antibacterial component (for the treatment of purulent inflammation), as well as cerumenolytics for cleaning of the external auditory meatus and the prevention of external otitis and conductive hearing loss. Within 6 months of observation a positive tendency was noted.The child was referred to a geneticist. Mutation was detected in exon 2 of the EDA genec.466C> T in a homozygous state and the diagnosis of hypohydrotic ectoderm dysplasia was confirmed. Vaccination against Str.Pneumoniae and H. influenzae type b was recommended for the prevention of frequent respiratory infections. Conclusions The treatment of children with hypohydrotic ectoderm dysplasia is complex and includes thorough skin and mucous membrane care, vaccination to prevent respiratory infections and development of complications. For early diagnosis and the correct treatment of patients, the awareness of pediatricians and other specialists of the symptoms of rare hereditary diseases as well as interaction with geneticists are of utmost importance.
Considering previous reactions, laboratory findings and results of the oral challenge test, we suggest that our patient meets the criteria for DIES by amoxicillin. We performed a comprehensive literature search and found three cases of DIES reported in children and one in an adult patient who developed a severe reaction with shock.In our opinion, the clinical awareness on DIES and its potential severity should be improved and it is important to distinguish it from side effect of the drug.
PURPOSE: To evaluate the HPV vaccine coverage in adolescents and young adults relatives of women with cervical cancer. METHOD: A Prospective study held in the oncology department at a tertiary referral Hospital, using an adapted form. RESULTS: Epidemiological data were collected from 102 women with CC and 59 family members between 9-21 years. The degree of kinship between these young woman and cancer patients treated at the Hospital in the study was daughter (56%), sister (3%), niece (22%) and granddaughter (19%). Most of these girls (81%) were instructed to carry out HPV prevention, with the school (39%) being the main responsible for promoting vaccination. Regarding the reasons for not performing the immunization, the lack of information about the vaccine was the most mentioned (63%). When asking the girls relatives if they would vaccinate their daughters, 17% said they would not and none of these relatives knew the function of the vaccine. CONCLUSION: despite advances in HPV vaccination programs, there is still a great deal of misinformation about the topic in the population, especially among family members of the target audience. The school was identified as the protagonist in access to information and can be used as a means of access to the vaccine for young women and information for their families.
