    "Facomatosis tipo neurofibromatosis 1 o enfermedad de von recklinghausen en paciente pediátrico asintomático
    (Universidad Técnica de Ambato - Facultad de Ciencias de la Salud - Carrera de Medicina, 2019-10-01) Valle Ocando, Ana Karina; Paredes Lascano, Patricia Dra. Esp.
    Introducción: el término Neurofibromatosis (NF) abarca a un conjunto de enfermedades hereditarias incluidas en el grupo de facomatosis o patologías neurocutáneas, consideradas raras o huérfanas en nuestro país, que se identifican por la tendencia al desarrollo de neoplasias benignas a partir de estructuras derivadas del ectodermo. Tiene tres variantes, siendo la NF1, caracterizada principalmente por lesiones cutáneas y neurofibromas (tumores de origen nervioso), la más frecuente; la NF2, rara, con predominio de manifestaciones tumorales del sistema nervioso central y periférico sin lesiones cutáneas, y la NF3, la forma menos frecuente, que se distingue de los otros tipos por la presencia de tumores provenientes de las vainas nerviosas que se denominan schwannomas. Objetivo: Analizar el caso clínico de un paciente pediátrico asintomático con Facomatosis tipo Neurofibromatosis 1 o Enfermedad de Von Recklinghausen, en lo que concierne a su presentación clínica, diagnóstico, tratamiento y seguimiento, reportando las oportunidades de mejora para la identificación de Enfermedades raras o huérfanas en la Atención Primaria de Salud. Materiales y métodos: Caso clínico, análisis descriptivo y retrospectivo. Resultados: Paciente masculino de 9 años de edad, quien consultó para evaluación rutinaria como control de niño sano en el Hospital General Ambato–IESS. Durante su valoración se identificaron numerosas lesiones cutáneas generalizadas tipo máculas “café con leche”, así como efélides en región axilar, estableciéndose el diagnóstico de NF1 por presentar criterios clínicos de esta patología. Se le realizó estudios complementarios sin alteraciones hematológicas, mientras que en la resonancia magnética computarizada se evidenció lesión tipo neurofibroma localizado en bulbo raquídeo, confirmándose el diagnóstico. En la actualidad el paciente mantiene seguimiento por el servicio de pediatría y neurología. Conclusiones: La NF1 es una patología de presentación rara con una evolución benigna que por lo general no amerita tratamiento. No obstante, debido a las posibles implicaciones en la estética y funcionalidad del paciente se debe realizar diagnóstico precoz para hacer seguimiento adecuado tanto en Atención Primaria y hospitalaria como en especialidades. En consecuencia, posterior a establecer los puntos críticos en relación con el acceso a la atención médica, se caracterizaron las oportunidades de mejora en beneficio de futuros pacientes con sospecha o diagnóstico confirmado de NF1.

    Environmental pollution is defined as the chemical, chemical or biological components present in the environment that cause damage to living beings such as humans, being the main producer of this humanity, through its activity and work: factories, mining, oil , activity in which the air, water and earth are affected, which in the short, medium and long term is harmful to health, affected by physical and chemical imbalances, resulting in malformations, which affects since the embryonic implantation accompanied by alteration genetic and cellular until phenotypic alterations. Descriptive - observational study, which analyzes the relationship between environmental pollution and congenital malformations in newborns at the General Teaching Hospital Riobamba - Ecuador in a population of 253 infants, chosen by inclusion and exclusion criteria. Consult the PRAS 2018 database for review and analysis of the information. The documentary research has a legal and ethical basis for its respective execution, which facilitates access to the records of the care performed between February and November 2018, medical records, from the results with the team it was equated with the most complications important cases and their proximity to regions with poverty or environmental pollution (mining). A concentration of more numerous cases of Polydactyly and Low Weight at birth in the Parish of San Juan is evidenced with 38% and 89% respectively. In addition, it is the parish with the highest concentration of mining Total: 19 (nineteen). Consequently, environmental pollution in Columbe with 91% of cases of Fissure of the Palate would be associated with the presence of 8 mining companies in the sector. In conclusion, the positive relationship between the presence of congenital malformations due to environmental contamination can be affirmed. The recommendations that emerge from this research work would be associated with the priority attention of this problem correctly; establishing prevention strategies in order to avoid and reduce risks through the timely detection of places that could have special environmental characteristics in affected areas, promoting early intervention before treating pregnancies and ruling out fetal abnormalities

    The humoral primary immunodeficiencies, in this context, the Selective Immunodeficiency of IgG, is of vital importance even more when it is associated to pathologies such as Stevens - Johnson syndrome and respiratory allergies, due to the infrequent manifestation in pediatric patients, and due to the morbidity and mortality that it causes when it is not diagnosed early due to its very varied clinic. We report the case of a male patient who, since 3 years 11 months of age, has been followed up by the specialty of Immunology and Allergology in outpatient clinic due to a history of upper respiratory tract infections, and allergies to environmental components. , several consultations denote the selective decrease of IgG, which at the age of 5 years 8 months debuts with mucocutaneous dermatological lesions characterized by erythematous plaques with central bleb, in addition to symptoms and signs of pulmonary disease. The biopsy confirms the diagnosis for Stevens - Johnson syndrome, and the quantification of immunoglobulins confirms the Selective Immunodeficiency of IgG. The objective of this case report is to determine the importance of diagnosis and timely treatment in patients with immunodeficiency, to prevent, at the same time correlate the predisposition and susceptibility that this type of pathology entails.

    Currently for Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) the use of mechanical ventilation with low circulating volumes is recommended, together with positive end- expiratory pressure (PEEP). However, there are patients who persist hypoxemic and therefore should be used therapeutic to improve arterial oxygenation, where prone decubitus has been shown to be a safe technique capable of improving arterial oxygenation in ARDS, to date has not been generalized its use in intensive care units. The present clinical case investigation details the great utility of the prone position in ARDS
