Levantamento Epidemiológico Dos Diagnósticos Histopatológicos De Um Centro De Referência Em Patologia Bucomaxilofacial Em Um Período De 10 Anos

Abstract

The Epidemiological investigation of the diseases affecting the maxillofacial structures is of fundamental importance to the dental clinic. However, few studies on this subject have been published in the literature, despite its relevance to the viability of health programs. In this context, the objective of this work was to assess the frequency and the main types of diseases that are commonly biopsied and sent to the Pathology Department, School of Dentistry from EBMSP. By conducting a retrospective study covering the data collected during the years 2001 to 2010, 1.095 biopsies were evaluated. Considering the histopathological diagnosis of each case, it was also evaluated the frequency of pathological lesions, the overall distribution of the samples by sex and age, lesion location, and clinical and histopathological diagnosis. The most frequent diagnoses were fibroepithelial hyperplasia (16.62%), nonspecific chronic inflammation (6.30%) and radicular cyst / residual (4.87%). The importance of searching for the correct diagnosis of the pathology presented by the patient is so relevant as the choice of methods and techniques to be used in their elimination or control. It is clear that a better and more accurate diagnosis contributes to a well developed treatment.

Diagnóstico histopatológico de lesiones orales de la mesorregión agreste del estado de Pernambuco

“…No presente estudo, se observou que a maioria das lesões diagnosticadas no serviço pertenciam ao grupo do processos proliferativos não neoplásicos, o que coincide com os estudos realizados por outros autores (1,(9)(10)(11)(12)(13)(14)(15). Isso pode ser justificado por fatores traumáticos, próteses mal adaptadas e má higiene oral, frequentemente observados nos pacientes, sobretudo os da zona rural (9).…”

“…O conhecimento, por parte dos dentistas, das principais manifestações de lesões orais, pode contribuir para um diagnóstico precoce de doenças graves, melhorando assim, o prognóstico do paciente (9,23). No presente estudo, a maioria dos casos teve coerência na hipótese diagnóstica quando comparada ao diagnóstico histológico, corroborando os achados outros autores (11,24).…”
