AbstractObjectiveTo investigate the value of narrow-band imaging training for differentiating between benign and malignant vocal fold leukoplakia.MethodThirty cases of vocal fold leukoplakia were selected.ResultsNarrow-band imaging endoscopy training had a significant positive effect on the specificity of the differential diagnosis of vocal fold leukoplakia. In addition, the consistency of diagnostic typing of vocal fold leukoplakia by narrow-band imaging improved to ‘moderate agreement’ following the combination of types I and II and the combination of types IV, V and VI in the typing of vocal fold leukoplakia.ConclusionThe narrow-band imaging training course may improve the ability of laryngologists to diagnose vocal fold leukoplakia. The new endoscopic diagnostic classification by narrow-band imaging needs to be further simplified to facilitate clinical application.

Abstract:

Abstract Hairy tongue is a benign pathology, characterized clinically by hyperkeratinized plaques on the dorsal surface of the tongue, hairlike, whose coloration ranges from unpigment, whitish, yellowish, green, brown to black. Diagnosis is clinical, and, in cases of whitish plaques, it may be difficult to differentiate between oral hairy leukoplakia, potentially malignant leukoplakia or squamous cell carcinoma. Thus, widefield optical fluorescence complementary examination may allow a better visualization of the local hairlike pattern of hyperkeratinization, typical of the hairy tongue, facilitating the diagnosis. In this work, a 57-year-old man was referred to the Dental Specialties Department of the Divinópolis Health Department (MG, Brazil) by a general dental practitioner, aiming a differential diagnosis of possible malignant lesion on the dorsal tongue surface. The complementary examination by wide-field optical fluorescence was performed. For this, it was employed a device with high-power light-emitting diode emitting light centered at a wavelength of (400±10) nm and maximum irradiance of (0.040±0.008) W/cm2 was used for fluorescence visualization. Fluorescence images showed projections of hairlike appearance in tongue dorsal surface with no aspects of malignancy. Hairlike appearance is the principal feature of hairy tongue. In this way, the final diagnosis was established. In conclusion, in this case, the use of widefield optical fluorescence in oral diagnostic routine provided a differential diagnosis, with no need of an incisional biopsy.

Abstract:

Introduction Leukoplakia (LKP) is defined as a white patch or plaque on the mucosa of oral cavity, vulva, vagina etc., which cannot be removed and cannot be clinically or microscopically explained by presence of a disease. LKP is included in the group of lesions with malignant potential. Microscopic characteristics Basic microscopic characteristics of oral LKP include hyperkeratosis of ortho- or parakeratotic type and acanthosis of the epithelium, with various degrees of chronic inflammatory infiltrates in lamina propria. Also, various degrees of epithelial dysplasia may occur. Some of the most important microscopic characteristics of dysplasia are: loss of polarity of basal cells, increased nuclear cytoplasmic ratio, irregular epithelial stratification, increased number of abnormal mitotic figures and their presence in the superficial epithelium, cellular and nuclear pleomorphism, keratinization of single cell groups. Malignant potential LKP is the most common oral mucosal lesion (evident in 3% of adults). At the same time, up to 85% of all precancerous lesions are manifested as LKP. Overall malignant potential of LKP does not exceed 4%, but some authors found that even 16% LKP with some degree of dysplasia, have a potential to transform to carcinoma. Microscopic differential diagnosis The most important differential diagnostic criteria are listed for lesions with similar microscopic appearance. Conclusion Nowdays LKP is diagnosed more frequently than before, probable due to a better patients' education and dentists' caution, but not due to real increase in incidence.

