicaciones para pacientes infantiles con enfermedades sistémicas de base, como cardiopatías y/o asma (AU)

This review provides a systematic approach to establishing safe, comprehensive, coordinated, and family-oriented dental care delivery for the child with medical complexities. We suggest that adopting an individualized, strength-based approach to evaluating children with complex medical conditions provides the surest basis for delivering care to heart disease and asthma patients. This review aims to provide a reasoned care approach for the patient with a systemic compromise based on international protocols and a series of steps and modifications that should be considered during dental management. A scientific search was conducted in digital databases, including information in English and Spanish, on managing patients according to their medical diagnosis and complications. We conclude that dental treatment of pediatric patients with systemic diseases can be carried out efficiently in the presence of a well-equipped dental team and parental support. A pediatric dentist plays a vital role in relieving the child's anxiety, maintaining a positive relationship, and making care services become comfortable and complication-free experiences for pediatric patients with underlying systemic diseases, such as heart disease and/or asthma (AU)

RESUMO

This study aimed to evaluate how different study designs influences the presence and characteristics of diagnosis of oral manifestations in patients with COVID-19. Methods: This study is a meta-search conducted with studies evaluating the relationship between patients with oral manifestations and COVID-19. A search was conducted in three databases (PubMed, Web of Science, and Scopus), using terms specific to COVID-19 and oral lesions, including only primary studies. Study selection was undertaken by two reviewers independently. A descriptive analysis was performed. Results: The results included 55 studies in the data synthesis analysis. Most of the studies were case reports and case series. Some of the studies did not relate a biological test to confirm COVID-19. The ulcer lesion and that clinical examination by specialists were the most reported lesion in case reports and case series studies, while taste alterations and patient self-report were more reported in observational studies. Conclusions: This review concluded that the oral lesions in patients with COVID-19 differ according to the study design. The lack of high-quality scientific evidence in the dental literature on COVID-19 makes the findings inconsistent by the lack of sample selection criteria, diagnostic criteria and classification of oral lesions

RESUMO

Objetivo: La sífilis es una enfermedad de transmisión sexual con una incidencia creciente a nivel mundial. En la sí- filis secundaria, las lesiones orales son frecuentes, siendo a veces la única manifestación. El objetivo de este artículo es presentar una serie de casos clínicos de sífilis con localización predominante o exclusivamente gingival, destacando las ca- racterísticas clínicas más relevantes para su diagnóstico. Casos clínicos: Esta serie de casos clínicos incluyó nueve casos de sífilis secundaria con manifestaciones gingi- vales. El diagnóstico se realizó mediante pruebas serológicas (VDRL, TPPA, FTA-ABS y MHA-TP), y se describieron le- siones tanto gingivales como extragingivales. En la encía se observó sífilis secundaria afectando principalmente la región anterior ­tanto superior como inferior­, presentándose pla- cas rojas o blancas. Algunos casos también presentaban le- siones en otros sitios intraorales, tenían síntomas como dolor o sensación de ardor, o presentaban enfermedad periodontal dependiente de placa. El diagnóstico diferencial de sífilis se- cundaria gingival con condiciones periodontales inespecíficas es fundamental para un diagnóstico adecuado. Por lo tanto, se debe considerar el diagnóstico de sífilis secundaria cuando se enfrentan casos gíngivo-periodontales atípicos en la práctica diaria (AU)

Aim: Syphilis is a sexually transmitted disease with growing incidence worldwide. In secondary syphilis, oral le- sions are common, sometimes being the only manifestation. Gingival features of syphilis are rare and usually present mul- tiple oral lesions. The aim of this article is to present a series of clinical cases of syphilis with predominantly or exclusively gingival localization, highlighting the most relevant clinical characteristics for its diagnosis. Clinical cases: This clinical case series included nine cases of secondary syphilis with gingival manifestations. The diagnosis was made using serological tests (VDRL, TPPA, FTA-ABS, and MHA-TP), and both gingival and extragingi- val lesions were described. Secondary syphilis was observed in the gum, mainly affecting the anterior region ­both up- per and lower­, depicting red or white plaques. Some cases also presented lesions in other intraoral sites, had symptoms such as pain or burning sensation, or showed plaque induced periodontal disease. The differential diagnosis of second- ary syphilis considering non-specific periodontal conditions with gingival involvement is essential for a proper diagnosis. Thus, the diagnosis of secondary syphilis should be consid- ered when dealing with atypical gingivo-periodontal cases in everyday practice (AU)

