Elimination of Human Papillomavirus and Cervical Pathological Microbiota with Photodynamic Therapy in Women from Mexico City with Cervical Intraepithelial Neoplasia I.

Cervical carcinoma (CC) is the second cause of cancer death in Mexican women. It starts with premalignant lesions known as Intraepithelial Cervical Neoplasia (CIN) that can develop due to infection by Human Papillomavirus (HPV) and other microorganisms. Current CIN therapy involves invasive methods that affect cervix integrity and fertility; we propose the use of photodynamic therapy (PDT) as a strategy with few side effects.

Effectiveness of Photodynamic Therapy in Elimination of HPV-16 and HPV-18 Associated with CIN I in Mexican Women.

This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of photodynamic therapy (PDT), using δ-aminolevulinic acid (5-ALA), in the elimination of premalignant cervical lesions in Mexican patients with human papillomavirus (HPV) infection and/or cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN). Thirty women diagnosed with CIN I and/or positive for HPV participated in the study. Topical 6% 5-ALA in gel form was applied to the uterine cervix; after 4 h, the lesion area was irradiated with a light dose of 200 J cm at 635 nm.

[Anomalous origin of the left coronary artery from the opposite breast. Pathological case].

Background: Anomalous origin of the left coronary artery from right coronary sinus ACAOS is characterized because the left main coronary artery anomalously originates from the right sinus of valsalva aortic coronary and whose journey can follow four different paths to the left side of the heart.

Case Report: A 73 years old men, who was admitted at the hospital for chest pain of oppressive type, intensity 10/10 with irradiation to left arm and neck, accompanied by diaphoresis and nausea. The diagnosis was an ischemic syndrome acute coronary undergo therapy thrombolytic, the evolution was not satisfactory due to different complications that led to the death.

[Acute myocardial infarction due to pheochromocytoma].

Background: pheochromocytoma is a neuroendocrine tumor that secretes high levels of catecholamines and it is able to exert serious cardiovascular effects. The cardiac involvement is the most frequent, with reported conditions such as transient myocardial dysfunction, acute coronary syndrome and ventricular arrhythmias.

Clinical Case: we reported a 36 year-old woman without cardiovascular history.

[Two clinical cases of sporadic lymphangioleiomyomatosis].

Lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM) is a rare lung disease of unknown etiology, described since 1918 associated with tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC-LAM) and are reported sporadically (S-LAM). It is classified within the group of interstitial lung diseases (ILD) and currently the European Respiratory Society (ERS) has published guidelines for diagnosis and treatment. The objective is to evaluate the clinical presentation of two patients, evolution, management, and review of current treatment.
