Summary: Introduction: Fractures of the zygomatic complex with its accompanying functional and esthetic deficits are a fairly common phenomenon in the practice of maxillofacial and plastic surgery. The purpose of this paper is to provide a review, based on collected data, on the topic of “fractured zygoma”. The review is presented under the headings of epidemiology, fracture patterns, treatment modalities and complications. Throughout the paper comparison is made with published data from around the world. Methods: A 10-year retrospective audit was undertaken of all hospitalized patients, at the department of maxillo facial and plastic surgery in Charles Nicolle Hospital (Tunisia), who had sustained a fractured zygoma from 1995 to 2004. Results: A total of 356 fractures were sustained. Patients in the third decade of life (34%) recorded the highest incidence. The sex distribution is markedly higher for males than for females (9/1). Road traffic accidents (31%) were the predominant etiology. Tetrapod fractures (43.7%) were the most frequent type of fractures followed by zygomatic arch fractures (34.53%). Cases were managed by either closed or open reduction. Percutaneous reduction was the commonest technique employed. However, in unstable fractures necessitated open reduction, transosseous wiring was the most frequently employed fixation. Patients were followed-up routinely, for an average of nine months. Inferior orbital nerve dysfunctions were seen in 8.7% of cases. Discussion: Epidemiological findings are similar to those reported in the literature. Males sustained more fractures than females and road traffic accidents were the commonest cause of zygomatic fractures. Open reduction and internal fixation is advocated for the unstable, markedly displaced or comminuted fractures. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]

Abstract: Externalizing behaviour is related to hard to manage behaviour in children and adolescents displaying agitation, impulsivity, aggressiveness or non compliance. Numerous pediatric and psychiatric counseling situations for children and adolescents are motivated by such behaviour patterns. The current paper presents an etiological multi factorial framework for these patterns focusing on epigenetic and developmental background. It provides neurological, psychodynamic and developmental theoretical purposes. The developmental theory designs the child development through a sequence of stages and suggests the importance of its interactions with life environments: attachment figures — its parents —, siblings and peers. The diagnostic process is examined by mean of differential diagnostic and by highlighting importance of multidisciplinary assessment procedure. The paper finally proposes a brief review of available treatments for children, adolescents and their family. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]

Résumé Les symptômes des enfants d’âge préscolaire, suite à une agression sexuelle, ne sont pas aussi bien documentés que pour d’autres groupes d’âges. Notre compréhension de leur expérience est limitée tant sur le plan des conséquences associées à l’agression sexuelle qu’en termes d’efficacité des interventions. Cette limite s’explique en partie par le fait que ces enfants représentent un sous-groupe pour lequel il est particulièrement ardu de valider les allégations d’agression sexuelle. D’autres limites sur le plan du développement cognitif et de la compréhension de sujets complexes tels que la sexualité représentent également des défis importants. L’évaluation des interventions auprès de ce sous-groupe se doit donc d’être une priorité dans le domaine. L’objectif de cet article est de discuter des enjeux liés à l’application d’une approche cognitivo-comportementale soit la Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT ; Cohen et al., 2006) auprès des enfants d’âge préscolaire victimes d’agression sexuelle et de présenter les résultats d’une étude pilote réalisée auprès d’un échantillon de 25 enfants. Les résultats obtenus témoignent d’effets positifs liés à la participation à la TF-CBT tant chez les enfants que chez les parents. Ainsi, les difficultés de comportements intériorisés et extériorisés de même que les symptômes de dissociation des enfants diminuent après les séances de thérapie. Nous avons également observé une réduction significative de la détresse psychologique et des symptômes de stress post-traumatique chez les parents. Une relance réalisée un an après l’évaluation initiale révèle que les gains thérapeutiques se maintiennent à travers le temps. L’expérience clinique soulève des enjeux propres à l’intervention auprès des jeunes d’âge préscolaire qui sont discutés. Summary Symptoms of preschoolers following sexual abuse are not as well documented as for other age groups. This is true both in terms of the associated consequences as well as treatment outcomes. This limitation may be related to the fact that preschoolers represent a subgroup for which it is particularly challenging to substantiate sexual abuse allegations. Younger children also represent a challenge in intervention due to their level of cognitive development and their limited ability to comprehend such complex topics such as sexuality. Assessing the effects of interventions with this subgroup of children therefore represents a priority in the field. The aim of this paper is to discuss the challenges inherent to the implementation of a cognitive behavioral treatment, namely the Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT; Cohen et al., 2006) with sexually abused preschoolers and to present the results of a pilot study assessing it's effects with a sample of 25 children. Results reveal positive outcomes related to treatment participation both in children and in their accompanying parent. Preschoolers have demonstrated a significant decrease in internalised and externalised behavior problems as well as a decrease in dissociation symptoms. A significant decrease in psychological distress and post-traumatic stress symptoms was also observed in children's parents following therapy. A follow-up assessment conducted 1 year following the initial assessment revealed that therapeutic gains were maintained over time. Clinical experience highlights specific challenges with preschoolers that are discussed in terms of treatment adaptation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract: When adolescents are severely disturbed and need to be treated, it is always a challenge to create a therapeutic setting which allows them to stay in treatment for an extended period of time. Despite the diversification of the therapeutic approaches these last 50 years, it is still a problem to bring an adolescent to accept psychical care and motive him to follow the treatment after the first session. In 1983, in a paper “Depressive adolescence, pathology of narcissism and therapeutic chess”, Ladame underlines the difficulty of treating narcissistic fragile adolescents for whom any trade with objects is felt to be a potential danger for their vulnerable identity. However these difficulties should not be prohibitive and clinical experience with severly disturbed adolescents led us to experiment and offer setting adjustments of psychodynamic therapies to make them tolerable to their narcissistic needs. We shall illustrate such setting adjustments with some highlights of a treatment started with this strange request “Could you make me an therapy ambulante?” (In french, it is a sort of condensation of ambulatoire which is an out-patient facility and ambulant meaning walking. We will try to pinpoint major obstacles in pursuit of treatments as well as advantages, risks and limits also of such adaptations. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]

Abstract: The field of knowledge on autism has deeply changed within a decade. We know more about the different kinds of pervasive developmental disorders, on their incidence, on the clinical aspects of onset of autism, on the possibility of early detection, as soon as 18 months of age, on the frequency of neurological and genetic disorders which may be associated with autism, and on the necessity of an early intervention. New media, as video, are useful to enhance assessment and therapeutic follow-up. Research allow for a therapeutic follow-up that goes further than the splitting between educative and psychodynamic trends of thoughts. However, prognosis in autism is still a difficult issue, and therapeutic efficiency is still globally low. This paper is not a literature review on pervasive disorders in general or particularly in autism, but aims at highlighting some new aspects which may be of interest for both clinicians and researchers on these several issues, about children up to 3 years of age.