RESUMO

El síndrome de Cornelia de Lange (SCdL) es un trastorno genético poco frecuente y se atribuye principalmente a mutaciones en los genes NIPBL, SMC3 y SMC1A. Sus principales características clínicas son múltiples anomalías congénitas, dimorfismo facial, hirsutismo, hipertricosis, retraso psicomotor, discapacidad intelectual, restricción del crecimiento prenatal y postnatal, anomalías de manos y pies, así como malformaciones congénitas que afectan a distintos órganos. En pacientes con SCdL es necesario hacer hincapié en la higiene oral debido a la discapacidad intelectual que puede presentarse y asegurarse de que se realiza una adecuada valoración y saneamiento dental de forma periódica con el fin de prevenir enfermedades bucodentales. El objetivo de este reporte de caso es describir el manejo odontológico de un paciente de 10 años con SCdL y revisar las características clínicas y hallazgos radiológicos presentes en la cavidad oral (AU)

Cornelia de Lange syndrome (CdLS) is a rare genetic disorder and is principally attributed to mutations in the NIPBL, SMC3 and SMC1A genes. The main clinical characteristics are multiple congenital anomalies, facial dimorphism, hirsutism, hypertrichosis, psychomotor retardation, intellectual disability, prenatal and postnatal growth restriction, hand and foot anomalies, as well as congenital malformations affecting different organs. In patients with CDLS, it is necessary to focus on oral hygiene due to the intellectual disability that may be present and to ensure that adequate dental valuation and hygiene is routinely performed in order to prevent oral diseases. The aim of this case report is to describe the dental management of a 10-year-old patient with CDLS and review the clinical characteristics and radiological findings that are present in the oral cavity (AU)

RESUMO

A Doença de Parkinson (DP) consta de patologia neurodegenerativa, progressiva em que inexiste cura. A nível sistêmico evidenciam-se distúrbios motores, advindo da manifestação de degeneração dos neurônios e a nível odontológico e bucal averigua-se repercussões desfavoráveis que levam ao desenvolvimento de problemas com a execução do autocuidado dos enfermos com a sua higienização oral, que mostra-se dificultada. O objetivo do presente artigo foi evidenciar como procedem as manifestações bucais e a abordagem odontológica dos pacientes portadores de Doença de Parkinson. Realizou-se estudo de revisão bibliográfica com busca nas bases de dados: Google Acadêmico, LILACS e levantamento de estudos e artigos que tratavam acerca das manifestações bucais oriundas da Doença de Parkinson. Em âmbito odontológico existem algumas manifestações orais advindas do acometimento pela DP, tais como: xerostomia, disfagia, sialorreia, cárie dentária, acúmulo de biofilme dental e doença periodontal, entre outras. Deveria haver uma conduta odontológica com a execução de tratamentos preventivos nesses pacientes, entretanto o que ocorre é o feitio de procedimentos curativos e mais invasivos, que são adotados em decorrência do quadro insatisfatório de saúde oral apresentado. Concluiu-se que a figura do cirurgião dentista é essencial na equipe de atendimento multiprofissional para tratamento dos pacientes portadores da DP, uma vez que o mesmo atuará evitando a instalação de agravantes e a piora do quadro de saúde bucal e periodontal realizando os procedimentos odontológicos necessários.