Abstract:

Oral lichen planus (OLP) is included in the category of potentially malignant diseases. Benign processes are differentiated from malignant ones by the nature of cell proliferative activity. The aim of the present study was the comparative study of proliferative activity in OLP and leuk oplakia cells, as well as the cells of oral squamous cell carcinoma.Materials and methods. Biopsy specimens from 16 patients with OPL, 13 with leukoplakia, and 7 with oral squamous cell carcinoma were investigated. Immunohistochemical studies were performed using Ki67 monoclonal antibodies.Results. The average Ki67 index in OPL cells was 9.3 ± 2.3 %. Proliferating cells were located exclusively in the basal epidermis layer. In leukoplakia cells, the average Ki67 index was 20.5 ± 6.1 %; the proliferating cells were located in the basal layer and lower parts of the spinous (suprabasal) layer of the epidermis. In squamous cell carcinoma, the average Ki67 index was 57.4 ± 2.04 %. Proliferating cells were located diffusely over all cell complexes from the lower to the highest layers of the epidermis. Differences in the proliferation level were significant for the leukoplakia/OPL pair (p = 0.003) and squamous cell carcinoma/OPL pair (p < 0.001), while for squamous cell carcinoma/leukoplakia pair the difference was not significant (p = 0.211).Conclusion. The differences in the proliferation level and in the nature of the proliferating cell distributionin through the epidermis can be applied in the differential diagnosis of OPL and leuk oplakia.

Abstract:

Since August 1989, we have seen 4 patients with leukoplakia of the renal pelvis associated with a longstanding renal stone. In 2 of them, excretory or retrograde pyelography revealed multiple filling defects in the left renal pelvis as well as a renal stone, although urine cytological examination was negative. One of the other 2 patients underwent extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL) for the renal stone, but this was not followed by the passage of stone fragments. The renal stone in the remaining patient was associated with staghorn calculi. For stone extraction as well as endoscopic evaluation of the intrapelvic lesion, percutaneous nephroscopy was performed. A small to large amount of tissue-like white debris in sheets characteristic of leukoplakia was found in the renal pelvis with stones embedded in it and was removed directly by forceps or suction and then by irrigating with saline. We propose that 1) the endourological approach should be recommended for patients with renal pelvic lesions associated with longstanding renal stones or for patients who show difficulty in passing stone fragments after ESWL and 2) this entity of leukoplakia should be kept in mind for the differential diagnosis of renal pelvic lesions associated with renal stones.

Abstract:

This report describes the case of a 56-year-old man who presented with blurry vision, increased intraocular pressure, and conjunctival injection after posterior chamber intraocular lens implantation. Initially post-operative endophalmitis and foreign body inflammation were considered as differential diagnoses, but after further examination pan-uveitis was diagnosed. Uveitis is an ocular finding that may indicate several diseases, one of which is Behçet’s Disease. During the interview, the patient mentioned a history of apthous ulcers and genital ulcers which then lead to the clinical diagnosis of Behçet’s Disease. This report emphasizes that Behçet’s Disease is rare in Caucasians. Therefore, is frequently misdiagnosed in North America due to variable presentations and by not exploring the option when analyzing differential diagnoses. Early diagnosis and intervention will prevent the development of blindness and fatality due to complications of the disease.

Abstract:

A differential diagnosis between head injury and depression is critical to ensure proper treatment and appropriate interventions. Knowledge about this can only aid counseling psychologists' work with this population and, identifying a measure that can assist in this process is essential. The purpose of this study is to measure the utility of the Dean — Woodcock Neuropsychological Assessment System (D-WNAS) in distinguishing individuals with head injury from those who have a primary diagnosis of depression, and general neurological impairment. Participants included 433 adults (222 males, 211 females) between the ages 20-55 years of age (mean = 35.3 years, SD = 10.97 years) from the Midwestern United States. During the individual's treatment in the neuropsychological laboratory, each person was administered the following: the Dean-Woodcock Structured Interview (Dean & Woodcock, 1999), mental status exam, the Woodcock Johnson — Revised Tests of Cognitive Ability (WJ-R COG; Woodcock & Johnson, 1989b), the Woodcock Johnson — Revised Tests of Achievement (WJ-R ACH; Woodcock & Johnson, 1989a), and the Dean-Woodcock Sensory Motor Battery (DWSMB; Dean & Woodcock, 1999). This study indicates that responses to D-WNAS can be used to reliably classify adults into groups of depression, head injury, and general neuropsychological impairment. In particular, responses to the D-WSMB portion of the D-WNAS can be used to reliably classify adults into groups of depression, head injury, and general neuropsychological impairment. Classification results revealed that the original grouped cases were classified with 62.6 % (p < .001) accuracy and with 73.2% overall accuracy when the head injury and general neurological impairment groups were combined and compared to depression and normative groups. The WJ-R COG and WJ-R ACH were not as reliable as the D-WSMB at predicting group membership.<br>Department of Counseling Psychology and Guidance Services

