Ehlers Danlos syndrome type I with novel dental features.

The clinical, radiographic and histologic findings are described in two cases of Ehlers Danlos Syndrome Type I with novel dental features. Defective dentinogenesis principally affecting the mandibular incisors result in aplasia or hypoplasia of root development predisposing to localized periodontal disease. A striking radiographic appearance with a bulbous enlargement of the roots together with pulp stones is seen in other teeth. 'Giant channels' and vascular inclusions resembling 'intermediate cementum' are prominent within this area. No evidence of Type III procollagen or collagen was detected with indirect immunofluorescence. It is suggested that an inherited collagen abnormality in a component common to dentin, skin, ligament and tendon probably explains both EDS I and the dentin dysplasia.

[Incidence of Trichomonas vaginalis infection among girls from the Lódź population in the last 25-year period].

19,024 girls (aged: from 0 to 18) attending the Pediatric Gynaecology Outpatient Department and the Center for Treatment of Parasitic and Mycotic Diseases were examined. The diagnosis of infection with T. vaginalis was based on preparations using various methods and cultures on specific media, from vaginal content and urine. It was found that the frequency of T. vaginalis invasions in girls had lessened 2-6 times in different groups from 1960 till 1985 and the higher percent of T. vaginalis in girls over 10 years old had been observed than in younger ones. There exists the statistically significant correlation (P less than less than 0.02) between T. vaginalis invasions in girls and other persons from their environment (families).

[Analysis of the relations between selected symptoms of inflammation of the genital and urinary organs and invasion of Trichomonas vaginalis].

Data concerning 604 girls up 18 year old were analysed. On the basis clinical symptoms and results of culture of various biological materials on selected media--the monofocal Trichomonas infection concerning the most often vulva and vagina, rarely urethra or other regions of urinary organ as well as the multifocal Trichomonas infection, particularly complicated by mycosis were proved. It was found the convergence statistically significant (P less than or equal to 0.5) of the invasion of T. vaginalis with some symptoms of inflammation of genital and urinary organs; the highest values of Pearson-Bravais coefficient was obtained in Trichomonas infection of genital organs and vaginal discharges, pain of vulva and vagina, the picture of colpitis maculosa, but in the multifocal one also with itching and pain in urethra and dysuria. T. vaginalis without symptoms occurred very seldom in the girls.

[Horizontal osteotomy of the mandibular body with transfer of the inferior dental nerve].

In a patient with developmental facial asymmetry resulting from unilateral mandibular hyperplasia, irregular height of the mandibular body was strongly manifested on the affected side. Since a large portion of the inferior border of the mandible predicted to be cut off contained almost the whole of the lower alveolar nerve, transfer of the latter was employed. The nerve was surgically isolated along its course, and secured by being lifted while horizontal osteotomy of the mandibular body was performed. The nerve was accommodated in new groove created at a safe distance from the roots of the lower teeth. Postoperative healing was uneventful, but feeling in the region of lower lip was decreased during a few days immediately after surgery. The patient reexamined 18 months later demonstrated satisfactory esthetic and functional result with preserved feeling in the region supplied by the lower alveolar nerve.

[Mycoses of genital organs of girls - therapeutic problems (author's transl)].

The therapeutic effectiveness of poliene antibiotics, such as nystatin, polyfungin, and pimafucin, was comparatively analysed in the context of mycoses of the genital organs of girls in various periods of development. Early detection of fungi in genital organs, the oral cavity, rectum, and urethra is of great importance to mycosis treatment of children. Whenever antimycotic treatment is followed by recurrent outbreaks, all persons in the child's closer environment have to be examined at any rate.