Parkinson's Disease (PD) consists of a neurodegenerative, progressive pathology in which there is no cure. At the systemic level, motor disorders are evidenced, arising from the manifestation of neuronal degeneration and at the dental and oral level, unfavorable repercussions are verified that lead to the development of problems with the execution of self-care of the sick with their oral hygiene, which is shown to be difficulty. The objective of this article was to show how the oral manifestations and the dental approach of patients with Parkinson's Disease proceed. A bibliographic review study was carried out with a search in the Google Scholar, LILACS databases and a survey of studies and articles that dealt with the oral manifestations arising from Parkinson's Disease. In the dental field, there are some oral manifestations resulting from PD involvement, such as: xerostomia, dysphagia, drooling, dental caries, accumulation of dental biofilm and periodontal disease, among others. There should be a dental approach with the implementation of preventive treatments in these patients, however, what happens is the nature of curative and more invasive procedures, which are adopted as a result of the unsatisfactory picture of oral health presented. It was concluded that the figure of the dental surgeon is essential in the multidisciplinary care team for the treatment of patients with PD, since he will act to avoid the installation of aggravating factors and the worsening of the oral and periodontal health condition by performing the necessary dental procedures.

RESUMO

El síndrome de Ehlers-Danlos es una enfermedad heredita- ria, producida por mutaciones cromosómicas que pueden llegar a tener un comportamiento autosómico dominante, recesivo o ligado al cromosoma X. Se caracteriza por defectos en las enzi- mas encargadas de la estructura y síntesis de colágeno. En vista de los 20 tipos de colágeno que existen, este síndrome es extre- madamente heterogéneo tanto en su presentación clínica como en su progresión y evolución. Dentro de los signos y síntomas habituales encontramos la hiperlaxitud articular, hiperelastici- dad de la piel e hiperequimosis de los vasos sanguíneos. Con relación a las complicaciones que pueden presentar es- tos pacientes, encontramos dislocaciones articulares, fragilidad en la piel, dolor articular, ruptura de grandes vasos sanguíneos, dificultad en la cicatrización y, en consecuencia, mayor inci- dencia de procesos infecciosos y de cicatrices poco estéticas. Presenta una incidencia de 1 caso cada 2.500-5.000 na- cidos vivos. Por ello, es fundamental que el odontólogo se encuentre familiarizado con el manejo médico-dental de estos pacientes, a fin de estar preparado para brindarles un trata- miento adecuado y responder ante las posibles complicacio- nes que se pueden presentar. En esta revisión se emplearon resultados extraídos manual- mente de artículos, indexados en las bases de datos PUBMED y EBSCO, que respondían a la búsqueda de los términos Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, dental management y oral surgery. El objetivo fue describir el manejo médico-odontológico del paciente con síndrome de Ehlers-Danlos hasta la fecha (AU)

Ehlers-Danlos syndrome is a hereditary disease, produced by chromosomal mutations that can have an autosomal behavior, which can be dominant, recessive or X-linked. It is characterized by defects in the enzymes responsible for the structure and syn- thesis of collagen. In view of the 20 existent types of collagen, this syndrome is extremely heterogeneous in its clinical presentation, as well as in its progression and evolution. Within the usual signs and symptoms, we find joint hyperlaxity, skin hyperelasticity and hyper-ecchymosis of the blood vessels. Regarding the complications that these patients can pres- ent, we find joint dislocations, skin fragility, joint pain, rupture of large blood vessels, difficulty in healing and, consequently, a higher incidence of infectious processes and unsightly scars. It presents an incidence of 1 case every 2.500-5.000 live births. Therefore, it is essential that the dentist is familiar with the medical-dental management of these patients, in order to be prepared to provide them with adequate treatment and re- spond to possible complications that may arise. In this review, results were manually extracted from ar- ticles, indexed in the PUBMED and EBSCO databases, that respond to the search for the terms Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, dental management and oral surgery. The aim was describing the medical-dental management of patients with Ehlers-Dan- los syndrome to date (AU)

