You can only pass the name of a single object to getitem. If you wish to
pass the parent object, you need to do two separate getitems like:

<dtml-with expr="_.getitem('MedSaude')">
    <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('base',_.getitem('sintoma'))">
</dtml-with>

If I may, what is the reason for this arbitrary object retrieval? I
sense there is an easier way to accomplish what you need with jumping
through these hoops.
