We have analyzed 93 pregnant women with Papanicolaou smears suggesting human papillomavirus (HPV) infection (Schneider et al's criteria) with the purpose of studying the effect of maternal age, stage of pregnancy and number of pregnancies on the incidence of this infection. The control group consisted of 93pregnant women with Papanicolaou smears not suggestive of HPV infection. The results demonstrated that HPV infection is associated with pregnant women under 20 years of age, but no differences were found regarding stage and number of pregnancies.

Chronic appendicitis might simulate several diseases, making clinical management difficult. We report the case of a 9-year-old girl with an abdominal pain for 13 months. Ultrasound and tomography showed an expansive mass in the lower abdomen. It was extremely difficult to establish the diagnosis because the symptoms, laboratory results and images were inconclusive. The definitive diagnosis occurred only after laparotomy. We discuss in the present article several differential diagnoses for chronic appendicitis, mainly gynecological malformations, endometriosis, neoplasias and pseudotumors.