RESUMO

Introdução: durante a permanência em Unidades de Terapia Intensiva (UTIs), os pacientes internados apresentam maior vulnerabilidade a alterações na cavidade oral decorrentes do uso de equipamentos de respiração artificial e do estado imunocomprometido em que se encontram. Objetivo: identificar as principais manifestações bucais em pacientes internados em uma UTI bem como verificar o conhecimento dos profissionais responsáveis pela higienização bucal. Metodologia: trata-se de um estudo quantitativo descritivo com delineamento transversal. Os dados foram obtidos nos prontuários médicos dos pacientes e através de um exame clínico intraoral. Para os profissionais responsáveis pela higiene bucal, foi utilizado um questionário. As análises foram realizadas no programa SPSS versão 21.0 de forma descritiva. Resultados: as manifestações bucais com maior incidência foram saburra lingual, biofilme dentário, candidíase, devido a qualidade da higiene bucal prestada e a baixa imunidade. Os achados bucais e sistêmicos relacionados aos pacientes com maior tempo de internação foram ressecamento labial, queilite angular, língua despapilada, candidíase e pneumonia. Todos os profissionais responsáveis pela higienização bucal dos pacientes tinham formação técnica em enfermagem e desconheciam alterações importantes como biofilme dentário e pneumonia nosocomial. Conclusão: os dados deste estudo permitem concluir que apesar da constância com que é realizada a higienização bucal, verifica-se alta frequência de lesões bucais nos pacientes críticos da UTI. Evidenciando o papel da assistência da higienização bucal de qualidade, destacando a importância da atuação do cirurgião dentista em equipes multiprofissionais, visto que o risco de focos infecciosos bucais pode contribuir para o agravo e piora do quadro clínico dos pacientes.

Introduction: during the stay in Intensive Care Units (ICUs), hospitalized patients are more vulnerable to changes in the oral cavity resulting from the use of artificial respiration equipment and the immunocompromised state in which they are found. Objective: to identify the main oral manifestations in patients admitted to an ICU, as well as to verify the knowledge of professionals responsible for oral hygiene. Methodology: this is a descriptive quantitative study with cross-sectional design. Data were obtained from the patient's medical records and through an intraoral clinical examination. For professionals responsible for oral hygiene, a questionnaire was used. The analyses were performed in the SPSS version 21.0 program in a descriptive way. Results: the oral manifestations with the highest incidence were tongue coating, dental biofilm, candidiasis, due to the quality of oral hygiene provided and low immunity. Oral and systemic findings related to patients with longer hospital stays were lip dryness, angular cheilitis, depapilated tongue, candidiasis and pneumonia. All professionals responsible for oral hygiene of patients had technical training in nursing and were unaware of important alterations such as dental biofilm and nosocomial pneumonia. Conclusion: the data from this study allow us to conclude that despite the constancy with which oral hygiene is performed, there is a high frequency of oral lesions in critical ICU patients. Evidencing the role of quality oral hygiene assistance, highlighting the importance of the dentist's role in multidisciplinary teams, since the risk of oral infectious foci can contribute to the aggravation and worsening of the clinical condition of patients.

RESUMO

Los trastornos del desarrollo son aquellos padecimientos que se manifiestan por defectos en la embriogénesis de la región afectada. La cara del ser humano comienza su formación alrededor de la cuarta semana de vida intrauterina y se manifiesta gracias a la fusión de cinco prominencias: dos pares conocidas como maxilar y mandibular, y una impar conocida como frontonasal. Cuando esta fusión no se lleva a cabo de una forma óptima, aparecen numerosas alteraciones del desarrollo como el labio y paladar hendido, y la displasia frontonasal. La displasia frontonasal produce frecuentemente afecciones oculares, nasales y orales. Dentro de las manifestaciones orales destacan una forma atípica de hendidura labial o palatina, afecciones dentales y alteraciones en el crecimiento de la cara. Dada la gran relación que este padecimiento tiene con la cavidad oral resulta importante que el odontólogo conozca la etiología y las características clínicas de este trastorno (AU)

Developmental disorders are those conditions that are manifested by defects in the embryogenesis of the affected region. The human face begins its formation around the fourth week of intrauterine life and is manifested thanks to the fusion of five prominences: two pairs known as maxillary and mandibular and odd one known as frontonasal. When this fusion is not carried out in an optimal way, numerous developmental alterations appear, such as cleft lip and palate and frontonasal dysplasia. Frontonasal dysplasia frequently produces ocular, nasal and oral affections. Among the oral manifestations, and atypical form of clef lip and/or palate, dental affections and alterations in the growth of the face stand out. Given the great relationship that this condition has with the oral cavity, it is important for the dentist to know the etiology and clinical characteristics of this disorder (AU)
