Resumo: O hipoparatireoidismo caracteriza-se por ser uma doença de cunho metabólico que implica na deficiência de cálcio sérico e pode ocasionar manifestações sistêmicas, incluindo calcificações cerebrais. Como método, foi realizado acompanhamento de caso clinico longitudinal, somando-se ao embasamento teórico em referências bibliográficas. O caso relatado e as publicações estudadas demonstram a importância de debater sobre o hipoparatireoidismo e suas consequências, evidenciando a necessidade de novos estudos, a fim de encontrar tratamento e diagnóstico precoce para a doença. O presente estudo trata-se de um relato de caso de uma paciente de 61 anos do sexo feminino que apresentou hipoparatireiodismo com posteriores calcificações dos gânglios da base e córtex cerebral. Assim, busca-se abordar os aspectos clínicos e diagnósticos dessa condição e suas consequências, destacando a importância do conhecimento das patologias para o seu diagnóstico e manejo precoce, além de agregar conhecimentos a literatura médica existente.

Perianal necrotizing fasciitis is a potentially life-threatening, explosive infectious disease that is difficult in early diagnosis and develops rapidly. It is often accompanied by systemic toxic shock and a large number of toxins even after the operation. After thorough wound surgery, an extensive open wound will form, deep and heal slowly. How to remove the residual toxins in the body after surgery, reduce the patient wound pain, shorten the healing time and improve the healing rate is the problem that clinicians need to solve at present. Traditional Chinese medicine in the treatment of wound healing has a unique theoretical basis and advantages, this paper systematically combed the recent literature on the PNF wound healing, respectively from traditional Chinese medicine, traditional Chinese medicine sitting bath, fumigation, Chinese medicine, Chinese medicine characteristic treatment to discuss and evaluation, put forward the problems existing in traditional Chinese medicine treatment, and look forward to promote PNF wound healing treatment.

Necrotizing fasciitis of the face and scalp is a severe bacterial infection that can result in long-term morbidity or even mortality if not properly managed. In a third-world country like Ghana, where most of the population relies on daily income for livelihood, citizens with diseases that have long-term morbidity suffer financial difficulty, particularly when the patient is the breadwinner.This brief clinical study demonstrates the severity of necrotizing fasciitis of the face and scalp originated from oral infection, and its capability to affect any part of the body if proper treatment is not established at early onset of disease. Correct diagnosis, patient education, early antibiotic treatment, and timely surgery are crucial for controlling infection and for preventing irreparable damage. Therefore, public education is crucial in preventing such infection by discouraging use of over-the-counter medication in such situations.
