1. A novel upper tract ureteroscopic biopsy technique: the “form tackle”
ABSTRACT Introduction and Objective: Upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC) represents 5% of all urothelial malignancies (1–3). Accurate pathologic diagnosis is key and may direct treatment decisions. Current ureteroscopic biopsy techniques include cold-cup, backloaded cold-cup and stone basket (4–6). The study objective was to compare a standard cold-

2. Gene panel for the diagnosis of epidermolysis bullosa: proposal for a viable and efficient approach,
Abstract Background: Epidermolysis bullosa is characterized by cutaneous fragility and blistering. Historically, diagnosis is achieved by immunofluorescence mapping or transmission electron microscopy, both involving biopsy procedures. Genetic analysis, especially through next-generation sequencing, is an important tool for the diagnosis of this disease. In

5. RECOMMENDATIONS FOR INVASIVE PROCEDURES IN PATIENTS WITH DISEASES OF THE LIVER AND BILIARY TRACT: REPORT OF A JOINT MEETING OF THE BRAZILIAN SOCIETY OF HEPATOLOGY (SBH), BRAZILIAN SOCIETY OF DIGESTIVE ENDOSCOPY (SOBED) AND BRAZILIAN SOCIETY OF INTERVENTIONAL RADIOLOGY AND ENDOVASCULAR SURGERY (SOBRICE)
RESUMO As doenças do fígado e das vias biliares são causas comuns de morbidade e mortalidade. Procedimentos invasivos com finalidade diagnóstica e terapêutica são frequentemente recomendados nos casos de doenças hepatobiliares. O reconhecimento das indicações e limitações das técnicas comumente empregadas é crucial para uma adequada seleção do

6. Pre-hospitalization, hospitalization, and post-hospitalization costs of patients with neurocysticercosis treated at the Instituto Nacional de Neurologia y Neurocirugia (INNN) in Mexico City, Mexico
ABSTRACT The objective of this study was to estimate the direct costs associated with the diagnosis and treatment of neurocysticercosis (NCC) during pre-hospitalization, hospitalization, and post-hospitalization periods for 108 NCC patients treated at the Instituto Nacional de Neurologia y Neurocirugia (INNN) in Mexico City, Mexico. Information on clinical m

7. Efficiency of noninvasive sampling methods (swab) together with Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) for diagnosing American Tegumentary Leishmaniasis
ABSTRACT Traditional diagnostic methods used to detect American Tegumentary Leishmaniasis, such as histopathology using biopsy samples, culture techniques, and direct search for parasites, have low sensitivity and require invasive collection procedures. This study evaluates the efficiency of noninvasive sampling methods (swab) along with Polymerase Chain Rea

8. Costs of genetic testing: Supporting Brazilian Public Policies for the incorporating of molecular diagnostic technologies
This study identifies and describes the operating costs associated with the molecular diagnosis of diseases, such as hereditary cancer. To approximate the costs associated with these tests, data informed by Standard Operating Procedures for various techniques was collected from hospital software and a survey of market prices. Costs were established for four

9. Thyroid nodule: first manifestation of chronic lymphocytic leukaemia
The presence of chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL) cells in the thyroid gland is most likely due to a secondary involvement by a systemic disease. The reported incidence of CLL involving the thyroid is extremely low, representing about 3–4% of all thyroid lymphoproliferative neoplasm. We report a rare case of CLL presenting initially in the thyroid gland.

10. Endoscopia digestiva alta na rede pública de saúde : diagnósticos de lesões do tubo digestivo alto em uma população de atendimento primário na região sudoeste do município de Campinas, São Paulo - Brasil = Endoscopy in public health : diagnoses of lesions in the upper digestive tract in a population of primary care in the region southwest of the city of Campinas, São Paulo - Brazil / Endoscopy in public health : diagnoses of lesions in the upper digestive tract in a population of primary care in the region southwest of the city of Campinas, São Paulo - Brazil
Upper digestive tract endoscopy (UDTE) is one of the most highly indicated exams for the investigation of upper digestive tract diseases. It is normally performed in high-complexity hospitals and specialized clinics; however, the high demand for UDTE examinations and the growing number of professionals specializing in endoscopic techniques have resulted in a

11. Diagnóstico de sífilis em lesões orais. Estudo comparativo utilizando-se as técnicas histoquímica e imuno-histoquímica / Diagnosis of syphilis in oral lesions. A comparative study using techniques of histochemistry and immunohistochemistry
A sífilis é uma doença infecciosa, cujo agente etiológico é o Treponema pallidum. Pode ser transmitida sexualmente ou verticalmente, via placenta. Seus estágios variam entre sífilis primária, sífilis secundária, sífilis latente e sífilis congênita. Dentre os diagnósticos mais eficazes, encontram-se os testes sorológicos, porém os falsos posit

12. An update on the clinical assessment of the infertile male
Male infertility is directly or indirectly responsible for 60% of cases involving reproductive-age couples with fertility-related issues. Nevertheless, the evaluation of male infertility is often underestimated or postponed. A coordinated evaluation of the infertile male using standardized procedures improves both diagnostic precision and the results of subs
