RESUMO
AIM: Allergy to materials used during root canal treatment is well recognized in the endodontic literature. However, allergy to Ledermix paste, a compound containing triamcinolone (a corticosteroid) and demeclocycline (a tetracycline antibiotic), has not been reported apart from one very recent case in a Letter to the Editor of a journal. The aim of this report is to describe a proven allergic reaction to tetracycline following the use of Ledermix paste as a root canal medicament. SUMMARY: A 33-year-old female patient undergoing root canal retreatment of her right mandibular second premolar tooth experienced symptoms of type 1 allergy following the placement of an intracanal medicament containing a mixture of Ledermix paste and calcium hydroxide [Ca(OH)2 ]. Signs of the type 1 allergy included urticaria, pruritus all over the body, general malaise and fever. These all subsided after removing and flushing out the Ledermix paste-Ca(OH)2 mixture and redressing the root canal with Ca(OH)2 alone. Allergic scratch tests were performed, and these confirmed that the patient was allergic to tetracycline, one of the components of Ledermix paste.

Hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy type 1X (HMSN 1X) is the second most frequent form of demyelinating polyneuropathies and is caused by mutations in the gene for connexin 32 protein (Cx32, GJB1). The contribution of HMSN 1X to the structure of HMSN in the Republic of Bashkortostan was determined. The GJB1 mutations were detected in 18 out of 131 unrelated patients, which constituted 13.7%. The four missense mutations identified were represented by: Pro87Ala (c.259C>G) with the frequency of 10%; Arg22Gln (c.65G>A) (2.98%); Arg15Gln (c.44G>A); and Thr86Ile (c.257CAssuntos
