The aim of this study was to perform an incidence and morphometry of the caroticoclinoid foramen in Brazilian human skulls and discuss its clinical implications. Eighty dry human skulls with sex distinction were used, and 3 groups of incidence were determined: General, sex, and sides. The morphometry was performed using a manual caliper and the major diameter of the foramina was measured; the values were also divided in general, according to sex and sides. The incidence of skulls with at least one foramen was 8.5%. According to the sides, 8.5% of the skulls showed foramen on the right side and 2.5% on the left. We found 2.5% of the skulls with bilateral foramen and 6.25% with unilateral foramen. In relation to sex, the foramens were found in 5% of male skulls and 12.5% of female skulls. The major diameter of this structure presented on mean, values of 5.23 mm on general, 5.18 mm on the right side and 5.35 mm on the left, 5.30 mm in male skulls and 5.18 mm in female skulls. The anatomical characteristics of this foramen should be considered in view of its clinical implications associated with neurosurgery as clinoid process removal, and symptoms as headache due to internal carotid artery alterations in this region. In conclusion knowledge of this structure supports the diagnosis and treatment of clinical complications related to this variation.

O objetivo do presente trabalho e relatar dois casos clinicos de sindrome de Frey e sindrome das lagrimas de crocodilo, visando diagnostico, acompanhamento e escolha do tratamento adequado. Caso 1 – Sindrome de Frey: paciente 38 anos de idade, genero feminino, vitima de queda de propria altura com trauma em face. Sem tracos de fratura ao exame clinico e radiografico, leve algia em regiao de articulacao temporo-mandibular direita a mastigacao, rubor e sudorese na regiao auriculotemporal ao se alimentar. O tratamento foi somente conservador com remissao total dos sintomas. Caso 2 – Sindrome das lagrimas de crocodilo: paciente genero feminino, com historico de paralisia de Bell, lacrimejamento do olho esquerdo no ato da mastigacao e ausencia de dor. A paciente opto...

Estas atividades muitas vezes contam com a colaboracao de outras Instituicoes Publicas parceiras. No intuito de sensibilizar os menores e seus familiares sobre a importância da saude e dos cuidados que devemos ter em nosso dia-a-dia conosco, nossos familiares e aqueles que estao a nossa volta, aproximando os membros de uma comunidade para se desenvolverem juntos, com a colaboracao dos diferentes atores da sociedade. Houve grande interesse e participacao da comunidade do Jardim Alvorada-SP e melhora no IHOS das criancas e jovens participantes. A Universidade cumpre assim seu papel de gerar e divulgar conhecimentos, ao mesmo tempo em que forma profissionais que, conhecedores da realidade da populacao, buscam levar efetivos beneficios a mesma.

The sensitive portion takes to the Nervous System Central somesthesics information from the skin and mucous membrane of great area of the face, being responsible also for a neural disease, known as the Trigeminal Neuralgia. The aim of this study was to review the literature on the main characteristics of Trigeminal Neuralgia, the relevant aspects for the diagnosis and treatment options for this pathology. This neuralgia is characterized by hard pains and sudden, similar to electric discharges, with duration between a few seconds to two minutes, in the trigeminal nerve sensorial distribution. The pain is unchained by light touches in specific points in the skin of the face or for movements of the facial muscles, it can be caused by traumatic sequels or physiologic processes degenerative associate the vascular compression. Prevails in the senior population, frequently in the woman. In a unilateral way it attacks more the maxillary and mandibular divisions, rarely happens in a simultaneous way in the three branches of trigeminal nerve three branches.

Material and Methods: 100 dried human mandibles (29 females and 71 males) were analyzed, aged 18 to 60 years. The mandibles were evaluated on their right and left sides. The foramens were evaluated being accessory mental foramen or double mental foramen. All data were analyzed using the GraphPAD Prism v.8 software (San Diego, CA, USA). Descriptive statistics (in %) and the chi-square test (χ2) were performed to compare the incidence of each foramen between the sexes and the sides. The probability value ≤ 0.05 was defined as the level of significance. Results: of the 71 male mandibles, the incidence was 16.9% for the accessory mental foramen, and 22.53% for the double mental foramen. Of the 29 female mandibles, the incidence was 10.34% for the accessory mental foramen, and 24.13% for the double mental foramen. There were 12% of the accessory mental foramen on the right side and 3% on the left side. And 11% of the double mental foramen on the right side and 12% on the left side. The chi-square test revealed that there was no statistically significant difference for both sex (P value: 0.7066) and for the side (P value: 0.0818). Conclusion: the incidence of accessory and double mental foramen in the studied sample must be considered given the importance of knowledge of the anatomy of these foramina during the execution of anaesthetic and surgical procedures in Dentistry.
