The treatment of nasopharyngeal angiofibroma (NAF) is surgical. Various approaches have been described, but due to its lower morbidity and the use of magnification and angled views, the endoscopic-assisted endonasal technique is the most commonly used. The likelihood of achieving complete resection is similar to or better than that of external approaches. Objectives. To describe the clinical, endoscopic, and imaging outcomes of endonasal endoscopic surgery for nasopharyngeal angiofibroma, evaluated in terms of overall local control and tumor stage. Population and methods. A descriptive, retrospective study that included patients treated for NAF using an endonasal approach with endoscopes between March 2012 and November 2024. Results. Eighteen patients were included. The Radkowski staging of the NAFs was as follows: stage I-A: 1; I-B: 3; II-A: 3; II-B: 1; II-C: 4; III-A: 3; and III-B: 3. Three of the 18 patients underwent reoperation due to the presence of residual tumor, using the same endonasal approach (21 endonasal approaches with endoscopes). Conclusion. The overall local control achieved in patients treated for NAF via an endonasal endoscopic approach was 72.22%; local control by stage was as follows: I-A: 1/1, I-B: 3/3, II-A: 3/3, II-B: 1/1, III-A: 1/3, and III-B: 0/3. Complete resolution of nasal obstruction and epistaxis was achieved in all patients. In none of the cases did we need to switch to an external approach due to difficulties with visualization or exposure.","PeriodicalId":8338,"journal":{"name":"Archivos argentinos de pediatria","volume":" ","pages":"e202510889"},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2026-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148148276","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Human papillomavirus (HPV) is a prevalent sexually transmitted infection and major cause of cervical and anogenital cancers. This study aimed to assess parental knowledge, vaccine hesitancy, and health beliefs concerning HPV infection and vaccination. Methods. This cross-sectional study was conducted using convenience sampling among parents of adolescents aged 9-18 attending outpatient clinics at a tertiary hospital. The study collected sociodemographic characteristics and used the Health Belief Model Scale for HPV Infection and Vaccination to assess health beliefs, in order to identify factors associated with parental perceptions and vaccination attitudes. Results. A total of 320 parents participated in the study; 82.8% were mothers. Self-reported HPV infection was low (1.9%), and only 3.4% of parents and 2.8% of their children had been vaccinated. Awareness about HPV infection was 75%, and that of the HPV vaccine was 67.2%. However, only 30% of parents were willing to vaccinate their children, while 47.5% were uncertain. The most commonly reported barriers were lack of awareness (33.9%) and concerns about side effects (26.4%). Higher parental education, family income, and prior HPV knowledge were positively associated with both awareness and willingness to vaccinate children, whereas having multiple adolescents was associated with increased vaccine hesitancy. Conclusion. Parental awareness of HPV infection and vaccination was 75% and 67.2%, respectively, while vaccination rates among adolescents were very low. Higher parental education, income, and prior HPV knowledge were associated with favorable perceptions of vaccination. Addressing knowledge gaps and reducing perceived barriers through educational interventions may help increase HPV vaccination uptake among adolescents.","PeriodicalId":8338,"journal":{"name":"Archivos argentinos de pediatria","volume":" ","pages":"e202611021"},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2026-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148263181","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Birth weight is an indicator of perinatal health that is influenced by social, environmental, and health-related factors. The objective of this study is to analyze changes in birth weight indicators (birth weight, low birth weight, and small for gestational age) between 2009 and 2021, specifically in two municipalities in the southern region of the Buenos Aires Metropolitan Area (AMBA, by its Spanish acronym). Population and methods. We conducted a retrospective observational study using secondary data on live births collected by the Directorate of Health Statistics and Information (DEIS, by its Spanish acronym) of the Ministry of Health. Trends in birth weight, low birth weight (LBW, <2500 g), and small for gestational age (SGA, <10th percentile) were evaluated using joinpoint regression, and associations with maternal age and educational level were analyzed using a mixed-effects model. Results. Based on a database of 141 525 cases, a moderate upward trend in birth weight was observed, which was statistically significant (p < 0.05) in only one municipality. The proportion of cases born with indicators of low birth weight showed a significant reduction over time (p < 0.05), more pronounced for SGA (~4% annually) than for LBW (~1% annually). In addition, a nonlinear association was found between maternal age and birth weight, and a positive association with maternal educational level (p < 0.001). Conclusion. This analysis provides up-to-date information on birth weight indicators and their maternal determinants in two municipalities in the southern part of the AMBA.","PeriodicalId":8338,"journal":{"name":"Archivos argentinos de pediatria","volume":" ","pages":"e202510885"},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2026-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148026278","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
