Skeletal growth in normal and pathological conditions.

The authors describe the morphological and functional differences between the various systems of enchondral ossification of the metaphysis and epiphysis of the long bones, the short bones and the zones of insertion of tendons and ligaments. They discuss the relationships between the various types of enchondral ossification, the rates of skeletal growth and a number of orthopaedic growth disorders. In deformity of the lower limb, skeletal growth produces spontaneous correction in the majority of cases. Spinal abnormalities, on the other hand, tend to deteriorate during the period of rapid growth of the trunk.

[Necrosis of the tongue secondary to Horton's disease].

Horton's disease is a generalized vascular disease characterized by giant cell arteritis. Medium and small-sized arteries are the most affected and involvement of the lingual arteries leading to lingual infarction and partial necrosis of the tongue is exceptional. We describe these complications in a 82-year-old female with histologically proved Horton's disease, and review the literature on the topic.

[Prophylactic antibiotic therapy with amoxicillin-clavulanic acid in oropharyngeal surgery].

The present paper shows the results of a randomized, prospective trial carried out on 170 patients undergoing elective surgery for oropharyngeal cancer. These patients were distributed in two groups that received a prophylactic therapy with amoxicillin and clavulanic acid, for 24 hours and 5 days, respectively. Comparing results of short-term and long-term prophylaxis. Among patients undergoing only total or partial laryngectomies, no differences between both groups were found. Among patients who already had a tracheostomy, the rate of local infection was higher in the short-time group. Duration of prophylaxis in high-risk surgery, such as that requiring flap reconstruction, needs further investigation.