Abstract:

Projeto de Pós-Graduação/Dissertação apresentado à Universidade Fernando Pessoa como parte dos requisitos para obtenção do grau de Mestre em Medicina Dentária<br>Embora a sua incidência seja variada, o cancro da cabeça e do pescoço é responsável por aproximadamente 350 000 mortes por ano em todo o mundo, sendo uma grande preocupação para a saúde pública. Estes cancros podem ser precedidos por lesões potencialmente malignas, entre as quais se insere a leucoplasia. A leucoplasia oral foi definida pela OMS como “uma lesão predominantemente branca da mucosa oral que não pode ser caracterizada como qualquer outra lesão definível” (Pindborg et al., 1997; Van der Waal & Axéll, 2002). Há um tipo de leucoplasia, denominada leucoplasia proliferativa verrucosa (LPV) cujo aspecto clínico inicial é caracterizado pela presença duma lesão branca, homogénea, aparentemente inócua, que desenvolve áreas eritematosas, superfície verrucosa, comportamento agressivo e envolvimento multifocal com o passar do tempo. Por um lado, este tipo de leucoplasia tem características especiais, tais como a elevada taxa de malignização, que pode atingir 70% dos casos e por outro lado, a elevada taxa de recidiva. O problema quanto ao diagnóstico destas lesões é que normalmente já é feito tardiamente, numa fase em que as lesões já evoluíram, de forma que o prognóstico se torna menos favorável. Embora haja tratamento para a LPV, ainda nenhum conseguiu reduzir as recorrências. Desta forma, considera-se fundamental o diagnóstico precoce para assim identificar pacientes de risco. Although its incidence is not precise, the head and neck cancer is responsible for 350 000 deaths aproximately, per year all around the world, which is a huge concern for public health. These cancers can be preceeded by lesions highly malignant in which leukoplakia is inserted. The oral leukoplakia was defined by OMS as being “a mainly white lesion of the oral mucosa that can not be defined as any other lesion.” There is a type of leukoplakia, called proliferative verrucous (PVL) which at first clinical approach, presents a white homogeneous lesion, apparently innoffensive that develops erythematous and verrucous areas, aggressive behaviour along the time. On one hand, this type of leukoplakia has special characteristics such as high malignancy rate, which can reach 70% of cases and on the other hand, the high recurrence rate. As far as it concerns the diagnostic problem of these lesions is that usually done very late, in a stage in which the lesions have already developed in such a way that the prognostic is less favourable. Nevertheless there is treatment for PVL, none was able to have complete success. In this way, it is crucial a fast growing diagnosis in order to identify the patients at risk.

Abstract:

This study examined differences in scoring patterns among those diagnosed with Alzheimer's dementia and vascular dementia on the clock-drawing test. Archival clock drawing data was retrieved on 279 patients presenting at a county hospital-based memory clinic. Analysis of drawings was based on frequency of qualitative errors, as well as an overall quantitative score. Mean comparisons found those patients with Alzheimer's dementia to perform worse on both quantitative and qualitative scoring measures. However, Pearson's chi-squared test revealed a significantly higher rate of spacing errors among subjects with vascular dementia. Such lends support to my hypothesis that impaired executive functioning in vascular dementia patients would lead to poor qualitative performance. Logistic regression found significant predictive ability for the qualitative criteria in diagnosis (χ2 = 25.49, p < .001), particularly the rate of omission (z = 8.96, p = .003) and addition errors (z = 7.58, p = .006). Such findings hold important implications for the use of qualitative criteria in cognitive screening assessments.
