Abstract

Background and purpose: Malta fever is an infectious disease caused by brucella bacteria in humen and animals and it is one of the endemic diseases in Ïran which can causes different clinical manifestations and sever complications like meningitis, endocarditis, nephritis and pancytopenia specially in children. Çansidering the incidence of malta fever in Ïran, specially in our region, we performed this study in children under 12 years of age on the bases of clinical findings, methods of laboratory findings and appopriate line of treatment.
Materials and methods: This case series descriptive study was conducted on the bases of data collected from 100 admitted patients with positive clinical sign,and specific blood culture or positive serological tests in the form of census from Tehran children medical center and Âmirkola children hospital in babol.
Results: 93% of the patients had 10 years old of age or less. The male to female ratio was1.6. Fever & knee pain was seen in 97% and 72% of them respectively. 56% noted a history of dairy products usage. ËSR was less than 50 unit in 96%. Ât last 96% of the patients improved by therapeutic regimen of cotrimoxazole(6wks) and Gentamicin (2wk).
Çonclusion: Âccording to our results, the disease is common under 10 year-old and is seen in the boys more than the girls. Fever & knee pain are of the most common clinical manifestations. More than half of the patients noted the history of dairy products usage. So Malta fever have to be considered as a differential diagnosis for the patients with these manifestations and low ËSR rate. Âny way,the patients had a good respons to cotrimoxazol and gentamicin regimen

Abstract

Background and Purpose: The clinical and epidemiologic features of Kawasaki disease (KD) suggest an infectious etiology however, the agent(s) remain unknown. Our purpose was to isolate the causative bacterial gene from peripheral blood leukocytes of patients with acute KD, by Universal polymerase chain reaction (UPCR), in Tehran Children’s Medical Center.
Materials and Methods: Universal polymerase chain reaction (UPCR) assay was used to amplify the bacterial 16S ribosomal RNA gene (rDNA).
Results: Forty three (28 boys and 15 girls) were diagnosed with acute Kawasaki disease included in this study. The median age at diagnosis was 3.5 years (range: 0.5 –9 years). Twenty Nine (29) cases had typical KD criteria and 14 patients had atypical KD at diagnosis. Two of the 43 KD patients were positive for the Universal PCR assay for 16S rRNA, prior to intravenous g-globulin therapy (IVGT), while all specimens were negative by conventional blood culture. In our study, there was fever in 100%, conjunctivitis in 62.7%, rash in 83.72%, oral mucosal changes in 76.74%, peripheral changes in 37.20%, and cervical lymphadenopathy in 39.53% cases.
Conclusion: The 16S rDNA sequence was positive in 4.65% of acute KD patients this data shows that an infectious KD agent is traced in peripheral leukocytes. The question remains as to what true frequency of the16S rDNA sequence in KD is.

Abstract

Background and purpose: Intraoral soft tissue lesions of traumatic-origin and their clinical similarities to neoplastic lesions are of great importance. This study was performed to determine the frequency of these lesions in a population from northern Iran. Materials and methods: This retrospective study was done using existing patient dental records from two referral pathology department for oral lesions in Babol University of Medical Sciences. Patients' demographic criteria, location and characteristics of trauma-related lesions with clinical and histopathological diagnosis were obtained. Results: The subjects were 185 (41.5%) male and 261 (58.5%) female and the mean age of patients was 36.82 ± 0.9 years. Four hundred and forty-six cases associated with trauma were found. They were all created in soft tissues and the most common locations of lesions were gingiva (45.3%) and lip (24.9%). The most prevalent lesion was pyogenic granuloma (25.6%). The mean age of patients with frictional keratosis and epulis fissuratum were higher (57.76 ± 9.89 and 56.22 ± 13.24, respectively), while the mean age of patients affected by mucocele was the lowest (22.98 ± 13.4). Sixty two cases of lesions (14.4%) were seen in people <15 years of age. The most common sites of involvement in this population were the lips and gums with similar rate of incidence and the most prevalent lesion was mucocele. The concordance between histopathological and clinical diagnosis was seen in 54.7% of the cases. Conclusion: Intraoral soft tissue lesions of traumatic-origin have a relatively high prevalence in the oral cavity -probably due to more contact with local stimulus factors- and in the female population. This study found valuable epidemiological evidence that signifies the importance of such lesions in oral diseases.

Abstract

Testicular cancer allocate for only 1% of all male cancers, that 1-2% of them, would be familial. Family history of testicular cancer will be major risk factor. In this study, noticing the fact that familial testicular cancers are rare, we introduce cases of familiar testicular cancer. The first case was a 39-years-old man that came with abdominal enlargement, pain, and painless palpable masses in right testis. Serum tumor markers showed alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) as 373 IU/ml and ß-human chorionic gonadotropin (ßHCG) as 216 IU/ml. The second case (his brother) was a 35-years-old man came to clinic with painless right testis enlargement. Serum tumor markers were normal. This patient underwent radical orchidectomy. Pathology reported classic seminoma limited to tunica vaginalis. Next, both of patients underwent chemotherapies. This study reveals that in familiar testicular cancer, one of the most important causes will be hereditary factors. For patients' more survival and comfortability, early diagnosis via physical examination, serum tumor markers evaluation and sonography is important.

Abstract

Background and purpose: Northern Iran has a high incidence for squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of esophagus, therefore, studying esophageal SCC in different regions of Iran could prepare data for evidence-based and cost effective programs. This study aimed to evaluate esophageal carcinoma in Babol, Northern Iran during 8 years.

Materials and methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted in all patients underwent upper endoscopy during 2005-2013 in Babol Shahid Beheshti Hospital. Demographic, endoscopic and pathologic features were analyzed in SPSS V16 and P<0.05 was declared as significant.

Results: A total of 8963 patients underwent endoscopy of whom 148 (1.65%) were diagnosed with esophageal carcinoma, including 92 male (61.75%) and 56 female (37.8%). The patients’ mean age was 71±11.6 years (ranging from 38 to 91 years of age). Ten patients (14.8%) and 138 patients (85.2%) were diagnosed with esophageal adenocarcinoma and SCC, respectively. Locations of tumors were determined in upper (31.6%), middle (19.6%), and lower (43%) parts of esophagus.

Conclusion: Dysphagia was the most common symptom and lower part of esophagus was the most common site for carcinoma. In this study, there was no gender significance in the incidence of esophageal carcinoma and the number of male and female patients were almost similar. Also, there was no correlation between smoking and opium and esophageal carcinoma which should be investigated in further studies.
